Now what Iran?

[Forever_frost]

Why not? I am sure we can drill through glass.

Not irradiated glass

Not irradiated glass

we have robots.

[Forever_frost]

we have robots.

Problem is, we don't have a politician one willing to go nuclear, even if we're hit first

That is a scary (though probably correct) thought.

[stevo]

No, we wouldn't. We wouldn't strike back with nukes. Washington would issue some stern words and posture but no one in Washington and especially that coward in office, is willing to hit the big red button that unleashes nuclear hell in Iran.

You honestly believe we would not retaliate if Iran used a nuclear device on American soil?

Not with nukes.

Iran would no doubt deny any involvement and our liberal element would demand diplomacy, and however sickening a thought it is, maybe even an apology on our part. Deference to the U.N. and all that.

We could be dead???? Duh!


lol

[Slammy]

Didnt know iran had the capability to even hit the US with anything. Having a nuke is one thing, being able to deliver it to target is another.

[ram57ta]

If Iran attacked anything in Europe or Israel I'm pretty sure the US would somehow get blamed for forcing their hand...which could cause a domino effect against us...pretty much like Iraq lobbing those SCUD missiles back in the first gulf war when we had to BEG Israel to ignore.

I don't see why it wouldn't be a big strategic move to take out a town like Dallas, St Louis, New Orleans, San Francisco etc. These aren't really high on the list of places you would expect to see an attack, which makes them easier targets but will have the same shock and affect if of a DC or NYC attack. If they were able to take out any of those cities, it would strike fear into normal US citizens, and that is a fact. NYC or Dallas, it wouldn't matter, people would feel the same fear. That is what these people are all about. Instilling fear in their enemies.

Think of the notoriety a group would get if they claimed they took out a few hundred thousand or million people in ANY US city.

If you think about it there are actually a lot of places you have here that should be valued as high priority targets...

EDS
Texas Instruments
Bell Helicopter
Raytheon
Lockheed Martin
Lockheed Martin Missile and Fire Control
Northrop-Grumman Electro-Optical Systems
General Dynamics (currently the only company producing bombs for the AF).

We wouldn't use a nuke. Iran would deny they did it and the UN wouldn't let us

Exactly. Not every target has to be a city with a large government presence.

Like you know what a metaphor is, dumbass.

Talisman's last bastion of something he thought he had over me LOL

Is it really even necessary? Seems like we could wipe just about anyone off the face of the earth (especially Iran) without even having to think about getting into nuclear. After all, we may want to use that area for something someday. No sense in ruining it if you don't absolutely have to.

No, there's bunkers and until you go boots to ground, we don't own the ground
