I think you have some misconceptions about the power of nuclear weapons. Cancer and uninhabitable zones in the former countries are what you'd have to worry about if you weren't in one of the involved countries.


Also the collapse of the world economy, mass migrations, environmental damage, and so on.

Let's just say I'd be unlikely to survive the world which followed, even if some other humans did.

MAD is "Everyone involved in the war gets glassed, everyone else gets fallout."

The Samson option is "Everyone gets glassed."

The Israelis don't have enough to glass everyone, just enough to glass the places that matter: Moscow, D.C., London, Paris, Rome, Milan, Bejing, Tokyo, Mecca, Medina, Cairo, Sao Paulo, etc.

As for that, well I mean plenty of Western countries have bigotry within their ranks. Is France not Western because they deported thousands of Roma? Is Switzerland not part of the West because of its minaret ban? Quebec with its ban on the niqab and burqa? Is America not part of the West because of what went on in Gitmo?

"A terrible ally"

Bru Canada follows us into all of our wars, no matter how stupid. Their special forces units are highly regarded. Canada is a good part of the West. We all make mistakes. The difference is when a pattern emerges.

It's a little different, because most Israelis aren't religious. They view themselves as an ethno-state, not as a religious group, and then they persecute the Haredi for not buying into this notion (look up Israeli police attacking Haredi on youtube).

Ethno-religious, but it doesn't change that for the Israelis if they go they consider it done for the Jewish people. You do realise that Israelis consider all Jews to be part of the Jewish nation, yes? That Israel is to be the Jewish homeland? That it is rather easy for a Jewish person to move and settle down there?

Once he puts the gun down and lets his defense rest, then yes you brutally murder them to make a point about treachery. This was in our villainy courses, I shouldn't have to explain it.

Which is pretty much going to be everyone because china isn't going to let Israel nuke them without a retaliation, which would cause a chain reaction leading to all nations firing on each other

Can you outrun a bullet or in our real life case, a whole mess of ICBMs? Conventional war against some Arabs is much preferable to do defending against a nuclear strike.

They don't, Ethiopian and other non-Ashkenazi Jews are also persecuted quite a bit. It's an Ashkenazi ethno-state more than anything.

Nah, but there is a chance of shooting it down or minimizing its effects. I'm not saying this is what countries would do if faced with the choice. This is just what I would personally do.

This is why we need to invest in that high-tech laser anti-missile shit that was going on a while back. Make nuclear threats worthless, or at least worth less.

I believe your intelligence chief warned about Chinese compromise of the Canadian system and was shouted down with cries of racism. Truly, you are the post-nation nation.
