2. Oh, and did we mention the nukes?
Iraq was supposedly the 5th largest army in the world BEFORE Desert Storm.

After 12 years of sanctions and bombings, it was nothing.


Iran has a fully-functional military AND nukes. Only a complete moron would send us in there now...

Why don't I feel safer having made that statement?

4. They're looking for excuses...
to use theater nukes.

"We gotta stop the Iranians from doing whatever, and they've got serious weapons, so we got to use nukes!... They're just little ones, anyway."

6. How many nuke you want to launch again Iran
tell me how many.

Went you push that red button, everyone is going to see a nuke incoming. Everyone will at red alert. There will be panic and confusion. If you launch a lot. I dont think they will wait to find out where it is heading. As long as it is in their direction they will counter launch.
