Ridiculously stupid idea. Iran will retaliate with thousands of ballistic missiles. Israel struggled with 100-200 of them. Thousands would do serious damage to Israel and kill so many innocent civilians. The retaliation would kill millions in Iran too.

It’s absurd to even consider this.

Who the hell is any country to tell another it can't have nukes, especially when they themselves have them? Talk about double standards and hypocrisy. Why does Israel get to have nukes? They're the ones actively engaged in a genocidee at the moment, and yet noone is talking about going after isrsels nukes. Just doesnt add up.

We have a binding agreement from almost all countries about this from the UN. Only a few countries didn't sign it, but iran was one the countries that did agree.

We also have been globally denuclearization between formers soviet and nato countries. This was going very well until mid 2000.Its only been a few years ago that lots of this stopped as Russian pulled out and breaking agreements and china increasing their arms.

Denuclearization was only between Soviet and Nato. So china says they never agreed to this nor range/type weaponry. The same for India and Pakistan. Now we have these 3 countries increasing nukes, north Korea making nukes and iran developing some. Sudan and Libya both were trying to make nukes as well. Part of readon for iraq (3 wars was of possible nukes).

Possible Ukraine will be the next country with them. My guess is south Korea and Japan will make their own depending on north Korea and china actions in the area.

We are driving fast into new cold war with many players and harder to control due to lot more asymmetrical warfare occuring.

I hear what ur saying, but I don't mean legally. I mean morally. If one country is allowed them, then all should be imo as long as they have the tech to do so. For israel to have nukes but not Iran is a double standard that I'm not OK with. They've already got America's backing for a genocide taking place and are allowed to break every international law going.

If Iran was going to use nukes, it would have already. Especially if its goal was to destroy Israel like Israel claim. It would be the dumbest thing for any country to do and would almost solidify its own destruction imminently, unless it's one of the major 3 superpowers on the planet (America, Russia, China). They're the only ones I can actually see getting away with using any nukes ever. And totally dependant on who they're using them against, too. If any of them decide to attack each other, then it's game over for them, too.

And how many "others" have Iran destroyed with their nukes exactly?

In fact, who on this planet are the only ones to actually use their nukes on people so far? I'm pretty sure it wasn't Iran.... but maybe I'm remembering the facts incorrectly.... u reckon you could help me put with the details there, bud?

Also, in regards to what hamas did on Oct 7th (which was horrible), was in retaliation to israels illegal occupation and oppression of its land and people for nearly 100 years. I'm not sure any of us can advise a group of oppressed people how to fight back for their land and rights from an apartheid ethnostate occupier with backing from superpowers. But you, of course, seem to know best so can educate me there too. Be my guest. Start with the nukes first....

E: BTW if u block me after sending me a rubbish nonsensical comment without actually answering any of my questions or elaborating on ur statements, it means I can't comment back... so u just killed the convo after having not much to say... great debate!

Need to check all the invasion and land grab boxes. Israel if you want this war badly enough go fight it yourself.

My point is the United States military doesn’t need to get involved. There is a rabid dog on a chain and it’s dragging the US along with it through crimes against humanity.

Iran is the last country on their list. The US, like a dog, has followed accordingly.
