Ayalon opens mouth, utters madness

Exactly, it is the Americans who dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. The Japanese were so nasty that the Pentagon evaluated (correctly) that dropping an atomic bomb would end the war in a matter of days, thus saving the USA from a costly conquest of Japan.
In this case, Israel might have to drop an atomic bomb on Iran, in order to avoid being hit by Iran. Or it might be Iran that will hit Saudi Arabia first, or any of its other enemies in the region.

The problem with tsam is that he always interprets what he reads in a way that is obviously not meant or forgets about all the other possibilities.

Same problem with Avraham.

During the 'sixties I read two books by Lord Russell of Liverpool: "The Scourge of the Swastika" about Nazi war crimes, and "The Knights of Bushido" about Japanese war crimes. The Japanese book was thicker! What Japan got from America, it earned honestly and dilligently. The alternative was more Allied lives.

(BTW, nobody ever explained to me why Kamikazi pilots wore helmets ... :-) )

Israel operates or is currently acquiring 3 nuclear submarines. It has been published that one regularly patrols the Hormoz area near Iran. This is a nuclear deterant: theoretically, Iran might level Israel with nuclear bombs, but the second-strike capability would still be there.

From there to Hiroshima the distance is short. The only madness is in tsam's mind.

Avraham, the German u-boots are diesel powered, not nuclear. And everyone knows one of them is near Hormuz and that the Amos satellite is constantly above Iran.

I didn't say nuclear-powered; they are nuclear-capable.

I think what Ayalon said was reasonable.
