If you consider hostile actions backed directly or indirectly by Iranian funding?
July 2006 is when Hezbollah started firing rockets, IIRC. Maybe it was 2007?
That's not the point I was trying to make though. I consider the probability of military nuclear action of any type somewhere in the world to be insanely low. I consider the probability of an attack by an Arab (or other anti-Israeli faction) against Israel to be much higher given the historical factors of the area.
That said, any country which backed such an action would have to realize it would become a glass parking lot less than 24 hours later, so even with the increased chances, I think it is highly unlikely that it will escalate to that point.
Never know when you are dealing with religious (or non religious) crazies though.
