How might Iran respond to a U.S. or Israeli military strike? Some have suggested they may have already embedded terrorist cells within the United States and these groups are ready to strike when given the command. And as if that was not enough, some analysts maintain that Iran could strike U.S. forces in Iraq with artillery shells containing Chemical, Biological Weapons (CBWs). Iran’s Shahab-3 missiles, with a range of up to 1,200 miles, could hit U.S. bases as far away as Oman as well as Israeli targets in Haifa and Tel Aviv.
Newsmax reports:
An attack on Iran could trigger horrific retaliation against the U.S. and her allies in the Middle East with chemical and biological weapons including nerve gas, anthrax, and a germ similar to the devastating Ebola virus.
While the U.S. has not overtly threatened to bomb Iran’s burgeoning nuclear facilities, it has warned of using the “military option.” And Iran has countered if attacked it would retaliate.
Western intelligence experts doubt Iran has acquired a nuclear device and suggest she is several years from doing so.
But many agree that Iran has a program for chemical and biological weapons (CBWs) — one more shrouded in secrecy than her nuclear program. Not only do analysts say the Islamic regime has stockpiles of CBWs, they also suggest that Iran also has the means to deliver the weapons to targets in Israel, Iraq and the United States.
“The threat of chemical and biological retaliatory attack by Iran is very real,” Dr. Dany Shoham, a chemical and biological weapons expert at the Begin Sadat Center for Strategic Studies in Israel, tells Newsmax. “Iran is prone to dare what Iraq did not, and has the needed operational capabilities.”
