If the Pentagon deems it necessary to initiate a nuclear strike, I would defer to it's judgment. To second guess the military minds of this country the way these foolish lemmings continue to do, is mindless folly !
Truly, the stupid rhetoric from the pie holes of such luminaries as Dirty Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, John Murtha, Chuck Schumer, and their ilk is so overworked and no longer appreciated that it is time these people just went away !

Yes. We were started down the road to nuclear weapons for other than Mutually Assured Destruction by Jimmy Carter.
Reagan then gave the go ahead for the Neutron Bomb. In the meantime the military developed the Atomic cannon and the atomic bunker busters (B61-11)
Now almost every war game planning done includes a nuclear option. When you consider how deep the bunkers are that Iran has its nuclear assets in, the only way to take them out would be to use the nuclear bunker busters.
The question is, which is worse, using a nuclear weapon to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon or letting Iran get a nuclear weapon?
I think Iran with a nuke would be like a 5 year old with a loaded gun. You just can not allow it to happen.

The current U.S. nuclear-use policy, stated in 1995, and reiterated in 2002, reads:
“The United States reaffirms that it will not use nuclear weapons against non-nuclear-weapon state-parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, except in the case of an invasion or any other attack on the United States, its territories, its armed forces or other troops, its allies, or on a state toward which it has a security commitment carried out, or sustained by such a non-nuclear-weapon state in association or alliance with a nuclear-weapon state.”

If we're going to start unilaterally attacking other countries -- just because we don't like them -- the weapons we use are pretty much irrelevant.
Once we declare ourselves to be the global overlords -- and declare that we are going to use military force to enforce US policy in every other country whether they like it or not -- we might as well use our full arsenal.
By that point, we would have already abandoned any concept of international law or rational conduct -- and whether 100,000 die in minutes or months, the results are going to be the same -- so, why risk American lives when we have weapons of mass destruction we can hurl at anyone who disagrees with us.
Note -- I think it's foolish and arrogant and lawless to attack Iran -- but if we're going to be foolish and arrogant and lawless, we might as well not pussyfoot around.
