plus let us not make the tragic mistake of ignoring the list of American cities that the Iranian dictators will destroy with their nuclear bombs on their ICBM’s

... Iran's longest-ranged ICBMs have a max range of 5-6 km. Barely able to hit these US, if at all. And the few that miiight reach us, would easily be shot down. Iran's only danger to the mainland is terrorists they snuck in over the border. That's it.

thanks for that. iran has been building icbm’s with longer and greater range every year. They an already nuke several European countries directly from bases in Iran. They don’t need longer range ICBM’s to hit their neighbors in the mid-east, so this rapid development of longer and longer range missiles is to hit longer-range targets. Their first priority is to hit USA, they’ve repeated stated this and nobody doubts it for a second.
They also have several successful space satellites already.
And the Russians have given them submarines and more are believed in the offing. (It would be quite unsurprising if Russia hasn’t already given Iran modern technology capable of hitting USA since Biden has authorized strikes into Russia’s heartland from the Ukraine...)

when evil dictators like in Iran threaten you, history teaches the wisdom of listening. Yes, USA still has vast military resources and yes, it could quite likely intercept any Iranian nukes targeted on American cities. Quite likely but NOT guaranteed!! Even some Fakestinian missiles manage to get through Israeli defenses and the IDF has the most advanced anti-missile technology in the world.

All I am suggesting is to be aware of the danger. There’s probably nothing you or I can do about it, anyway, so let’s move forward in life without debilitating fear. That Iran is a clear and present danger is, nonetheless, a fact of life.
