LH,

"I just do not consider them a serious strategic threat to either Israel or the USA, that's all. They lack that capability."

And why not? I have posted articles that show that they HAVE the delivery system, and 20kg of fissionable material is not that hard to get. Lots easier when you have tons of lower level enriched fuel to camaflage the weapons grade...





"Do you seriously think Iran would risk attacking Israel with WMD, knowing how Israel is armed to retaliate? I don't."

Well, most of the world seems to disagree with you. IMO, Iran would attack Israel even if it was certain that it would lose 60% of it's population- they be martyrs, like the children setting off mines in front of troops.

ANY nuclear attack on Israel would certainly kill most, if not all Palestinians from fallout- even if Israel does nothing. I do not like genocide.

A single weapon could take out 60% of the population, and 80% of the industry of Israel- If you were them, would you let someone who states that his goal is the destruction of Israel have that weapon?
