Strike on Iran could turn Mideast into fireball, official says - CNN.com

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) -- The U.N. nuclear watchdog chief warned in comments aired Saturday that any military strike on Iran could turn the Mideast to a "ball of fire" and lead Iran to a more-aggressive stance on its controversial nuclear program.

Mohamed ElBaradei, U.N. nuclear watchdog chief, warned of dangers of a strike on Iran.

The comments by Mohamed ElBaradei, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, came in an interview with an Arab television station aired Saturday, a day after U.S. officials said they believed recent large Israeli military exercises may have been meant to show Israel's ability to hit Iran's nuclear sites.

"In my opinion, a military strike will be the worst ... it will turn the Middle East to a ball of fire," ElBaradei said on Al-Arabiya television. It also could prompt Iran to press even harder to seek a nuclear program, and force him to resign, he said.

Iran on Saturday also criticized the Israeli exercises. The official IRNA news agency quoted a government spokesman as saying that the exercises demonstrate Israel "jeopardizes global peace and security."

Israel sent warplanes and other aircraft on a major exercise in the Eastern Mediterranean earlier this month, U.S. military officials said Friday.

Good for Israel. If the U.S. is too weak to do what needs to be done, then we should be very grateful there is a country there who isn't.

And by all means ignore Arab saber rattling; they're mostly the most craven of cowards, still stinging from getting shut down numerous times by a much smaller country, no matter how many times they've ganged up on it. Finding mentally ill citizens and sending them off on suicide bombings is about the extent of their 'military' strategies. Unlike real countries, they're just thugs and bandits.

Roflmao

You can laugh but Elberadi was right before. I remember him sitting in front of the camaras before we went in to Iraq. He was sitting behind a pile of documents. He was explaining the Iraq had handed over all of the documents that were being requested. But nobody would listen to him. He said that all the documents were right there. And they showed that the weapons had been destroyed. So while you laugh he is the only one who was proven right. If we would have listened to him we might have avoided the mess we got in to.

And when you say if the U.S. is too weak Israel can do it. I have a kid in the military. If its all the same to you I would like trying talking before we throw our kids in front of a firefight.

The docs that Iraq sent were pure fabrication. That's why they were never seriously considered as proof. We had spent 12 years getting the run-around from the Baathists and this was nothing more than more of the same. It was a stalling tactic, trying to garner public sympathy from well-meaning "folks" like yourself. Had we waited, how many more Iraqi women would have been
gang-raped becuase thier husbands stood up against the Baathists? How many more mass graves would have been found? How many more Iraqis would have been "processed" through the Iraqi death factories like Abu Ghraib?

This coming from the crowd that insisted Iraq had WMDs, and THOSE turned out to be "pure fabrications"???

I'm sorry, but the end result speaks louder than your opinion...


And instead, the U.S. invasion has INCREASED the Iraqi death rate.
Sounds like quite the improvement!

No wonder Iraq is not "greeting us as liberators" and INSTEAD telling us that we need to get out of their country and that they will NOT help pay for the war...

First, You can't win the argument by saying that they were bad people. Secondly, The documents were right. But its funny that you find them lacking. When the info we did rely on came from Chalabi and what was that informants name? "Curveball" I mean come on man. Their info was dead wrong. Lets not start rewriting history here. There is too much documentation.

So you know what is going on hey? LoL... We are part of the attack, we open the front door and hit the radar guns and sams. I could be wrong but we have to wait and see.

I get so tired of people running down America, doesn't other shere feel the same.

I would like to warn the UN that if no one stops Iran from making nuclear bombs that the entire middle east will become a fireball.

Talk to them?
Duh! we haven't been trying that have we? Even the UN.

Time for talk is about over. Iran wants to be attacked. Something about the 12th mullah or some crazy idea chaos before peace. The last leader of Iran ruled that this was outlawed and not to be mentioned.

Hey I say help them get their wish.... Sorry Mikeyy. But if it doesn't happen they will be bolder and more GI's will die anyway. Iran is getting bolder in all thearters we are involved in.

And we aren't weak in this area, so stupid to even say that. Keep an eye on CNN it will be better than the Gulf War...
