The main difference is a lot less crap from the rest of the world... If we used a Nuke (even in self defense) the entire Arab world and most of the rest of the world would go ballistic. A bunch of MOABS would kill every enemy troop around and not leave a radiation cloud that could waft over Baghdad or Karbala or anywhere.

5-10 MOABs would be a spark to a tactical nuke.
