In reply to the discussion: UN planning for a nuclear strike on Iran by US/Israel [View all]2na fisherman
(328 posts)If the US strikes Iran's nuclear power facilities with conventional explosive munitions, the meltdowns of those facilities and the ensuing dispersal of radioactive dust will make huge areas of the country uninhabitable in addition to the mass casualties. The consequences of this will last for years. Millions of people will be displaced destabilizing the entire region with additional damage to global economies likened to a Great Depression. America will have become a pariah nation and tried before The Hague to make reparations and pay for crimes against humanity. I hope Trump (and Netanyahu) are stopped before it gets this bad. But a "worse case scenario" must now be planned for because something so "unthinkable" is well within their amoral minds if they become more like cornered rats with no other options than mass destruction.
