Tactical nuclear weapons on the table for Iran’s Fordow site, US media reports - Türkiye Today
I love endless (nuclear) war in the middle east
Aw sweet, manmade horrors beyond my comprehension!
Oh boy, my nightmares of nuclear war are back in play!
Fucking country is run by death cult mafia bloodfeasts.
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.
The US becoming the only country to use nukes over a century and spanning two millennia.
Maybe I'm dumb but this strikes me as a news site distracting everyone from the fact that they still just want to do a unilateral strike on a country that amerikkka is not formally at war with. I'm pretty sure a nuclear weapon isn't even what you'd want to use and they're literally just saying they aren't telling what they might use. It's like a bunker buster situation.
Burgerland bombing countries they're not at war with isn't even newsworthy at this point.
There are nuclear bunker busters https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_bunker_buster
The facilities can withstand even nuclear bunker busters. On a recent chapo or citations needed episode they were talking about the US needing to use repeated nuclear weapon blasts to penetrate deep enough.
So glad the UN isn't an entirely feckless organization
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?
nothing ever happens
Define "nothing" and "ever"
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
I don't have a good citation because I heard it in Hardcore History with Dan Carlin, but it feels like it rhymes with how America threatened (soviets in?) Afghanistan soon after WW2 before anyone else had nukes. Which is to say since the inception of the nuke
has been begging and pleading.How far we have fallen debased ourselves.
that should.. uh... prove a point
Stopping nuclear proliferation by using nuclear weapons; can't wait for the US media to spin that one.
THEIR dastardly nuclear arsenal.
OUR noble nuclear defenses.
