Art- If they use an atomic bomb ANYWHERE in the world, I would imagine that this act would be the beginning of their total destruction, not anyone else's. Sure, there would be a lot of lives lost, but in the end I would say that every arab and muslim country would end up being occuppied by the united forces of everyone else. I don't think that there would be any distinction made between good and bad, no armchair committee talk, just unbridled action. But that's not to say that the "free world" shouldn't be on guard for it, they should. But those types of speculations I don't think serve any purpose, it starts to get to the point where it becomes a lot of what ifs. You know oh my god..what if they decide to do this or oh my god..do that. Eventually it will end up in hysteria, with them somehow melting the icecaps and flooding the entire world.
