Threatening obliteration in exchange for any attack borders on Strangelovian lunacy. If one Iranian happens to fly off the handle and attack say an airforce base in the southern Israel, which is known to harbor Nuclear missiles which Israel is aiming at Iran, Mrs. President will kill 40 million Iranians, not known to be involved in the attacks?

Thinking strategically, from Israel's point of view a fakes attack on its own base could lead to the elimination of their biggest enemy without the loss of very many, if any Israeli lives. Heck they could have nukes on their own bases set to go off when any Iranian missile, large enough to carry a nuke, hits any of their bases.

The President of the US simply cannot make promises about such things that are so far outside America's control.

This is the woman who went apeshit when Obama calmly suggested that if we had highly reliable intelligence of highly dangerous Al Qaeda leaders in Iraq we should should take them out.

Now this woman wants to promise world war three over any attack on Israel when Israel has the missiles and Nukes to launch a counter attack of their own.

I am all for the US using its might to keep countries from being bullied, if and when that is the case. But I do not want a president who paints us into a corner by rashly trying to look tough. Eight years of that was enough.
