Israel: We’ll Destroy Iran If They Decide To Launch War
April 8, 2008
Israel will “destroy” Iran if Tehran decided to launch a war against the Jewish state, Israeli Infrastructure Minister Benjamin Ben-Eliezer said today.
The unusually harsh warning from Ben-Eliezer, a former defense minister, was delivered as the official visited his ministrys war room, which took part today in a massive, nationwide, weeklong drill that is set to include simulated chemical missile attacks on central Israel.
“The Iranians wont rush to attack Israel, because they understand the significance such action would have and are well aware of our strength,” Ben-Eliezer told reporters. “However, Iran continues to aggravate the situation by supplying arms to Syria and Hezbollah, and we must deal with this.”
The minister said this weeks war drill “is not a meaningless spectacle or a fictional scenario. The future reality is likely to be a number of times harsher than that which we recognize now. We are confronted with a situation where the home front becomes the front line.”
“In a future war, it will be much safer to live in the northern towns of Nahariya and Shlomi instead of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, since I expect that in the opening attack hundreds of missiles will strike Israel,” Eliezer said. “There will be no place in the country which is not within range of Syria and Hezbollahs rockets.”
