Israel use of nuclear weapons against Iran imminent?

Via both Lowell over at Raising Kaine, and News Hounds I see that ISRAEL has drawn up secret plans to destroy Iran’s uranium enrichment facilities with tactical nuclear weapons. The report shows that Israel may have three prime targets just south of Tehran:

- Natanz, where thousands of centrifuges are being installed for uranium enrichment

- A uranium conversion facility near Isfahan where, according to a statement by an Iranian vice-president last week, 250 tons of gas for the enrichment process have been stored in tunnels

- A heavy water reactor at Arak, which may in future produce enough plutonium for a bomb

I agree with both Melanie at News Hounds and Lowell at Raising Kaine when I say this is scary, chilling news.
