Just want to get some perspective on what people think of the American reaction. I’m NOT asking if it will happen. I’m asking what do you think Americans will do, if anything if this happens. Do you think people will just not care or protest on the streets?
Edit: What would your reaction would be? (even if not American)
Personally I would at that point be making a trip to the capital because the Orange fucker will have placed not just Iranians, not just American citizens, but all human life on earth at risk.
Keep in mind that other nations like Russia and China would have less than 5 minutes to react to an intercontinental missile heading vaguely in their direction, they could choose to retaliate and mutually ensure destruction.
I highly recommend watching House of Dynamite. It shows how super quickly everybody reacts. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.
Yes, they’d have to be willing to bet that it’s true destination is Iran. If it’s a bomber this isn’t a problem, but america doesn’t have air superiority in Iran
Also I think small portable nuclear weapons are out of fashion given smuggling capability. Could be wrong, though.
Not exactly in your pocket, but James Bond has shown several times how they can be carried on small trucks. Still plausible.
