May I answer that?

A question was posed to the prez candidates at the last town hall debate. Allow me to paraphrase.

Say everything breaks down and Iran launches a missile that strikes Israel, do you send the military?

Their answers were predictable blah blah blah.

Here's mine.

Alright, let's cut the bullshit and talk realities. For one, the Israelies would never let Iran get a missle with a nuclear warhead in the air. It just wouldn't happen but say it did just for the sake of the second part of my answer.

We would not have time to respond before Israel turned Iran into a glass coated parking lot. We ALL know that Isreal has nukes. We ALL know what Israel can do in a war. Ask Egypt, Syria, and Jordan, who have all been singing soprano in the region since the six day war in 1967. Just the title of that war, SIX DAY WAR should give you the answer to any "what if...place the name of any middle eastern country here..attacked Israel".

The six day war was fought with conventional weapons. Toss nukes in the mix and you could knock a few days off.

Next question
