THAT is why it will not be allowed to get off the ground. Somebody will preempt. The loss of life will still be tragic. But the loss of life in a nuclear world war will be a catastrope for the entire planet. Nuclear winter will follow. Humanity will perish.
The Imams of Iran naively believe they will survive and ride out the response. There will not be an Iran after the attempt to attack Israel.
I thought it was Nuclear Global Warming now.
Aw, cmon, there would no nuclear World War. What we're talking about, here, is a limited exchange. Less than we detonated in the atmosphere on our own soil in the 60s. Iran would spend one and Israel would spend about 10-15 and that'd be that. I'd be far more concerned about the world wide economy in the toilet for a decade after all ME oil had to be extracted in radiation suits that I'd ever be about 'humanity perishing'.
But you're correct. They won't be allowed to attain one. And no, the Mullahs would not survive the response. Plate of glass comes to mind. Including the mountains.
