The Current Status of the Conflict in Iraq

[Odin]

Israel has, and has had for many years, the capability to overcome air defenses and strike multiple targets within Iran. This is fairly common knowledge. The US presence in Iraq only makes this easier. I'm not sure where you're coming from Tribes. Israel does have the refueling capability and they've never respected Arab airspace so those two arguments are slightly off base.

come on PJ your blowing the whole thing.

Of course , since the airstikes will require at least two inflights which lengthens the time and size of the package considerably , unless they go the really long way round on the way back (which would beyond their refueling capability anyway).

He made an absolute statement here, let him back it up with a reference, you posting bails him out (unless he has the source to verify his statement of fact).

My bet is it will be a series of but tribes has surprised me before with well thought out verifiable positions on other issues. I personally think he's fishing on this one but let him be the one to either dig the hole deeper or support his statement.

He would expect the same from you wouldnt he?
