Vitriol Espresso "I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I'll kill you all." General James Mattis

There's something people aren't understanding too clearly. Why is it so important that Iran has the capability to create a nuclear weapon? Well, there's several reasons. One, they can toss it at Israel or any other installation close enough for their rockets to reach. That means US citizens are in mortal danger just being on that side of the planet. Two, they don't actually have to use it in ONE bomb. The innards of one nuclear weapon can make several dirty bombs easily. Assuming the mullahs want to do it that way. I don't see that happening, honestly. It averts their supreme authority and gives it to too many smaller fish. And finally, Three. EMP or Electromagnetic Pulse. All they'd really have to do is explode their one bomb above the intended target. They don't even have to be accurate or hit anything. The EMP would disable electronics long enough to destroy any country beneath the blast. That's what we get for living in a techno world.

Don't be scared too much. The chances of someone getting one little nuclear bomb into US airspace is pretty damn slim. Now if they had 50 or more it'd be a different story. But nobody with that number of nukes is willing to face the wrath of our superior weaponry and excellently trained ground troops. However, if you live in Israel you are probably thinking of ways to buy self-powered items. Like the hand-crank radio or shake flashlights. So when you think to yourself about Obama and all his fancy schmancy promises? Think about the one where he said he wouldn't back up Israel anymore.

They got until the 20th of January.
