if this goes down, Israel will strike Iran before the exhaust from the cruise missiles has even cleared the deck.
Just a prediction.
Yea, with Israel being our ally in the region I would guess they would be the direct targets of any recourse anyone wanted to send our way. So to assume Israel would launch a preemptive attack is within reason. Like everyone else is saying, if this thing goes down as it looks like it might right now, it can easily snowball into WWIII & quickly. Israel is willing to defend it's people with everything they have, Iran has been waiting for a excuse to make them a parking lot & while Russia is playing no sides, they are arming the Syrian government, have a port there & are not really happy with the US here as of recent thanks to king Obama. The elements of a huge blowout are looming.
