What do Netanyahu and Wile E. Coyote have in common? Bibi Pulls Out A Cartoon Bomb To Explain to UN The Iranian Nuclear Threat

1) Iraq wasn’t all but screaming to the world the equivalent of “we’re building this and you can’t stop us! Nyah Nyah Nyah!”
2) Plenty of proof and indicators pointing to the fact that the Ayatollahs have been developing nuclear tech for more than just seeking nuclear energy, ie weapons programs, if only on account of the fact that there are quite a few transactions pertaining to it as well as interviews from before the Iranian nuclear program became active. In the latter, the leadership admitted saying that it would pursue it if they could, citing “will of Allah for destroying Teh Ebil Jews. Hell, there’s even the very words (in Farsi) from former Iranian President Ali Rafsanjenai in 2000 or 2001, who was eventually one of those responsible for overseeing part of the nuclear project (can someone say happy coincidence) where he not only justified nuking Israel but gave religious/moral justifications for the would-be deaths of any Muslims dying due to the use of a nuke on Tel Aviv and the effects of the fall out on neighboring countries (in Arabic ofc).
3) This is a country that had no problem with the use of WMDs in the past (see the Iran-Iraq War where both sides used Biowarfare against each other with figures in the tens of thousands of fatalities as a result).

4) Only 3 days ago, the current Iranian president publicly called for “eradicating” a country of 6.5 million people - a call which he has repeated before, along with openly denying the Holocaust, for which he seems to be wishing.


Bibi doesn’t get a shred of credibility or respect from my general direction (for numerous reasons) but comparing this to Iraq is ridiculous, as was the premise for attacking Iraq in the first place. Iraq was never a threat, and no one in the region viewed it as such in more than a decade, just as no one took Saddam seriously in that part of the world (To this date, i’ve not met one Israeli who thought the wa made sense - to all of them, before and after, Saddam was a joke and a vocal nuisance sine ‘91, nothing more).
In contrast, Iran is a totally different story - pretty much everyone takes the Ayatollah regime seriously and Israel isn’t the only ones concerned (case in point, the Gulf State arms race that’s now underway because they’re mortally terrified of a nuclear Iran even more than Israel)…
