Maybe Israel/US can’t beat Iran.

      One path to avoid MAD is through a limited strike on US. Missile defense systems theoretically protect from such strikes, though perhaps not from coastal sub strikes. A single nuclear strike on US collapses the country. With multiple theater wars/enemies, port detonations have no certain accountability for the strike.

        Hahahahah no a single strike would not collapse the country genuinely do not understand how anyone is that silly to think that. Absolutely laughable.

        You think everyone lives in one city? You’d cripple Moscow or Tokyo with one strike and really fuck up their country but places like China and America have too many population hubs one strike would not cripple them at all especially when you calculate the American military bases globally positioned for exactly what your peabrain thinks.

        Lmfaooooo

          The US is a bank masquerading as a country. A single strike does collapse the US for its already high debt levels. There is no resilience to needing massive additional reconstruction/spending projects.

            Every country is a bank? You’re vision of how all this works is entirely screwed.

            Absolutely goofy. You think a nuke hits and suddenly the next day the dollar is worthless? Absolute moron

              Russia did not collapse under sanctions because it has actual industry. energy and metals to feed manufacturing. US does not have the luxury of banking bankruptcies or debt credibility strains.
