He will get a call right eventually if he keeps guessing.

Hope he does. The best scenario would be for both Iran and Israel to be destroyed. It would immediately make the region less hostile.

In that case Col McGregor is an idiot.

Everyone remember when I started a thread last weekend saying some posters on here are disappointed that WWIII didn't start when Iran sent missiles at Israel on Saturday?
Well, here's one now...
Nothing in his post suggests he's disappointed that WWIII did not erupt.

Everybody calling McGregor names need to admit that he is one of the few ex-millitary talking heads to tell us the truth about Ukraine.
Your watching to much CNN and FOX. And it might get you killed... or at least 12 dollar a gallon gas.

But your original post has quite literally NOTHING whatsover to do with Ukraine. It has to do with McGregor saying Bibi will go Nuclear, which is ludicrous.

It's about credibility based on past performance.
You are either underestimating Iran, or overestimating Israel if you think a mass missle attack of an order of magnitude far greater than this past weekend would not leave Israel devastated.
If Israel attacks Iranian territory to a significant degree, there will be a major response that will cause catastrophic damage in Israel. If Israel is taking catastrophic damage, and their air bases are extensively damaged, they might very well feel tempted to go nuclear.
In fact. They might have to go nuclear to stop the damage.
So the best thing to do is deescalate.

Irans Air Force is still mostly made up of old F-4’s. We’re talking Vietnam era aircraft left over from when the Shaw was in control. There have been 4 different generations of fighters since to get to the F-35 which the Israeli’s fly.
The Israeli are considered some of the best pilots in the world.

Iran needs use chemical weapons than nuclear weapons is an option.
Posted on 4/16/24 at 9:43 pm to RiverCityTider
it would be a hell of a way to get their enemies to stop fricking with them. they'd back up and take a pause before randomly launching rockets into Israel

Israel has been building nuclear weapons for 30 years. The Jews understand what passive and powerless acceptance of doom has meant for them in the past, and they have ensured against it. Masada was not an example to follow—it hurt the Romans not a whit, but Samson in Gaza? What would serve the Jew-hating world better in repayment for thousands of years of massacres but a Nuclear Winter. Or invite all those tut-tutting European statesmen and peace activists to join us in the ovens? For the first time in history, a people facing extermination while the world either cackles or looks away—unlike the Armenians, Tibetans, World War II European Jews or Rwandans—have the power to destroy the world. The ultimate justice?
aftermath of a second Holocaust", Israel could "bring down the pillars of the world (attack Moscow and European capitals for instance)" as well as the "holy places of Islam." He writes that "abandonment of proportionality is the essence" of the Samson Option.

quote:.
We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force. Let me quote General Moshe Dayan: 'Israel must be like a mad dog, too dangerous to bother.' I consider it all hopeless at this point. We shall have to try to prevent things from coming to that, if at all possible. Our armed forces, however, are not the thirtieth strongest in the world, but rather the second or third. We have the capability to take the world down with us. And I can assure you that that we wont go down alone."
Martin van Creveld
Israeli Military Historian
In the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Arab forces were overwhelming Israeli forces and Prime Minister Golda Meir authorized a nuclear alert and ordered 13 atomic bombs be readied for use by missiles and aircraft. The Israeli Ambassador informed President Nixon that "very serious conclusions" may occur if the United States did not airlift supplies. Nixon complied. This is seen by some commentators on the subject as the first threat of the use of the Samson Option
