@Joe_Limon right. They just don’t explode that easily. They have to be armed.

2019-09-18 03:55:48 UTC  

He's probably citing what happened in the Sum of All Fears.

2019-09-18 03:56:08 UTC  

God I miss when Clancy wrote his own books

2019-09-18 03:56:18 UTC  

and when he was alive

2019-09-18 03:56:20 UTC  

@wolfman1911 some fictional story?

2019-09-18 03:56:26 UTC  

Yeah

2019-09-18 03:56:31 UTC  

I don’t care about imaginary threats.

2019-09-18 03:56:45 UTC  

In that book, during the six day war an Israeli jet was accidentally sent out carrying a nuke and then got shot down, and then decades later the bad guys found and recovered the nuke, armed it and used it against the US.

They can threaten anything they want. That doesn't mean that they haven't been working on it all this time. Shock of all shocks, the Iranians might be lying.

2019-09-18 03:58:16 UTC  

ah you're right

2019-09-18 03:58:21 UTC  

seems to need to be armed

2019-09-18 03:58:21 UTC  

If Iran nukes anyone then they will be wiped off the face of the earth.

2019-09-18 03:58:52 UTC  

Nuclear bombs are like putting giant beware of dog signs on the country

2019-09-18 03:59:07 UTC  

They are meant to be a deterrent.

2019-09-18 03:59:13 UTC  

plus we've suspected for 30 years the Israelis have nukes

2019-09-18 03:59:14 UTC  

Iran only seeks nukes for sovereignty and the power to ensure they don't get fucked in trade wars.

2019-09-18 03:59:25 UTC  

And I’d argue that it works.

2019-09-18 04:00:06 UTC  

for the record I don;t think the deal was all fox news made it out to be but it wasn;t a magic bullet ether

2019-09-18 04:00:06 UTC  

Kept the US and Soviets from engaging directly in war.

2019-09-18 04:01:30 UTC  

I think it’s an entirely overrated issue.

2019-09-18 04:01:43 UTC  

agreed

2019-09-18 04:01:50 UTC  

Even though I think foreign policy is the hardest topic

2019-09-18 04:01:53 UTC  

Lol

2019-09-18 04:02:43 UTC  

Ok. Bedtime

2019-09-18 04:03:05 UTC  

it was a medoiore deal from a presidency who's foreign policy was pretty mediocre too

2019-09-18 04:03:33 UTC  

not awful, not great

2019-09-18 04:04:28 UTC  

Tulsi for national security advisor after DNC cheats her out of her candidacy

2019-09-18 04:04:46 UTC  

why

2019-09-18 04:05:15 UTC  

she'll just get overruled by the "but daddy" wing of the Trump presidency on every important decision

2019-09-18 04:05:20 UTC  

even if Israel has nukes they wouldn't use them they have so much support from people they would lose a lot if they did

2019-09-18 04:05:44 UTC  

idk

2019-09-18 04:06:28 UTC  

I think most of the same people who hate Israel would wake up still hating Israel and most of the people who defend Israel would wake up and figure a way to defend Israel

2019-09-18 04:06:52 UTC  

yes but at least one side would be wrong at that point

2019-09-18 04:07:00 UTC  

or more clearly wrong I guess

2019-09-18 04:07:04 UTC  

Nuking a country that was gonna nuke you doesn't seem like it's gonna lose anyone you already had in your camp

2019-09-18 04:07:15 UTC  

mmmm

2019-09-18 04:07:21 UTC  

you'd have to prove they were going to nuke you

2019-09-18 04:07:33 UTC  

idk

2019-09-18 04:07:41 UTC  

prove to who?
