    Literally heard them say “Trump will let them use nukes”

    And it’s like

    You know why they usually genocide people?

    They’re not going to nuke them, they want the land!

      Also, the wind from the Mediterranean would blow the fallout from a Gaza nuke directly to the east. The reason people have nukes is to attack countries on the other side of the world, not their neighbors. Multiple Hiroshima’s worth of conventional bombs have already been dropped since 10/7…

        This is one of the reasons I’m a little worried for Yemen. They’re exactly the sort of target the Israeli government might consider dropping nukes on. A relatively distant country that’s been a major pain in their ass, which they have no intention of invading, and which wouldn’t be a fallout issue for them.

      Ah yes a nuke would be so much worse than the… thousands of bombs currently being thrown at refugee camps internet-delenda-est
      I do believe Israel would do it though. Yes it is incredibly stupid, only something someone with a babys understanding of the world would even consider, but then again… It’s Israel.
