Er, ya, I grouped Iran in with the other arab nations. I know they're persian, but it's a weird mind-block that's hard for me to shake.
Anyway...
It should be noted that I think what we're all refering to is a strategic bombing strike against Iran's nuclear capabilities, probably in the form of an underground reactor. Were that to happen, it's hard to judge what Iran's response would be. I don't know if they would react militarily as a country, but were that to happen, I think it would be safe to assume that violence in Iraq would escalate exponentially, and you would probably see an escalation in terrorist activity in Europe.
Saudi reaction would be interesting as well.
