If Iraq had nuclear weapons, do you think they would have been attacked?

Question

For the benefit of those who misunderstood the question, I meant, the nuclear weapons were primed and ready for use.

Answer 1

indeed a big NO. nobody invades pakistan or north korea ...

Answer 2

Iraq was involved in a war with Iran for nearly 8 years.Then it captured Kuwait.UN led foces had to fight a war in Iraq for and also face UN Sanctionss for many yearss.Taking advantage of suc a situation US attacked Iraq undertrumped up charges.
Till date US could not prove to the world any one charge!
Nowhere nuclear weapons were found. WMD was not discovered
Ere long the worl d would impel US to make amends for its omissions and commissions.

Answer 3

This depends and with Sadam I would say yes. He attacked Israel more then once.
Like Iran Now we must attack them before they have it.

We are the strongest nation military wise ever with the most compassion. We do not take over people and rape and robe which is just what will happen if any and every one that wants to see us fall. Muslims, Russia, China, Hugo the little fat man from down south.

The lies about WMD's is a mute point we had to attack unlike Clinton and had Clinton did it with full force and not cut and run in Mogadishu 911 would not have happened. They only know the power of the sword and this thinking we have to treat them as we would want to be treated is a dream. When you will strap bombs on your children and tell them to kill innocent people and heaven is waiting is a lie that you must fight fire with fire.
And the cut and run left must wake up to this or prepare to live under Sharia law. Look at what the Turks did to Christian Armenians and many other cases. Taxed the people who did not convert. Took young girls and wives and enslaved them in th sex trade. This is still going on today and you never hear our left of woman's rights say a word or the so called compassionate left.

We had better use it just for the same reason Reagan was able to bring down the Iron Curtain with star wars. POWER BRINGS PEACE IN THE RIGHT HANDS.

Answer 4

No and nor would they have been if the USA had actually believed that Iraq had WMDs and chemical weapons that could have been put to use on their troops within 30 minutes.
Iraq was no military threat to USA, had no involvement with 9/11, was not, at that time, a base fo Al Qaida and should not have been invaded.

Answer 5

If Iraq had nuclear weapons and no oil to steal they would never have been attacked.
Even without nuclear weapons they are starting to kick our arses. They are fighting with a passion because we have invaded their country unjustly.
George Bush has really, really screwed up on this one in my opinion he should be hauled to a war crimes court.

Answer 6

Of course not, that was one of the main reasons for invading, to keep Saddam from getting a nuke. That's also the reason why Pakistan is such a "valuable ally" they have the means to start a global nuclear war.

Answer 7

Heck NO. That's why the US need to attack before they do. Bush can't even find the weapon of mass destruction remember? The all other reasons (that came later) are just craps to justify their actions. Yeah, why not just attack Pakistan or N. Korea then.

Answer 8

Iraq wouldnt have been attacked if it had nuclear weapons.

Answer 9

Yes I think they would. Didn't old Saddam have that huge gun barrel hidden away in the desert which was pointing at the West ready to fire missiles? He could've stuck anything in it, nuclear, bacterial....! Haven't heard any more about that though or what happened to it. I think he was viewed as a bit of a loose cannon himself so was asking for trouble I reckon.

Answer 10

No, if iraq had nuclear weapons nobody will even think of fighting against them...

Answer 11

they were in fact attacked to stop them getting atomic weapons. and the answer to your question is YES because at the time of the invasion of IRAQ a few stratagists believed the may have had them already, a weak belief but it was present at the time
