Israeli army today test fired a nuclear warhead capable missile that can reach "destinations" in Iran. The test has created speculations and a public debate over whether the country's leaders are agitating for a military attack on Tehran's atomic facilities.

The Guardian reports:

While Israeli leaders have long warned that a military strike was an option, the most intensive round of public discourse on the subject was ignited over the weekend by a report in the Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronot that said the prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, and the defence minister, Ehud Barak, favoured an attack.
