"This site will no doubt cheer a global thermonuclear war. "

Huh? Why would you say that? I don't think global thermonuclear war has many fans, even, or especially on FR.

Perhaps you should peruse the threads present on FR when the Chinese abducted the spy plane. Countless, countless "weeell, we'uns should nuke Bejing", or "we'uns should blast that plane out of existance where it sits, consequences be damned" being bandied about without thought of the consequences. Same thing here.

Even allowing that Iraq or Iran could develop a missile, which I really, really doubt despite the propaganda contrary, they have no means to deliver it to the continental United States. They can barely deliver convention explosives the range of Israel. ICBM's are hard to make, and harder to hide, and they are at least 50 years out from even knowing how to do so.

But I'm sure my words will be ridiculed and go unheeded. I mean after all, Russia only declared solidarity with Iraq knowing that we will probably be invading Iraq soon (if not already based on today's disinformation posts). And Russia in fact does have the ability to kill all your little children and grandchildren.
