A cruel heartless world where we'll bulldoze rubble and body parts into a heap and carry on, bitch slapping any Jews that get in the way. Contrary to said neo- fascist vision, that's not the America I grew up in, fought for, love and desire for my children. Cedarford fleshed out the post apocalyptic world I described.

The non Jewish of ACLU members are OK. Only the Jewish ones will be killed or beaten 2. Iran is an Arab country 3. Iran has embarked on nuclear arms pursuit because she was threatened by Israel (nuclear or otherwise) nuclear weapons 4. Iran is threatened by US under Israeli influence Let the village idiot ramble.

Ah, that would be the new pluggable hybrid tanks. The first 3 klicks are free.

They can make the desert bloom. Imagine what they could do somewhere with real resources. But alas religion mucks that idea up. If I lived in Israel right now, I would be looking to move ASAP.

If we were able to limit the war to no more than a couple of million US dead, we would still be better off than Poland in WWII. They lost around 5,600,000 people, or around 16% of their population. Poland seems to have recovered from this trauma and is a normal modern country. The US would have to loose somewhere north of 45 million to be in this territory. trangbang68,

I guess you mean “first international test” other than the Russians putting their short/medium range missiles pointed west in their western regions.

It was two buildings and 3000 kia's . A nuclear strike that forever kills a city and 1,000,000 people will be the end of everything we have cherished for 200 years. Whatever government pulls itself from the ashes will be dark,bloody and merciless. You won't need to worry about what party will rule. There will be no parties again, no laughter, no joy.Only tears and numb horror. Pray that scenario never occurs.
