So if they were to drop a nuke on a major US city people think the first response would be to nuke Iran?
Don’t hold your breath especially with this POTUS.
If Iran manages a first strike against the US therE will be no POTUS to decide on a response. It will not be delivered via ICBM. More likely smuggled in and detonated by a cell that has been in place for over a decade. Target? DC, in their belief that they can cut off the head of the great Satan. That is the one I lose sleep over. I have a son in DC.
And the macho BS on this thread about us slicing through Iran like butter can only occur in two scenarios. 1. We strike first. Or 2. A doomsday scenario M. A. D. In a conventional war, the defeat of Iran is only a matter of will and time. But Iran will not fight us in a conventional war. And only a naïf like Barak Obama or Ron Paul can think that making nice with them will work. But neither will conventional military thinking.
