Will Teheran Glow In The Dark?

Things could not look worse in Iraq. Violence all over the country, murders, executions, firefights, and still the White House refuses to call it a civil war. US soldiers dying almost daily and with little to show for it, other than the satisfaction of trying to do what they believe to be right. How will it all end? Impossible to see but either way it is going to be bloody and we are going to feel the blowback here in the US for years to come.
Now, to make matters worse, Iran is attempting to assert their influence in the deepening conflict and President Bush seems determined to stop this no matter what the cost. Bush will go ahead without batting an eye, regardless of the international consequences.
I often hear the question in the media: Is the war on terror justified? That debate will likely trouble scholars for decades to come and cannot be decided by the bipolar trends of the polls.
I say yes. However, this yes comes with qualification.
Should The United States hunt down the terrorists that mastermind the 9/11 attacks? Yes. Should we have invaded Iraq? No. Should we attack Iran? The time to deal with Iran militarily has passed but it is highly likely we will do it anyway.
Now, the big question, will the US use tactical nukes to achieve this goal. Rubbing my crystal ball, peering into the ethereal plane of, “oh shit what if that happens?” I say with the US military stretched thin and the rugged Zargos Mountains encircling Iran, it is very likely, almost a definite that the US will use tactical (low yield, 10 KT or less) nuclear weapons.
The result? International chaos that makes the current state of affairs seem tame by comparison.
Even the atheists should pray about this one.
