Actually, does any country in the Muslim world still have as a stated goal the destruction of Israel? |

Iran doesn't need nukes. We'd back up anyone destroying that capability.

So North Korea's going too for the Axis of Evil trifecta? Kim Jong Il has turned into Mr. Burns when he made Don Mattingly cut his sideburns on the softball episode of the Simpsons. In NK you're now frowned upon for them, but they've got quite the nuke arsenal building up. |

Iran has a powerful military. But Israel has an even more powerful military. Iran will put up a good fight, but if Israel really wants to, they will be able to bomb the known nuclear sites.
This is never gonna happen btw. |

Iran will roll over if Israel attacks them with 150,000 US troops next door. In Libya's come clean action we found out that they had weapons grade uranium imported from nK, which means nK had enough of the material to even export it. That should make us rethink the numbers of nuclear weapons nK could possess at the moment.
