BOMBS AWAY TO ANSWERS

Answer 1

NO!!! Do you mean kill everyone who does not agree with America? How crazy is that? I need to forget Yahoo! Answers........

Answer 2

Nope , Too many bodies, Too much cost and time to clean that stuff up and it would be much easier to just treat people better and for the US to adjust it's foreign policy, not to mention pissing off the people who are around the areas you nuked but whom you still might want to talk to (India, China, Russia, Europe, Africa).

Besides, Israel has a nasty tendency to be not such a great ally to the US anyway , (see USS Liberty, AIPAC, spying against the US, many human rights violations over time) stuff like that makes the US look bad to the Arabs and Palestinians. Nevertheless, I think the US should honor it's alliance to Israel but make sure the Israeli's treat the Palestinians better and work towards the interests of the US not the other way around.

Besides, Use too many nukes and you screw the whole planet.

If North Korea saw it coming, they could pop off some nukes at either South Korea, Japan or China before the US could do anything about it.

One thing Mr. Bin Ladin and company must always be mindful of is that if they EVER used a nuke against the US or US interests, the Americans probably already have a short list of countries and cities they would take out in automatic retaliation - so they might take out New York or Washington but have to watch Mecca, Islamabad, Karachi and Dubai go up in smoke.

The same is true for the US, if the US used nukes terrorists and other nations could feel free to use the weapons themselves.

Nuclear weapons are funny , using them is not determined so much by how much you hate your enemy so much as how much you love your own people.

Answer 3

No, I would selectively target Fallujah, ar-Ramadi, and Sadr City, and wipe them out with fire bombs. The nuclear fall-out would be avoided, but we could eliminate as much of the resistance by "draining the ocean" to get the fish.

To talk of nuking the entire Mideast is like a child who can't understand the game, and knocks all the pieces off the board in frustration. Or because he knows he has lost. I don't think this has to be the case.

You need to have patience, to bag your deer. If you rush the hunt, you spoil the game.

Taking Troy took over ten years. The playing field then was the Aegean Sea, Greece, Hellespont, and Ionian and Cappadician Turkey. You have to realize we have a global playing field.

Nuke the whole MidEast and you lose. That's like the crazy guys in Mouse Trap who out of frustration in the effort to get the mouse, destroyed the whole mansion.

I am neither Republican nor Democrat. We need all sides to come together to win.

Answer 4

No, because innocent people might die and how do you think the rest of the world will operate with contaminated Oil.....but the Islamo fascists would love to nuke the oil fields send the entire world back 500 years. That's what they want.

Can you imagine the kayos nuking the middle east, millions would die around the world. Oil makes thousands of products from medical to plastics....electric producing plants would run out, towns would loose electricity, people would die in hospitals or ambulances could not dispatch to help people, their generators long empty of fuel....Anyone who says the middle east is not about oil is a fool....and most seem to be liberals. If it were not for the west, it would still be in the ground. No one has the right to use that as a blackmail threat..

Those countries are being paid market dollars, why is it the west's fault their governments do not give it to them, but wait perhaps they do, Saudi Arabia has to import workers, because Saudis are too lazy to work for normal wages.....or are too wealthy.

Its about oil, and trust me just like the movie Day of the Condor, when you are freezing in your houses, you will demand that our government go and take it. I don't care if your liberal or conservative.

Answer 5

My response to 9-11 would have been: Bomb the Mecca during ramadam, and I mean, flatten the whole place with a nuke, our only friend in the Middle East is Israel, and they, themselves, have elected a Prime Minister that is a softy and a lefty, (remember the Hezbos and Lebanon?) They played the stupid "cease fire, let;s talk" game, and what happened? Well, they still have the kidnapped soldiers in captivity. What this world needs is balls, just go all out, start the big one, Islam will always hate "infidels", and that means you, me, black, asian, white, latino, it doesnt matter, as long as you dont practice their religion, they will go after you anyways, so, we might as well wake up, they live the culture of death, they commit suicide just to kill infidels, they love death, so let's give them a hand and help them find their way to "Heaven and the 72 or whatever virgins".
The more we try to reason with them (islamafascists) the more chances they have to plan to blow some other American landmark. Nuke 'em, or we'll pay for it

Answer 6

I’m a liberal. The party of common sense. NO I would not nuke a large group of innocent people just to remove the small number of people that threaten us. I may level allot of N. Korea though. Nuclear bombs are wrong; regardless of who makes them or uses them. Oh and why not Israel - they are basically a genocidal powerhouse against the Palestinians.

Answer 7

I'm a Jewish Republican (be nice to me, I'm an endangered species). I think that we MUST stop N Korea & Iran from obtaining a functional nuke arsenal using whatever means are necessary. I think (& hope) that this can be done with conventional weapons. If not, it's them or us. I've grown rather fond of living.

Answer 8

that is like asserting it could have been okay to nuke Western Europe as quickly as we had the Crusades and witch burnings and persecution of non-believers etc. the middle East needs help to deliver them to a extra wealthy, civilised and enlightened society - they might desire to circulate in the time of an identical technique because of the fact the Western international did, yet with any luck will gain it in a appreciably shorter time than we did, with our encouragement.

Answer 9

No to nukes, too much potential for catastrophe if we go down that road. We are already the only nation who ever used the atomic bomb, we of all peoples should know better than to ever use it again.

Some people think no one would retaliate - maybe not now, but who knows down the road...

Answer 10

No. Whether your religious or not, killing off babies, women, children, and inocent men is pure evil. Also, the fallout of that magnitude would be worldly catastrophic, not to mention you would be bombing Saudi Arabia ($$$$$ $$$$$$ as the republicans know it) and that would be very bad economically. Another point: Russia/China would definitely flatten us the minute we did it.

Answer 11

well... if you nuke the entire thing... even if you don't hit Israel directly... they are pretty much toast from the fallout... just saying...

perhaps some tactical nukes in a few key places would do some good...
