Israeli threats to strike Iran

An Israeli security official on Thursday threatened to direct a military blow to Tehran, including the Iranian nuclear reactor, if Iran owns a nuclear weapon, noting that this matter constitutes a direct threat to the existence of Israel.

A high ranking Israeli security source told the Israeli daily Yadhout Ahronot on Thursday evening at its Internet site:" we can not stay standstill towards Iran's having a nuclear weapon, and therefore we can prevent it from getting it as we did before, as we can surprise them by our attacks for ten times, as he claimed.

The source added, we have prevented the Iraqis before from getting these weapons and we can also do the same with the Iranians.
