Eric, the Americans are truly stupid, thank you
for reminding us. We would attack a county with
nuclear weapons because they have nuclear weapons.
You, Eric Yost, are no Jack Kennedy.
Andy or Irene: Besides your misanthropy, your lack
of attention to what is being discussed, and your
penchant for ad hominem--what are you really
showing us here?
I wrote that if Iraq had been armed with nukes, US
war planners would have had to "eliminate" Iraqi
nuclear weapons prior to invasion. You don't need
nukes to do that if they aren't in the launch
phase. It's a horrible thing to contemplate, but
it's just what is. For example, there were/are
plans for disarming Pakistan if Mushareff gets
overthrown. And it's not a political move to point
it out--as if I'm advocating for something by
merely pointing out what is.
Imagine if there were no plans to deal with
nuclear threats. That sound any smarter to you?
