 IsraelNationalNews.com by Tzvi Ben Gedalyahu:  A week of rumors that Israel plans to attack Iran has prompted a warning that it can deal Israel a "crushing response" and that any Israeli aggression against the Islamic Republic would be reciprocated with a destructive reprisal.  Responding to repetition in the media that Israel has decided that the "military option" is the only way to stop Iran from possessing a nuclear weapon, an Iranian legislator was quoted by the state-run Fars News Agency as saying, "Before (being able to take) any action against Iran, the Israelis will feel our wrath in Tel Aviv."  Hossein Ebrahimi, a member of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission said, "Since the beginning of the Islamic Revolution the US, UK and Israel have frequently threatened Iran...This is not a new development.  The Israelis entered the (Lebanon) war with the capabilities they had, but earned nothing but humiliation," Ebrahimi said.  "I do not think that the Israelis along with Americans and Britons will commit such a folly.  If the threat is carried out, they will see the political might of the Islamic establishment, the solidarity of the Iranian nation and the strength of the country."  

Media reports of an imminent Israeli attack on Iran crop up at least twice a year, with different predictions on when Iran will possess a nuclear weapon.  It possesses enough enriched uranium to manufacture two to four nuclear weapons, according to various experts.  With each rumor, there is less time to stop Iran from obtaining an atomic bomb, which the Islamic Republic constantly denies it seeks.  Different interpretations over the weekend pointed to mild American reactions to the reports that most, if not all, Israeli ministers have removed previous objections to a military attack.  During the period of the Obama administration's attempt to "engage Iran," the Iran regime has built nuclear plants deep underground in rocky areas that make it difficult, if not impossible to attack, except through a strike mounted by anti-regime agents in Iran.  


 Commentary:  God said by the mouth of the prophet Ezekiel, "There is Elam (Iran today) and all her multitude about her grave, all of them slain, fallen by the sword, which are gone down uncircumcised into the nether parts of the earth, which caused their terror in the land of the living; yet have they borne their shame with them that go down to the pit" Ezekiel 32:24.  At some point, according to God's Word, Iran will be utterly destroyed in these last days.  Ahmadinejad speaks constant threats against God's people Israel and the judgment of God against Iran for their hatred and terror against Israel will come to pass.  Whether it will happen during the upcoming battle of Gog and Magog (Ezekiel 38), or sometime before, we can't be certain; but the destruction of Iran for her sins against God and His people Israel is coming - and it may be sooner than later.
