Iran: We will bomb Israel if it makes "silly mistake" of attacking us

The deputy commander of Iran's air force said Wednesday that the Islamic republic has drafted plans to bomb Israel if it attacks Iran, Haaretz reported, citing the semi-official Fars news agency.

"We have drawn up a plan to strike back at Israel with our bombers if this regime makes a silly mistake," deputy air force chief, General Mohammad Alavi was quoted as telling Fars in an interview.

Foreign Ministry official Yigal Palmor stressed that Iran's remarks just reinforce the need for the international community should adopt a firmer stance against Iran.

"There's no doubt that without international effort Iran will go on with all kind of threats, towards Israel and other countries as well," said Palmor. "Anybody who wishes for stability ... in the Middle East cannot but be alarmed by this speech."
