You do realize Israel has a red, white , and blue guardian angel , right? No shyt tiny azz Israel can be defeated, but they don't play fair.:pachaha:


That tit for tat stuff over defence systems is meaningless. NO nation can defeat Israel because they must first defeat Washington .
Red/White/Blue couldn't protect itself from the type missile strike im taking about. Missile/rocket/hypersonic tech advancement has far outpaced missile defense. Tel Aviv got rocked in June. Patriot interceptor missiles are in short supply and production is not on pace with demand.

It's getting so bad that Israelis are trying to flee and the Netanyahu has barred them from leaving the country. Isreal is in more trouble than you recognize.

I mean follow this line of thinking....

Suppose Turkey develops nuclear weapons to serve as a deterrent.
And Iran does it.
Then more countries do it.

To the point that several of the most developed countries on earth do it.
You're looking at dozens of countries with nuclear weapons.

How long would it take for the annihilation of potentially billions of people?
Because inevitably the wrong person is going to be in control of these weapons.

Hell, the US and Soviet Union were the biggest superpowers on earth, with largely competent, rational thinking leaders -- and even they came within hours of nuclear war. And not just the Cuban Missile Crisis. Stanislav Petrov single-handedly stopped nuclear war in 1983 because he overruled his own nuclear warning system as a false alarm.

It's literally pure luck we haven't already ended humanity.
But sure, let's increase the risk by giving more nations nuclear weapons.

You people are fukking insane.
The issue is... Israel has 200 or so nuclear weapons. And they have something called the Samson Option which they almost invoked in 1973 against Egypt.

Would be better off pretending you have nuclear weapons. You not gonna use them anyway, so you save billions and still have the psychological "deterrent" everybody else has.

Conpiracy theories about faking moon landings and shyt all day. But faking a nuclear program would actually benefit you
You can’t really bluff intelligence agencies breh

The "funny" thing about having nukes is it didn't prevent Iran from retaliating on nuclear armed Israel. They haven't prevented Ukraine from fighting back against Russia, the country with the largest nuclear arsenal in the world, or launching attacks into Russia proper.

I'm not saying Iran and Turkiye shouldn't get them, but it should be clear that if someone needs, or really wants, to attack you they will.

Turkey is the USA of the Middle East, of course they should have nukes. Only an imperialist would disagree.

with all those earthquakes? fukk no
man... you need a crazy chain reaction to set those things off. you could probably fire an ak-47 at a nuke for a week and just scratch it

i mean... im not gonna try that personally, but yeah. they dont explode cause they hit the ground, they explode because theyre detonated

im not concerned about them being ruptured, im worried about someone out there using the quakes to make the nukes go missing

even the biggest cali earthquakes pale in comparison to deaths and destruction brought on by the big ones in turkey

Every nation should pursue nuclear weapons because the moment you get accused of having them when you DON’T actually have them, get ready to be injected with a dose of “freedom” courtesy of the USA or its vassal state in the Middle East :ufdup:
