DRS...the original hypothetical to Clinton was, ..."what would happen to Iran if they started a nuclear attack against Israel"
she responded they would be "obliterated".
I don't think the Israels would wait for diplomatic intervention as they are being destroyed...they would react, hence Iran would risk being "obliterated"
these are all doomsday scenarios that no one wants, sans maybe McCain, Bush and Cheney.
and this is precisely why we start diplomatic interventions now.
