"Hardball" Roundtable: Donald Trump Won't Rule Out Nuking ISIS, Entire World "Freaks Out"
Nobody pointed out that even small nukes are so destructive as to be incapable of counterforce use against ISIS anywhere in the world.
Using them would be a conscious decision to slaughter vast numbers of captive civilians, far more numerous than the ISIS fighters who would be killed.
Chris's argument against their use was that they had only been used to destroy Nagasaki and Hiroshima and so it would be really, really bad and the world would not approve.
A Republican spokesman actually insisted Trump was right to leave their use on the table.
Update.
It is known that Muslim Jihaders would love to use weapons of mass destruction against the Occident.
Has it occurred to no one that using nukes, or even in such an indirect way threatening to use them, against Muslims might spur a much more determined effort by Jihaders to lay hands on WMD and use them against Western cities as soon as they possibly can?
