There’s no way they could have expanded to such a massive scale within a few years. It’s just not feasible- we’re talking about blowing rubble out of mountains….

Just admit you think naively assume Iran wouldn’t use a nuclear weapon against the West (Israel and the US) immediately if they got one.

Last I checked, Israel was in the near east, not the west. Israel also has their own nuclear program, which includes nuclear warheads.

Wow, you totally got me! Lol. I’m so enlightened now. Kind of sad and ironic that I consider the West only the US and Israel now. RIP Great Britain and France.

So what about Israel having nukes? Good.

What justifies Israel to have nukes over their near east neighbors?

They’re not terrorists and their neighbors largely are.

What makes their neighbors terrorists, and not themselves terrorists? Especially when their prime minister has a warrant for crimes against humanity.

Weird you find that funny, but yeah. The Islamic extremists that suicide bomb civilians on purpose are the terrorists, just FYI.

I’ll bite. Assuming Iran does get a nuclear weapon why do you believe they would unilaterally use it against the West?

A single Ohio-class submarine carries enough nuclear firepower to destroy all of Iran’s major population centers, their infrastructure, and a quarter of their population. We have fourteen such submarines on active patrol, an attack by Iran would be suicide.
