Over the past few weeks there has been much speculation and debate regarding Iran and it's quest for a nuclear bomb. It originated in Israel with front page articles in the major newspapers and spread world wide when the IAEA, the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency, released an intelligence report that Iran's nuclear aspirations go far beyond civilian purposes.
If Israel does indeed attack Iran's nuclear facilities, Iran and it's proxies would be expected to retaliate. That means in a worst case scenario, Hamas in the south could launch hundreds of rockets and Hezbollah could terrorize the north with it's deadly arsenal of missiles, and that's before we even mention Iran!
The Iranians have the capability to make the scud missile attack by Iraq look like child's play. It has been reported, that Iran has a vast arsenal of weapons, including weapons of mass destruction, that are within striking distance to every city in Israel. That means that even if you live in Tel Aviv or Jerusalem, cities that have been relatively safe from the rocket attacks, you will now find yourself on the front lines of a dangerous war.
Now, if you were expecting one of the cars with speakers to roll down your block announcing the military strike will start at 9pm tonight, you're in for a surprise. It's not going to happen! You will be just as surprised as the Iranians will be.
And that means that the time to prepare for such an attack, is now. Does you're family know where the closest bomb shelter is? Do you have an emergency supply of food and water saved up? Do you have a radio to stay updated and informed inside the bomb shelter?
Of course we all hope and pray that the above scenario won't happen, but a little preparation now could have an enormous effect later if it does, so what's the excuse not to be prepared?
