This is a live thread, I bet the title changes later. But this is what it reads now:
Iran live updates: Trump says Iran ‘can be taken out in one night’
“The entire country can be taken out in one night, and that night might be tomorrow night,” he said of Iran during a briefing at the White House.
What a Stable genius
Would likely require a few more than one nuke … Iran is pretty big
Yes a few. It’s beyond disturbing to contemplate for a lot of reasons.
I think we have nukes now that one could level half the United States. So not sure we need more than one.
But really what happens if he does this? Trump wants to use one so badly I see him doing so before his time is up. Just want to know the consequences of him doing so?
Err pretty sure that’s not a thing. The biggest nuke detonated was tzar bomba and it most certainly was nowhere near devastating half the US. It was detonated in Kazakhstan. There still people living there and it’s much smaller than the US.
I would suggest that dropping on on Iran would be a significant war crime, and a crime against humanity. At the very least the Trump and his chain of command would be wanted for war crimes across the globe including at least half the US. Further to this they’d be breaking the gentleman’s agreement that no-one uses nukes so would we be entering. MAD situation?
