Since 1945, the nuclear paradigm has been that you don’t have to use nuclear weapons, you just have to have them. Every nation state that possessed nuclear weapons didn’t really want to use them.

That has changed. ISIS would gladly use them. I believe Iran will use them, too, but not against Russia or China. Only against us, mainly because they think we would not retailiate. We lack the political will, and they are probably right.

Obama made a statement about absorbing a terrorist attack. It’s at the link. What he should have said is we’ll kick ass if we get hit again. It’ll be substantially more dangerous if not impossible to hit back at Iran after the agreement than before it. Think about Obama’s response to the North Korean sinking of the Chonan; a strongly worded protest.

That means it has to happen while barry is still occupying the Rainbow Mosque.
