Everyone expects a nuclear war. There is a reason there has not been one yet. It is because when people saw the horrible results of the Japanese bombings it was un-officialy determined that it could not happen again. The only reason people have nuclear weapons are as a deterrent. They are used to say if they bomb me I will bomb them. Russia will not go against the US. If they went against the US they would lose. They would not use nukes because if they did the US would use Nukes on them. Both countries would be totally destroyed, but Russia more so and nothing would really be achieved. The most that is going to happen is the US would support Israel through words and Russia would do the same with Iran. The two countries would fight, Israel would win because they always win, and we would sit back, relax, and wait for the next war. This is not likely to happen because I don't think Iran is going to get involved.

Yes I will be glad I supported Israel no matter what. What is right is right whether it is in your selfish interest or not. It is that kind of cowardliness that allowed the Holocaust in the first place.
Besides I hardly think that the Russians are going to go out on a limb for Iran on an ideological basis. Russia supports Iran because Iran is a good customer and it makes economical sense for Russia to support Iran. Russia also likes that Iran is an hindrance to the USA. If Russia where to nuke the USA it wouldn't help them economically, it would hurt them as much as anybody else. Besides Russia also supported Iraq before the war and we ain't been nuked yet.

Russia wont nuke the US. That's a very immature thing to say.
Let's assume we did get into a war with Iran. No Russia doesn't support Iran first of all. Second of all if Russia did it WOULDN'T launch a nuke. America has many many more nukes than it and if Russia did launch a nuke it's foreign appeal would go down the drain. Embargos would come up from other countries quickly and Russia would plumit... Just like if America used a nuke. Nukes are very very very bad publicity.

its unlikely America will have a war with Iran.. there closest Allie.. is having trouble controlling a very small group ov people never mind taking on Iran.. because Iran ain't weak at all..its not like Iraq.. its one ov the most spending country's in the world on their army.. and as u said Russia is backing them.. so their is no chance in hell they would attack Iran.. if they do that.Iran would probably attack Israel.. and take it over easy.. and no Russia wouldn't not nuke America.. but it will probably point their missiles at them tho..
my view is that Israel is in deep ****.. and the only way it will get out ov it is by making peace fast.. and America has Iraq to worry about anyway..!!

Not long after the "fall" of the Iron Curtain, the Soviet Union (Russia) openly admitted that they have no credible nuclear arsenal. It is mind numbingly expensive to wage a war (look at how much it is costing the Americans to be in Iraq) and Russia is not what anyone would call a wealthy nation.
Your last sentence smacks of a certain superior morality which is a necessary ingredient in warmongering.

Russia is not going to nuke the US. Even though they may back Iran its not worth it to them to get involved in war with the US.

I would feel really sorry for the Russians. Most of their Nuclear arsenal has been in operating condition for fifteen years and even then the technology was awful. Their conventional forces against the modern U.S. Military and its allies would be a huge mistake that would force us K.O. them so fast that they wouldn't know what hit them in addition, the fear of China that resides in most Russians would give them pause, because China is just waiting like a coiled serpent to take the Russians out.

Russia won't attack us unless China does too. China is in our pocket, though militarily they are just as strong. Russia isn't as strong economically, so technically they need us to trade with as well.
Therefore, your question is a moot point.
Besides, even Russia realizes that part of our problem with the Iranian government is their blatant disregard of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. They have a problem with it too, they're just not looking to use force at this point. No one is, though everyone knows they're prepared for it.
