Yay for genocide! :roll:

Let's start with Saudi Arabia, just to piss off the SUV drivers.

Justifiable genocide - that entire part of the world has been a gigantic thorn in the developed world's side for a VERY long time. The leaders of the IMPORTANT countries would barely bat an eye at that type of response to that type of attack - if they didn't contribute warheads oftheir own.

(Important countries: US, Canada, UK, Russia, China, Australia, Germany, France)

Your typical macho response to this hypothetical situation has a few too many holes in it, despite how true you and your Nascar buddies would want it to be.

Bombing Saudi Arabia would be like shooting our own nation in the foot. Let's face it, we're NEVER going to bomb the Saudis.

The two BIGGEST opponents to your so-called genocide would be China and Russia, because of their location and their ties to much of south and southeast Asia (which are mostly populated by Muslims). I'm sure Russia would love for us to stir up some nuclear fallout in that region of the world, as would China. So I guess that means no bombing Pakistan, Afghanistan, and a lot of other "istans" in the area.

Bomb Iran? Well we know they couldn't have made any nuclear weapons, and unless we found ties from any attacks to their leaders, we'd have a tough case for bombing them. Also any attack on Iran means that Israel would be bombed as well.

Bomb Iraq? Sure why not, we did it once, lets do it again. Halliburton doesn't mind.

Bombing African Muslim nations? Well seeing as how they are poor as dirt and have no military capability whatsoever...nope, not likely.

What about some Pacific Muslim nations? I'm sure tsunami cleanup is finished and they're primed and ready to get nuked. That will win over your "important countries".

I'm sure the old "lets turn the Middle East into a glass parking lot" comment wins over the crowds at the rodeo, but we all know its an empty threat.

Sense and planning doesn't come into play in a nuclear scenario - just a gigantic, worldwide "WTF", a few seconds of fingerpointing, and then about 45 minutes of ominous nothing, followed by a lot of death and destruction. There is no "bombing" - there is no "debating" there is no "making a case" - there is MAYBE a few phone calls between world leaders saying "These aren't pointed at you, chill the F out"

And then we spend the next 200 years dealing with it - at least those of us who survive.

Nah, still don't believe it. You can't nuke 1.3 billion people. You can't nuke a religion. And you certainly can't nuke al-Qaeda. There is no haven for al-Qaeda anymore like there was in Afghanistan; they're spread out from NYC to Bali, and nuking one cell doesn't affect another.

If we pick a nation to retaliate on, it will most likely be Iran. But the US doesn't have the resources to handle the fallout from nuking a few dozen countries.

Fixed. If it goes down - it's over for all intents and purposes.

And it's up to the people who run this great nation to decide it it's worth setting back humanity a few hundred years so we can get a sucker punch in.
 
Now that you have heard the news. I'm selling Anti-Nuclear-Attack Pants only for SIX payments of $99.95 (shipping is not included).
 
hello kind friends, i am selling for the low low price of $3,200 your own personal nuclear shelter cage. constructed from high-grade steel enforced space-age plastics used by nasa and the russian goverment, these light-weight yet highly sturdy structures keep out 73 different kinds of radiation. and if you act now, i will throw in 2 free nuclear fallout masks... you know, for the times you have to go out and scavage for food in the rubble after everyone else who isn't smart like you is dead.

act now!!! or before saturday.

edit: damn too slow. but where can i buy these pants you speak of!!!!!!!!
 
Osama Bin Laden is not the one who will be launching the attack, he will just be the one taking credit for it. The orchestrator you may have heard of is Dick Cheney. As discussed in this P&N thread 4 days ago.

The staged terrorist attack, which will be used as an excuse to nuke Iran, will be against cities perceived as part of America's heartland. (NOT NY and LA, the grapevine/telephone process mangled your story a bit).

Not true. I was walking home tonight and this Arab guy dropped his wallet. I grabbed it, caught up with him and returned it. He thanked me and told me to stay away from NYC and San Francisco on Saturday. I could swear he called it "Jew York" but I can't be certain.

Bin Laden has placed portions of his soul into multiple Horcruxes safely hidden around the caves of Afghanistan. He may only be a shadow of his former self at the moment, but he will return and be a stronger wizard than any of us could imagine.

Oh wait...

haha! LMAO! Does someone big die? ;-)
 
i do not believe in that crap. a nuclear bomb in the US? where did they get the uranium? just another scare and i doubt there will be an attack
