Stopping nuclear proliferation by using nuclear weapons; can’t wait for the US media to spin that one.
brought to you by the “israel struck first so iran couldnt” people
THEIR dastardly nuclear arsenal.
OUR noble nuclear defenses.
etc etc
Drop a nuke on the site and it will be entirely impossible to determine whether or not the the nuke successfully damaged the underground site because you will not be able to monitor radiation.
You can claim you successfully destroyed it.
Alternatively you cant prove they nuked it because it could just be from the site.
Somebody smarter than me… do countries mark their nukes the same way companies mark their explosive compounds? Like, if you can get a sample of of explosive residue analysed, it can be traced back to a manufacturer.
Also, wouldn’t the radioactive contamination be different between a highly enriched weapon and a much less refined fuel rod?
scale matters. if they bomb underground and its mixed in with the iranian uranium itll be basically impossible to isolate any compounds from the american bomb for testing at that point.
I love endless (nuclear) war in the middle east
Aw sweet, manmade horrors beyond my comprehension!
I told the lib I work with that if any country was likely to be nuked, it would be Iran; the ‘international community’
would AT BEST finger wag at America but honestly wouldn’t give a damn beyond that, and why? Because no one likes Iran, that’s why they’ve tacitly agreed that it’s basically not possible to commit war crimes against them (which reminds me of a video I saw of an Israeli complaining about Iran’s retaliation, claiming Israel didn’t start it with Iran, and then quickly following up with that no one even likes Iran). Also secondly the nation most likely to do so would be America.
A few years back the guy (who is unfortunately on reddit FAR too much) was actually asking me if I think Putin might start a nuclear war with America if they happened to lose the war with Ukraine; he actually was asking if I believed Putin would be petty enough to start a nuclear war (yes, he actually specifically mentioned the cause being that Putin was going to be petty). Reddit literally infects people with brain worms.
Oh boy, my nightmares of nuclear war are back in play!
Fucking country is run by death cult mafia bloodfeasts.
The US becoming the only country to use nukes over a century and spanning two millennia.
i swear bush admin said same shit about iraq (something akin to “…even nuclear? -all options on the table” )
That has been the default response basically by war hawks going back to the Korean War. During the Korean War, somewhat famously(?) MacArthur was practically on his knees begging Truman to let him drop something like 50 nukes on the border of Korea/China to, I dunno, “warn” the Chinese(?). It didn’t happen, but not for a lack of desire from those in high command. Bunch of absolutely unhinged psychos
Didn’t MacArthur basically get fired by Truman for being too annoying about using nukes? O
No, MacArthur wanted to create a nuclear border to stop Chinese troops from flowing into the penninsula, however, he was fired when after getting told “no, I’m not going to let you nuke the most populous communist nation” MacArthur called Truman a pansy ass “Jew in the White House” and stated that HE would personally discuss the peace terms of the Korean affair. Thats when Truman and the rest of the Joint Chiefs (which was also filled with bloodthirsty psychopaths) agreed MacArthur was being far too political with his statements.
Calling a born and bred WASP fuck like Harry Truman a pansy ass jew has got to be the funniest way to get fired in the 1950s.
Yes it’s incredibly funny the blooded and bloodthirsty cold war brass looked at MacArthur like he was glowing green.
Shows how fucked up he was lmao
