The use of Nukes by Israel or any other country in the region will have devastating effects.
Depending on the kiloton yield, the outcry would be numbing. 500 kiloton strategic nukes would have global suicide implications, while tactical nukes will have regional implications.
Strategic nukes, at least a dozen of them in the 500 kiloton range would take out the middle east and vaporize around 190 million (3% of the world). Another 200 million in nearby countries would die from radioactive poisoning, and their only crime would be living next door to the Middle East.
Carl Sagan estimated a very low threshold for nuclear winter, a 100 kiloton blast would ignite fires that would cause a nuclear winter....ie, the sun would be blotted out due to the dust and ash from the fires and all plant life would cease to exist....followed shortly thereafter by animal life.
So the option of eliminating the middle east by nukes is global suicide....which is why nukes have been a deterrent to total war for the past 60 years....altho it is a very enticing option.

Nukes are best used when not used at all. See the Cold War theory of mad. That said trust me I am soldier I know the ROE sucks. We dont need to use nukes right now we just need to be able to fight back without giving a damm about what Amnesty international or Human Rights watch says.

nukes r like turnaquits. they seem like a good EZ idea at first but its a last resort and has major bad affects, like losing a lim or the country attacking back at us.

And you sound like you have the same qualities that you have attributed to people that you have labeled mudbags. You have made people into objects with your label, and your suggestion means that you have become (at least at the moment) what you most fear from them.
In other words, what you most fear are the negative qualities that you believe people in the middle east have. And you have become someone with the same negative qualities that you fear by suggesting that we bomb them.

And the ensuing nuclear winter would completely end global warming. Two birds one stone. Besides, fallout is a liberal conspiracy right?
