That really doesn't make sense because of the geography. Israel is a very narrow country. Directly to the east of the Israeli cities, you'll find large populations of Arabs. Not only would the land be uninhabitable (and land is scarce there), the water supplies would be contaminated, and water is a very scarce resource in the middle east. Then again the Arab populations would be right in the fallout patterns. It wouldn't even make sense. Besides, Jerusalem is the third holiest site in Islam. They aren't going to nuke Jerusalem.

*sigh* You are thinking like an American...

I AM an American :) But I have spent enough time in the middle east where I feel I have a clue about what I am speaking of. The only way they would nuke Jerusalem is if they can figure a way to blame it on us. While they might be successful in convincing the world we might go after Mecca or Medina, I don't think there are too many people who would believe that we would nuke the Israelis.

While I agree that the Islamic terrorists have no compuction about killing other Muslims or Arabs, the bottom line is the land that they crave would become unusable for many generations.

They are fanatics, not idiots.
