Star Wars anyone?

I see a US Congressional resolution coming soon: If Iran nukes another country, the entire country of Iran will be incinerated. And if Iran attempts to nuke another country and we shoot it down, Iran will be incinerated with every megaton in our arsenal that Jimmy Carter wanted to eliminate.

Wrong. I sometimes get very tired of the "Kill them all let God sort it out" attitude which appears here whenever serious questions of foreign policy come up.

The overwhelming majority (80%) of Iranians are pro-American and anti-Mullah.

There will be a blocade of Iran, with (until the NYT discloses it) a covert war by the intelligence and special forces services of several countries (US, UK, Austrailia to be sure, but also Saudia Arabia, Kuwait and the Gulf States - the Israelis need not apply - their presence would be harmful) to overthrow the Mullahs and install a "democratic" (non-Mullah gov't).

We DO have a certain experience doing this in Latin America...

"Iran will be incinerated with every megaton in our arsenal that Jimmy Carter wanted to eliminate."


Not to go off-topic, but naming a nuclear-missile-carrying submarine the USS Jimmy Carter is the height of irony, don't you think? Hell, use it for your above military action to really "come full circle"!!
