A sobering question regarding US bombing Iran nuke program

[Moonglow]

No autopen with that one, that would have been your brain dead puppet...Of course Trump ordered the attack, and rightly so. And your propaganda that this was just some peaceful nuclear facility is a joke...NO ONE buys that shit...

Iran was within two weeks of developing a nuclear bomb, and Trump along with Netanyahu did the world a huge favor...You should be thankful.

What prototype?

Aw, the antagonists of the ME were stung by the US...must be deeply unsettling for such a traitor like yourself.

You're the draft dodger, not I.

 

[Moonglow]

you have devolved into faux metaphysics

It's not like they were invited to tea.

If Iran was stupid enough to use a nuke, they'd cease to exist following the counter attack.

The problem is they probably would most likely never do that. What they will do is enable some clandestine terrorist group to smuggle a dirty bomb into some heavily populated or militarily sensitive area. They are notorious for enabling others to do their dirty work.

If a Russian nuke explodes on US soil or near a US base that would trigger a nuclear response. Just so you know.

Of course no. Ok, let's play the game. Russian and China sold Iran some nuclear weapons. Iran attacked American military bases on Middle East. Fifty thousand US soldiers are dead, almost no American civilians are harmed. Iran suggests pretty generous peace deal - "Americans flew from Middle East and never returns armed. If America retaliate and hit Iranian bases on Iranian soil - Iran will hit American military targets on American soil. If America hit Iranian cities - Iran will hit American cities (and it will cause hundreds of thousands killed civilians). If America attack Russian and Chines cities - America cease it's existens and 90% of Americans die in less than a year".

What can America do in such circumstances?

 

[Zavulon]

What happens if Iran retaliates against a U.S. base or ship?

Trump will order another bigger attack

What happens if Iran then kills more US servicemen?
Trump will demand an invasion

Where does it end?

Two possibilities: 1) building the system of equal safety and equal rights, with no US (or anyone elses) aggressions without permission of SC UN;
2) All out nuclear war and defeat of the USA (quite likely with death of 90% of American population).

Not necessarily dirty bomb. Proper clean nukes is the main possibility. May be, they'll have a Houthies or somebody to push the button.

If I am in Iran, I don't like being told what I can and cannot have. Especially when others have it.

But that is the nature of living in a global community.

People are not going to respect what I don't like when my leaders are whack-jobs

Iran is still a signatory to the Non-Proliferation Treaty. They willingly chose to not pursue getting nukes.

As if they don't have it.

I support using US military bombing Iran nuke site

But what if the bunker buster bomb fails to dtop Iran from building atomic warheads and achieving nuclear capability?

Even if we destroy their nuclear reactor are they far enough along already to assemble one or more nuclear warheads?

You know there are reasons we don't usually do crap like this.

Sure, we can claim Iran is a threat. But remember:

- Xi can claim Taiwan is a threat.

- Kim Jon Ung can claim South Korea is a threat.

- India can claim Pakistan is a threat.

- Turkey can claim Greece is a threat.

- and on and on and on...

Russia has already declared Ukraine a threat.

Will tRump declare Greenland or Canada a threat next?

The only warning we may get before WWIII stars is tRump making Barron a podiatry appointment.

very old plot-----take it to MACEDONIA

They willingly chose to not pursue getting nukes if (and this is the point) they have right to develop their civilian nuclear program. That's all this NPT is about.
And, by his senseless attack against civilian nuclear infrastructure, Trump effectively destroyed NPT. Not only for Iran, but to all other countries, too. In fact, NPT doesn't exist anymore. Everyone can sell and buy nukes.

Old but gold. Ok, there are the new ones:

The IAEA said Iran was not in compliance with the NPT, they switched off the monitoring devices and ended inspections and they said they were going to complete the project. Tell me again who destroyed NPT.

There is the difference between "decreased level of cooperation" and "proven guilty". And yes, it was destroyed by Israel, USA and, partly, by IAEA, too.

Where does it end?

If it comes to it, regime change. And hopefully Iran can rejoin the 21st century and the civilized world.

May be. But it is not necessarily that regime will be changed in Iran. May be, it will be changed in the USA. Who knows?

Well, you can't get one without the other.

Kinda like pleading he 5th.

When in doubt....take it out.

If someone tells you who they are and what they intend to do, believe them.

What can America do in such circumstances?

First strike annihilation of the entire country of Iran. If Russia wants to play....so be it.
