"For example, everyone in the world [except the US] expects that if Iran were to possess a nuke and let it go onto Israel, the US would let loose a few hundred nukes from it's stockpile and level all of Iran. In the US, conservatives don't think that's a real enough deterrent." Let's not leave Israel's nukes out! Those 400 have a lot less distance to travel (assuming we haven't already pre-positioned ours in Iraq), so, we'd just be re-glassing all the corpses Israel had already glassed over. I'm sure we've got the technology to drill through the radioactive glass and keep the oil flowing, so, no sweat! Go shopping! You notice, there's no threat to AMERICA in ANY of these scenarios?
