I didn’t say YOU were. I’m saying that’s where all this is headed.

Im not trying to normalize it. Im laying out what might happen. Nuking anybody is bad for everybody to be clear.

And thus begins the worldwide normalization of using nukes in modern warfare.

The sad thing about all of this is that the Iranian citizens will suffer the most. Iran is one of the oldest settled countries in the world and has a very long history.

Don't get me wrong, the Islamic regime is definitely not a good guy in all of this either. In fact, I don't believe theocratic governments or even state religions should be a thing at all.
