Preparing for a possible next major World War

So what do we think, deadline on Iran is 1am UK time tomorrow morning - will he? won't he?

I'm still waiting (and hoping) for a TACO moment - I think if he goes ahead and does this, it will have HUGE repercussions around the world for years to come.
TACO once he's told all his mates so they can cash in and make a fortune on the markets, again. They even brag about how much money they made on the markets in the Oval Office on camera, they're not even bothering to hide their corruption.
 
Given Trump’s latest tweet (‘whole civilisation will die tonight’) I think there is a greater than even chance that we wake up tomorrow to see he’s used the nukes.

Don’t hold your breath that anyone will stop him - the Pentagon is run and has been purged by a maniac who has the symbol of the crusaders tattooed on his chest, and openly wants a Holy War. Others spent Easter weekend comparing Trump to Jesus. Remove what’s left of America’s constitutional and legal systems (and they’re trying), and it would quickly be indistinguishable from the Iranian regime.

If we make it out of this, America needs to become as much of a pariah as Russia. I know I’ll never set foot in the place again.
 
The White House has denied considering using nuclear weapons. If they do go ahead with ramping up their assault tonight, I'd presume it would be hitting more of the power and transport infrastructure etc. Maybe make life so rubbish for the Iranians that there is a large uprising from within or that whoever is in power eventually decides to do a deal. Who knows what will happen though. It's a very dangerous situation and there's so much uncertainty. I'll find out when I wake up for work at 4.15am tomorrow, I suppose.
 
The first talk I have heard of "nukes" is on here, despite following the war in detail through the media.
Given Trump’s latest tweet (‘whole civilisation will die tonight’) I think there is a greater than even chance that we wake up tomorrow to see he’s used the nukes.
Do we have any sources for this claim?
A greater than fifty percent chance of nuclear war...the first such action in eighty years?

I do not think so personally at all.

Thank god the Donald doesn't read thoosie forums, it might give him ideas.

Edit...just been searching...no genuine sources for a nuclear threat...just the usual bunch of bloggers and nutters online.

I think people have translated his threat of wiping out a civilisation (of which Iran is 93 million people) would imply the use of nukes, however JD Vance this afternoon dismissed this.

However - Iran does have nuclear power stations. If Trump is hitting all power stations, what happens to the radioactive fall out from these when they are hit? Remember Chernobyl anyone? Radioactive clouds across Europe and the Middle East.

Plus the response from Iran - all the oil and gas in the Middle East will be wiped out for years to come. Nothing will change in Iran, they will still control the straight of Hormuz, they will still even more so pursue a nuclear weapon. Meanwhile there will be a Global recession, food, fuel, medicine shortages, it doesn’t bear thinking about. If anything Trump will send the world back to the stone ages, not Iran.

I’m just really hoping either the 25th Amendment is invoked tonight or the military generals refuse to obey orders and turn on Trump.
