As you might imagine, the Iron Dome could not protect Israel from a nuclear missile, because it would detonate the missile and spread the radiation over the country.
I think you are mistaken about Israeli air defense weapons setting off an incoming nuclear weapon, listener. And given the truly disproportionate number of deliverable nuclear weapons Israel has (estimated long ago to be in excess of two hundred), no one is going to send one their way. Israel might again use conventional weapons on Iranian uranium purification facilities, but those are well protected. The computer viruses Israel got into the Iranian centrifuges controls were more destructive than any conventional bomb Israel could drop. ------Alan
Fresno voter: Our three cats and one small dog have decided to vote for Kamala Harris [Click] “In debate, Trump [rants], cites conspiracy theories as Harris pushes back, touts her vision for future” (fresnobee.com, Sept. 10) After watching the presidential debate last night and listening to the guy who used to have the nuclear codes talk about Haitian immigrants eating our cats and dogs, two things occurred to me: First, I couldn’t stop laughing. And second, our three cats and one small dog who were all previously on the fence about who to vote for all immediately decided to vote for Kamala Harris.” ——Alan

I don't know how to link to it, but I was just now looking through a thesis about inflation in the Soviet Union. Toward the end of the Soviet Union, and coincident with the Soviet-Afghan War, inflation became uncontrollable--- or at least the Russian/Soviet government didn't know how to control it. And here it is again--- the Ukraine war is destroying the Russian economy, with inflation as well as production becoming ever worse. -----Alan
