And this is what VN was all about. It will only take 5 nuclear weapons to take out Saudi Arabia, plus a few conventional ones. The beauty of it is that the oil facilities won't get hurt much. I wonder if those Saudi princes are feeling a bit more naked now that the US has pulled out.

HH,
oh hell i don't really want to get into this...but...VN was about a lot more than that.

i believe nukes will be introduced to the world again very soon but it won't be saudi because nobody is stupid enough to use a nuke to try to secure access to an oil field. and i seriously doubt 5 will be enough to satisfy the total bloodlust.

BTW, i am becoming convinced that action is southeast asia (SEA) may be contemplated again. the oppression of minorities coupled with opium and other drug production is bound to make headlines again. throw in a little terrorist activity a la the philippines and uncle may pay ya'll another visit.
