Fox News reports that Donald Trump may consider using nuclear weapons to eliminate Iran’s Fordo nuclear facility
The U.S. military has reservations regarding the success of using a bunker-buster bomb, a non nuclear weapon, to eliminate Iran’s Fordo nuclear facility, buried deep in a mountain. Two defense officials were reportedly briefed that only a tactical nuclear weapon could reach the facility.
Same as Iraq. The US sells the poison and snake oil to cure it.
Also Afghanistan
Just an fyi, last time he really wanted to use a nuke. No one would let him so they convinced him to use a MOAB (Mother Of All Bombs) instead.

Trump has been itching to be the second person in history to nuke a population. He doesn’t realize what it means because he’s a complete fucking idiot.
No, he knows. I don’t think he cares, because they’re not him. You fail to understand the mind of a narcissist - other people are not people, and the ones who actively say that they dislike you or what you stand for might as well be ants on the sidewalk for all the thought you give about them, ever.
He’s a psychopath, he has no empathy. He doesn’t care at all.
You really can’t believe a word someone like this says. They’ve all read the Art of War, and whatever they claim is going to be strategic misdirection.
Reminds me of his previous term talking about nuking the hurricane.
Shame it was an empty threat; these hurricanes won’t learn otherwise.
Please let this be a time he listens to someone sane.
Gleefully sounding the trumpet for the end of the world
Can somebody please please stop him before he kills us all?
None of his Cabinet will. All of them have been chosen mostly to make sure they don’t get in his way when his Wormtongue gives him ideas.
USA: We drop nukes so you don’t have to
USA: We start wars because that’s the best way to prevent war.
This is a non-story. They think a bunker buster will work now.
He might want to reconsider that given that his gutting of DEI programs cut funding to the company that makes urchins and the US is currently unable to make any new nuclear weapons
