Tehran, rejects Israel's right to exist....I guess Israel is going to use those American bunker busters to dig irrigation canals eh;-)...lets hope Bush okays this special ops mission before the election and before Tehran's nuclear plant is finished. The nuclear waste from that so called nuclear power reactor for peaceful purposes would provide nuclear waste for dirty bombs and plutonium for nuclear WMDs. Fundamentalist mullahs bent on global jihad and the end of Israel must not be allowed access to nulcear power and nuclear materials.

Israel Weighs 'All Options' to Stop Iran Nuke Plan

By Dan Williams

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - A military strike is among Israel's options to prevent Iran from producing nuclear weapons, Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said on Wednesday in the latest threat by the Jewish state against its arch-foe.

Asked by a newspaper if Iranian atomic facilities could be bombed -- a tactic Israel used to destroy Iraq's main reactor in 1981 -- Mofaz said: "All options for preventing this (Tehran obtaining nuclear weapons) will be considered."

"The important thing is to stop the current (Iranian) regime reaching a nuclear option," Mofaz told Yedioth Ahronoth daily.

Iran says its nuclear program is being pursued solely to meet civilian energy needs.

But Tehran, which rejects Israel's right to exist, stirred world suspicion this month by defying calls by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) not to prepare raw uranium for enrichment -- a process that can be used to make atomic bombs.
