Things in the Middle East are starting to come to a boil. There has been word of a possible Israeli attack on Iran in the near future. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad doesn’t seem to fear Israel very much though.

Ahmadinejad appeared on al-Jazeera, where he discussed a possible attack on Iran by Israel. He said “Israel doesn’t have the courage to do it, and I do not think its threat is serious.”

Israel is thought to be planning an attack on the Iranian nuclear facilities, as precautionary measures to prevent a future nuclear attack on the Jewish state. Whether the attack will be put into action, no one is really sure.

Ahmadinejad, also seemingly mocked the United States Military. When talking about whether he believed that the U.S. would take part in an Iranian attack, he said “There are no logical reasons for the United States to carry out such an act. Do you believe an army that has been defeated by a small army in Iraq can enter into a war with a large and well trained army like the Iranian army?”

So far, it’s all talk and no action, but how long will it continue to be this way?
