      Republicans say the dumbest shit ever, but it’s also incredibly stupid to believe that would actually happen. Nuking Gaza would mean fallout hitting Israel, it’s not something that would ever be approved.

            Ah, because a weapon hasn’t been used against people yet, it can never be used against people in the future, right?

              If they were so practical, they would be used in practice instead of things like MOABs. Do you think all the hubbub over nuclear weapons is just based on nothing? Russia has directly threatened using nukes themselves and yet haven’t. Tell me, why do you think that is? Reality is on my side here, all you have to go by is “there is a possibility they could be used!!” but that’s true for anything that exists.

          Considering how close they are, yes it is. If you’re going to be pedantic, at least explain how I’m wrong. Regardless, Israel doesn’t want Palestine itself irradiated because they plan on stealing that land anyway.

            If you do it right, most of the fallout is whisked away into the upper atmosphere, and if you’re bombing somewhere that you have air superiority, you can even wait for favorable wind and atmospheric conditions where it won’t blow back at you.

            they plan on stealing that land anyway

            That’s the real reason neither Israel nor the US will nuke Palestine
