All that's well and good... and even reasonable... If we were at
war with a particular country.
Unfortunately, the terrorists reside in many different countries,
including ours. Using a nuclear weapon to kill hundreds of
thousands of innocent people is not going to thwart the
terrorist activity here. It will however, alienate those that do not
currently hate the United States.
If the use of a nuclear weapon is only to destroy the maze of caves
and tunnels, it may be used, and be accepted. But not for any
other purpose.
Sorry...i don't agree....we should have nuked the country that we know to be most involved with terrorism on 9/12. Then send the message to the other countries on our list that unless they reign in the terrorist they are next....let them figure out who is #2 on our list and we will also becoming for the terrorist such as osama, borders be damned.
The VAST MAJORITY of arab/muslim's hate us....we can do very little if anything to make them hate us more. We can make them FEAR us though.
