Yep.
If Israel attacked Iran, or any muslim country, it could be suicide.
Remember when Israel attacked Iraq's "Osirak" nuclear reactor in 1981? That nearly started a war back then. Thank goodness the Israelis did it though. They probably prevented Saddam Hussein from making and acquiring nuclear weapons.
Another military strike against an Arab nation such as Iran would be very risky. How have things changed since 1981? How haven't they changed?
Sure, Israel can bluff, and sure it has a nuclear arsenal, but even so, can Israel fight all the Arab nations at once?
Sure, Israel has nukes. But it can't really use them. Nukes are mostly deterrants and bargaining chips, not viable munitions.
Once a nuke is used, all hell breaks loose.
It's a scary situation, that's for sure.
Hopefully diplomacy and international cooperation can avert a disaster.
