| #7 And I should add that, moral issues aside, the practical side effects of anything other than very tactical nukes will be substantial: economically, politically, environmentally. For us, for Iraq and Afghanistan, for a good part of the world. I don't look forward to the impact on the world economy, for instance, of radioactive sites all over one of the major oil producers. It may come to that, but I doubt it -- and I hope not. |

| #6 I take your meaning, HU2592, but I've got to say that I don't take the idea of using nuclear weapons as ... casually ... as you and others seem to do. It's not that I'm antiwar. My husband was a career officer in the Air Force during the cold war, I had close relatives in the missile silos and others who were pilots. But the use of our nuclear arsenal should be a last resort, as the firebombings of Dresden were -- something which is a bad thing. It may come to the point where it's the least evil of many bad choices, but it will never be better than that. That's my opinion, any way, and the opinion of those close to me who were prepared to execute the order to deploy them. |

| #5 Do you think we would hear a peep out of Chavez if we nuked Iran? What about Kimmie, ours are tested and proven to work, he's never had a test of his. Personally, I think it is a marvelous idea, it would set the record straight with a number of uppity people the world over. |

| #3 Mister D. This clown isn't so much a moonbat, as he is an ordinary, garden-variety bullshit artist. That's the art and essence of being a front-rank lib-lab. |

| #2 Sheesh. This clown isn't so much a moonbat, as he is an ordinary, garden-variety bullshit artist. To anyone with a knowledge of nuclear weaponry (i.e., who can use Google to search on the phrase "nuclear weapons"), this article is a comedy of ignorance and superstition. Feh. |

| #1 Heavy duty moonbattery that completely misses the point. The Iranian nuclear program could be stopped by a half dozen cruise missiles a week (indefinitely) taking out appropriate electrical infrastructure. |
