Obama WANTS a nuclear Iran, that nukes a few American cities into cinders, so he can surrender and become America’s Vizier. This has been his plan from the beginning, one broadly endorsed by the elites who find submission in a Vichy America the path to absolute domestic power the way Vichy France’s elites did.

This is Obama, this is Ayers, this is Wright, this is Farrakhan, this is Biden, this is Hillary, this is the entire Democratic Party and Liberal Elite. As in Polanski, in defense and security. This is who they are.

What is likely, is that a few dead American cities will prompt survival mode. As a practical matter the Constitution would not be in effect in a proposed surrender, the military is big and geographically dispersed, it would take control to prevent more cities from dying by starting the process of retaliation.

The danger of NYC being nuked is that it does not just magically stop there. Like a tribal coup counting. It demands more and more, nuclear attacks, for more and more concessions. Until those doing it are totally, completely, and absolutely wiped out. Every last man, woman, child. Anyone and everyone who even speaks the language.

Thus the death of NYC does not mean just the death of 3-6 million Americans. It inevitably means as a matter of survival for Denver, Dallas, Atlanta, Salt Lake City, Ann Arbor, San Francisco, Portland, Topeka, St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Chicago, the death of all Pakistanis, all Iranians, all Egyptians, all Saudis, all Omanis, all Yemenis, all Syrians, all Jordanians, all Tunisians, all Turks, and so on. A difficult path, to be sure, but well within the capacity of America in a few years to construct enough nukes from SCRATCH after unilateral disarmament to simply kill all those nations and peoples.

This is the logic of the nuclear weapons systems. ONCE they are used on a great power, they will provoke a massive counter-response as a means of national survival. Speeches, mediation, etc. won’t do it. It’s down to the nasty business of killing, and killing before you are killed. Nuclear proliferation means deterrence through horror. Not the refined, out of sight kind of the Cold War, but the active horror of say the Thirty Years War.
