Anytime a nation considers taking any action against a second nation, the first nation should have an understanding of the possible outcomes.

What exactly does Israel think will be the reaction if they bomb the nuclear reactor? Do they really think the Iranians will simply say, ''Oops, I guess we lost. So sorry, I guess we should stop our entire nuclear industry". If so, then the Israelis are unwise.

Knocking out the power reactor in Brushehr will accomplish nothing but firm up the commitment of the hardliners in Iran to continue to hide and protect their nuclear industries. Does anyone really think that the Iranians will stop their nuclear industries if the Brushehr reactor is bombed? No, the Iranians will simply but more of their nuclear industries underground and we will have a much harder time monitoring them.
