Do you really think if a nuke went off in a major city or a missile was launched by some non-government group there would be a nuclear attack on Iran
even if a few weeks later the signature of the bomb was theirs?
I don't...
Let me ask you this, if Iran had a posture of a peaceful nature what country would want to attack them?
LoL..
Are you serious???
What NON-Government group could possibly launch a
Nuclear ICBM with out the direct assistance of a government???!!??---(apart from some kinda
crazy Die Hard/James Bond type of scenario)
And you should bet your sweet ass if New York, Jerusalem, London or any other city was nuked and the signature was a match for ANY country ... they
would get a layer of Fallout on them in the extreme...
However... you are arguing that it could happen.. I say that it would only happen if the proverbial "THEY" allowed it to happen - perhaps the future
event will take place on the same exact day that 4 major training operations are going on..one of them including a city being nuked...hmmmzz
Using a nuke preemptively is a kick in the balls... a foul... and a total crime above most others...
Who could possibly oppose retaliation after such an event??
More so, the fiction that a "Terrorist" group would use such a device is Hollywood fantasy...
Besides the facts behind most of the major "Terrorist" groups are fabricated, exaggerated, and viewed through a single lens ...
Any of the genuine ones have something tangible to fight for...
REAL "Terrorist" groups usually equate to groups who are fighting an oppression/occupation/etc of some sorts against a vastly superior fighting
machine that they have no choice then to revert to guerrilla tactics. They do not have Aircraft, Trillion dollar budgets, Navies, Tanks, Etc...They
are usually fighting for their homelands in one way or another... and would have nothing to gain and everything to lose for using such a device...
The manufactured Terrorist groups are a front... This is provable in many different ways, and could possibly be responsible for the hypothetical
nuclear attack... However the problem lies in them getting one anywhere near a target...
Once again.. because I do not think you are listening to me when I tell you this..
THIS IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DO... It is easier to pull off sneaking back into bed with your smoldering wife after a night out of heavy drinking
with the boys... then it would be to do that...
SO.. If it happens .. It is because it was allowed...
--
To address your last question...
There are plenty of countries that would want to do that..Namely the one you and I live in, and its satellite state of Israel... The reasons are
apparent, however a couple are obviously able to fulfill many different facets of the current paradigm...
- To make the followers of a popular religeous text think their "prophacies" are coming true...
&
- To secure energy sources so our petroleum backed dollar does not totally collapse... Remember that Iran is about to trade Oil in Euros.... Just like
Saddam... We have not forgotten that fact have we?
Still I would like to refocus the question you asked to me...
"Let me ask you this, if the United States/Israel had a posture of a peaceful nature what country/group would want to attack them?"
