It seems like using Nukes as a demonstration on Tokyo Bay was an idea proposed by the Truman regime. Can Nukes be used to demonstrate US' prowess to Al-Qaeda?
What if Al-Qaeda had another attack at US. Will US use nukes then?

Please! As if Al Qaeda could attack a nuclear plant. Most people have no idea how massive their security is. I got to visit a plant once, and it was incredible how much security that you see, much less the security that you don't see.
But that aside, we will only have peace through superior fire power. Of course we should consider nukes as an option. The difficult thing is, however, is that Al Quaeda hides under rocks and in caves all over the world. Hence, we have to draw them out to fight all in one place before we could successfully nuke them. That is why Iraq has been such genius. Sure, we stirred up a hornet's nest over in the middle east, but now the terrorists aren't hiding under their rocks in their villages anymore.
We've killed over 12,000 enemy forces in Iraq just since January. That is incredible, considering they were not mostly Iraqis, but foreign fighters.

Well considering how easy it would be, it should impress, read "shock and awe", what is left of Tehran should be suitabally impressed. And just pulling out of Iraq, puting the troops into the Afastighaian border. And a real scorched earth punitive expedition in British style against the tribes, should get us the "Guests" head in a bag in a couple of months. The DNA should check out. We just don't have a president, or administration that thinks that way. You don't have to win everywhere. Just disengage and go to your enimies weak point. His choke hold, and that is still Afastigian and the tribes in the Pakistan mountains. Three good Divisions, could do it. I Picked them with my ex-brother- in- law right after 9-11. The 101st, 82nd, and 10th Mountain. They were never deployed together in force. They are still the solution to this war. Our forces are mobile and can pick their point of attack. We don't have to be tied down to any country or stragety. We have absolutely nothing to prove. We only have to hunt, defeat, and kill our enemy. Our enimies worst nightmare is bringing back the old " Phoniex" assination program from 'Nam. Plus those three Divisions in line in Afastigian. Right on the line with Pakistan. The Pakistan government does not care if we put enough force on the line. If you want facts, they would welcome it, to put the North west border down awhile. The old British North West Frontier. Use Nukes. No, I would get a bunch more ruthless and ignore the Geneva Convention. These people are not in any uniform or recognized governments service. So they have no legal protection, by the laws of war. So like it or not, I would shoot prisnors with no information worth. I would also torture older captives who clearly were leading and had information.

is US a country (said to be a super power) or a group of street gangsters?
US is not yet able to produce any proofs that Al Qaeda was behind 911 , despite the so called investigations at US Nazi camp at Guantanamo bay ,
Now as last 6 years brutalities in Afghanistan and Iraq having killed Millions of innocent civilians , US needs a new 911 to get out of world hatred,
But what ever drama US+Jews play , and even Nuke some Muslim countries , it will not be decisive ,
and you US citizens and your masters Jews are not aware of the consequences , Israel will be very easily Nuked to reply any such madness.

It will happen only if you are in charge of target selection. Thank God you're not.

We should have used them already. We have to realize the insanity of the people we are dealing with.

If the CIA attacks another US target than I do think the people will rally against Iran and steal their oil too.
