In reply to the discussion: UN planning for a nuclear strike on Iran by US/Israel [View all]lapfog_1
(31,904 posts)27. I rather imagine that the discussion
is about the use of a small tactical nuke on a certain mountain in Iran.
One that has tunnels 500 meters below the surface where, it is claimed, that Iran has stored 2/3rds of its remaining missiles and, possibly, some scuba tank sized containers of enriched uranium.
The idea is to create enough of a shock wave to kill any people inside, and create conditions at the surface to make it difficult to enter the mountain and retrieve the uranium or remaining ballistic missiles.
the bunker buster conventional weapons cannot reach the underground tunnels and rooms.
even if a nuke is used, the effectiveness is likely unknown.
But I'm sure Donny wants to try it... not to mention the psychopath Kegsbreath.

Yes. I mean it would be an alternate universe for the UN to start a nuclear war..
