Fallout and collateral damage from when they blow themselves up by accident?

Wait — I knew "they" controlled the weather, but now you're saying they control earthquakes too? Woah.

A quick recap:

• Iran sends it best general into a a foreign country where American armed forces are in control.
• The U.S. assassinates their general while he is in Iraq
• Iran holds a funeral for their general, and a subsequent stampede kills 60 Iranian citizens.
• Iran shoots missiles at a US airbase, misses all targets, there are no U.S. casualties, and minimal damage because some missiles had no warheads.
• Iran shoots down a Ukrainian passenger jet, killing 170 people on board.

Please tell me once again why we're supposed to be afraid of their alleged nuclear capability?


Plus their country is ruled by an apocalyptic cult.

What's the difference between the fallout and damage caused if they accidentally blow themselves up or if we launch at them?

Either way, 'we' are the survivors and 'we' get to write the history.

What sense would it make for the US to immediately press the big red button should it turn out that Iran was working on or had completed developing nuclear weapons? In such an event, the US is more than capable of pulverizing Irans military capability using conventional warfare.

Did you miss me saying Iran in my post? I'm saying Iran is at fault, not you.

And to be clear I hate it when "inconvenient" facts are suppressed to protect " diversity" and such.

No. It is an illustration of the tactical superiority of American ordnance. Drop a few of those on top of Iran's "Top Secret" underground nuclear processing facility and watch it disappear!
