Russian Experts: US operation in Iran supposes usage of nuclear weapons
“A US military operation in Iran supposes usage of tactical nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, consequences of a US nuclear strike on Iran will affect neighboring territories as well,” First Vice President of the Academy for Geopolitical Issues, Capt. Konstantin Sivkov said at a news conference “When and how will be Iran attacked?” in Moscow, a REGNUM correspondent reports.

“Nuclear weapons will be mostly used against headquarters and nuclear development facilities in Iran, there are 128 of them; besides, administrative facilities will be also attacked,” Vice President of the Academy for Geopolitical Issues Vladimir Anokhin believes.

“Bush and the Republican Party need a fast, short and winnable operation in Iran in order to secure their positions and influence in the USA,” President of Academy for Geopolitical Issues, Gen.-Col. Leonid Ivashov added.
The Russians, like the Europeans, believe that you should dither around to the last minute, then use nukes.
