These nikes would have probably degraded years ago, if they are here. If they are here, they would have been used years ago - like during the Iraq war.
If Islam has these nukes, Israel would be the first target.
All this is not to say there won’t be an attack. When it comes, it will be a surprise as BHO has gutted our intelligence gathering system. When it comes, given his trashing of the CIA, it will be BHO’s downfall.
>If Islam has these nukes, Israel would be the first target.
Not necessarily. It is conceivable that a similar operation would be much more difficult to conduct on Israel for several reasons a) they would expect it, b) they are, by being middle eastern, far more aware of their enemies’s nature, and c) have a much, MUCH smaller surface area to be concerned about.
All those aforementioned differences could amount to, operationally speaking, something an order of magnitude (or two) more difficult to “pull off”.
Assuming you’re a terrorist, which operation are you going to choose: one with a high probability of discovery & thigh value, or one with a low probability of discovery & a [slightly] lesser value?
Wouldn’t even “degraded” nukes cause a lot of deaths and injuries? At the very least, wide spread panic.
And a Police State.
