Smirking Chimp Ahmadinejad Could be Wiped Off The Map!!!!

JERUSALEM - With the purchase of two more German-made Dolphin submarines
capable of carrying nuclear warheads, military experts say
Israel is sending a clear message to
Iran that it can strike back if attacked by nuclear weapons.

The purchases come at a time when Iran is refusing to bow to growing Western
demands to halt its nuclear program, and after Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad has called for Israel to be "wiped off the map."

The new submarines, built at a cost of $1.3 billion with Germany footing
one-third of the bill, have diesel-electric propulsion systems that allow them
to remain submerged for longer periods of time than the three nuclear
arms-capable submarines already in Israel's fleet, the Jerusalem Post
reported.

The latest submarines not only would be able to carry out a first strike
should Israel choose to do so, but they also would provide Israel with crucial
second-strike capabilities, said Paul Beaver, a London-based independent
defense analyst.

Israel is already believed to have that ability in the form of the Jericho-1
and Jericho-2 nuclear-capable ballistic missiles, which are buried so far
underground they would survive a nuclear strike, he said.

"The Iranians would be very foolish if they attacked Israel," Beaver said.
