Iran threatens to attack America! Iran's Revolutionary Guard's senior commander warned that in an event of a war with Israel breaks, U.S. bases will be a target. According to the Associated Press, comments made by General Amir Ali Hajizadeh who leads the Guard's Aerospace division stirred tension with its nuclear program which is seen as a purpose to build a bomb. Iran insinuates that the nuclear program is strictly for peaceful purposes.

Because the United States are close to Israel, Hajizadeh believes that if an attack would happen, the U.S. is sure to defend their allies. As tension rises General Hajizadeh stated, "There will be no neutral country in the region. To us, these bases are equal to U.S. soil."

Consequences of a possible war could leave the Gulf Arab allies worrisome because these serious actions could prevent oil shipment and hold businesses hubs in Dubai and Qatar's capital Doha.  Previously, Iran officials threated to close waterways that lead the route of a fifth's of the world's oil in the case of war.

In regards to the boiling water with Israel, Hajizadeh remarks were posted on the Iran's state Al-Alam TV website that, "For this reason, we will enter a confrontation with both parties and will definitely be at war with American bases should a war break out."

General Mohammad Ali Jafari said that Iran believes that the U.S. will not attack because its military bases in the Middle East are in missile range.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu urges President Barack Obama to declare "red lines" in order to attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. Obama said that U.S. -led sanctions needs more time and that Iran will never be allowed to obtain weapons.
