We will just have to agree to disagree and hope we never find out what happens. I don't see us using nuclear weapons on Mecca and Medina in the context I described. You think I'm wrong.

You think we would nuke Mecca and Medina in that conext. I think you are wrong.

Since we are both Freepers, lets just shake on it and continue agreeing on other stuff (I imagine - but I may be wrong - that we probably agree on a whole lot of stuff).

Peace, brother! And lets hope this situation never happens!

Ok ...truce. .....we agree to disagree.

But we both heartily agree about not wanting to ever find out who's right (in this instance).

You are wrong on this one. The United States is the ONLY country that has never used nuclear weapons in anger. This fact alone kept the Soviets off our back. They KNEW we would use them and it was communicated to them in no uncertain terms that if they invaded Western Europe they were going to meet Mr Atom.

The Cold War was a war against rational enemies. Mr Sovietski may have been stupid with his ideologies, but he was rational.

Arab muslims are not. They are going to hit and hit until we decide that all out war must be waged. And the world is going to tremble when we do decide that.

A nuke means all out war to exterminate that enemy. If it is a country, so be it. If it is people, we've done that too.

Ask an American Indian on the reservation about the wrath of the USA.
