Well, we can always hope that the current Iran leader, will decide someone else can do the job....

Too bad we don't have Reagan's Star Wars....then both coasts would be safe from the idiot...

At least safe for now.

CB,

I don't think Iran is in the cards. Not even for Israel.

True if your discussing pre-emptive. That card has been played.

Not true if Iran is stupid enough to try something. Even a
conventional ICBM might be met with a nuke response - while it is in flight.

MAD assumed all launches from the USSR were nuclear and we didn't wait for one to land to respond - launching is declaring war.

They should assume the Israeli's will do the same as we and the Soviets did in that regard.
