Really, we shouldn’t build anymore till we nuke a place like Mecca. Unless people believe we will use them, they don’t have much value (except of course, against asteroids)
If we used just one,,,once, people would really come around and start treating us better. 911 was such a golden opportunity.
“(except of course, against asteroids)”
Maybe we could nuke Mecca and make it look like an asteroid did it?
Why stop with Mecca? We should incinerate Saudi Arabia, as they were the ones factually behind the attacks of 9/11/01 ... OBL, AQ and the Taliban were just the facilitators. The Saudi crown financed the operation, and most of the participants were Saudi nationals. End Saudi Arabia’s existence, and you end the breeding place of Wahhabism and its madrassahs. You also send a message to all the Musloids around the world that we do not give a flying squirrel’s butt about annihilating their entire population and culture from the face of the Earth. Islam is no more a “religion” than was Nazism.
“911 was such a golden opportunity.”
I can think of a half-a-dozen “opportunities” without giving it a lot of thought when nukes should have been used starting in the 40s.
If I gave it a lot of thought then there would probably be a dozen or more.
Let's not forget that we have already used "The Bomb" - twice. And that it earned us a lot of respect for a while.

Used against an asteroid, a nuke just makes more asteroids ...
