We targeted Iran’s nuclear scientists working on the Iranian bomb. We also struck at the heart of Iran’s ballistic missiles program.”Netanyahu added: “In defending ourselves, we also defend others. We defend our Arab neighbors. They, too, have suffered from Iran’s campaign of chaos and carnage.”Iran’s government has not yet commented on the strikes."----------<h2>Israel is bracing for very significant Iranian retaliation, Israeli sources say</h2>"Israel is bracing for very significant Iranian retaliation that will be larger in scale than previous Iranian attacks against Israel, Israeli sources have told CNN.Israel intends to keep up its attacks against Iran until it feels the Iranian nuclear threat has been removed, Israeli sources said, although there is some question within Israel’s security establishment about whether that can truly be accomplished through Israeli actions alone.Israel is going after three primary targets: Iranian nuclear facilities, military assets and key figures in the Iranian military."</blockquote>
