Question: will the Iranians hit the US before the election and doom an Obama second term, or will they wait until after he is reelected? I suggest #2. The problem with bombing the US from a shipping container is that radioactive bomb materials have distinctive “finger prints” regarding their origin and processing. Within days of an attack we would know exactly where the fissioable materials came from. Of course, with Obama, he’d do nothing.
Mr. Slavo, quit the BS.
Let's just kick the shit out Iran and Syria.
There is a countdown to the destruction of Iran.
If Israel is forced to take out Iran’s nuclear installations alone then they will have to use neutron weapons. You can only destroy these hardened installations by controlling them with forces on the ground. Neutron devices would allow Israeli forces to quickly control air and ground access to the sites. It would not take a large force to destroy the sites once the Israelis have control of them.
If the US attacks Iran then the sites can be taken by a large conventional attack.
One way or the other the sites will be destroyed....much better if the US does it. If Israel has to do it alone then the nuclear genie will be let out of the bottle.
Neutron weapons can be used to destroy ground forces in a very small area without harming people close by. They could even be used against targets inside Israel itself as long as the enemy had not mixed in with the Israeli population.
Yield and detonation height above ground determine the kill radius.
Nuclear bunker-busters cannot reliably take out the underground installations...they are simply not powerful enough. It would take many of them and they would have to detonate very close to critical areas of the installations and these are probably not known. Using these weapons also lets the nuclear genie escape.
I am an avid book reader and would like to read this one thanks for the ping.Everybody in politics is writing books.How did Newt get into this one?
The West will do nothing.
Israel can do nothing.
Iran will use nukes against Israel, just as soon as they have enough of them weaponized to destroy all ten Israeli cities with populations of over 100,000 (excluding Jerusalem). These cities are about 5x5 miles each, and they will be obliterated.
Iran, and much of the Arab world (hopefully inclusive of Mecca) will then absorb a retaliatory Israeli nuclear attack on their much larger cities, which will be damaged, but not totally destroyed.
If Mecca is not obliterated, this will become the new high holy day of Islam.
The Iranians have surely considered being subjected to EMP and have shielded everything already.
We could send the Alabama and Mississippi national guards over there and kick their butts, eh?
Iran's GDP or population has no bearing on the threat they pose to the civilized world.
Yup.
I was trying to lighten the doomsday demeanor of this posting.
You started it.
Yup.
I'm thinking about starting another.
How do you like that?
The Iranian “navy” has been loitering off our East Coast. It doesn’t take much space to launch a missile especially if the target is big and it doesn’t have to be very precise.

Kearney’s book is so good that I have purchased at least 5 copies over the years.
For example, it contains detailed instructions on how to build a radiation meter out of common household parts.
Thanks blam. EMP is in the NTSA category, I’m afraid. :’)
EMP: over-rated.
