Insanity of an attack by Israel

Israel's military & security apparatus have advised against attacking Iran but I guess these authors know more in the armchair fantasies. Any Israeli attack will achieve the following.

An atomic weapons program for Iran or acquiring weapons grade material. A dirty bomb attack on Tel aviv An attack on Dimona. Hezbolla and Syria will attack. Ethnic cleansing of the Jewish population in Iran. Worldwide attacks on Jews of enormous proportions. Massive attacks on settlements in the West Bank. All treaties with Israel will be severed. Jordan will be toppled and Palestinian refugees will be armed. Egypt will flood Gaza/West Bank with weapons and attack gas platforms and pipelines shutting off supplies. All fuel deliveries to Israel will cease. Israel submarines & ships will be at risk.
