There is no doubt in my mind they will drop a nuke on Iran and we need to have a rapid response plan (hexbear.net)

What that response is, be it mobilizing tens of millions to be out on the streets to stage a revolution or coordinating community defense, I don’t know but we inch closer and close to this scenario.

I’m going to bring this up with my local chapter. There needs to be a global response.

Am I completely out of line here? Am I being hysterical? Probably but I’m so certain of this happening and I feel like the nuclear scare should be at a fever pitch right now.

France is probably the only country more eager to use nukes than the United States. I believe they're the only current UN-official nuclear power with an explicit first-strike doctrine. I also recall an anecdote shared somewhere about a French general or official's disbelief at the extent of the US's nuclear stockpile and nuclear retaliation/escalation planning, with the reason given being "it doesn't take that many to remove Moscow from the map".

during the cold war their doctrine was also to saturate west germany with a heap of nukes to prevent a breakthrough in the Fulda Gap. (LMAO)
