Belle's comment that we might "Meme ourselves into a war" is important.
Almost all wars are initiated due to some bad idea becoming mainstream.

and we've been hearing Iran is only a few weeks/days away from testing a nuke ever since the Dubya administration, over 20 years now.

Iran has sorta kinda admitted to having a stockpile of weapons grade uranium in addition to its power plant grade stockpile. It's a far cry from that to a working bomb and they've been under sanctions so long I doubt they have the wherewithal to do it, although their scientists are perfectly capable, they've been sending their best and brightest to MIT and Cal. Tech since before the revolution. It would be a bad idea not to destroy it, though, since they could so easily sell it to people we don't want them to, like NOrth Korea, a deal Putin would love to facilitate.

I'd just as soon see that stuff blown up and buried. I just don't know if the US is going to insist on dropping the bombs that have been specially designed to do that very job and what will happen if we do.

I hate this shit. I especially hate liars and incompetents running our government, especially when we're pretty sure some are Russian assets.
