Why haven't we nuked Iraq yet?

THIS IS WHYS WRONG WITH AMERICAN PIG IMPERIALISTIC CAPITALS WITH YOUR BIG FANCY GAS CARS AND BULIDINGS AND JOBS FOR MONEY

VIVA LA FRANCEE

By nuking these areas, we would contaminate the entire area and turn it into a hot zone. The fallout would most likely descend on Iran causing Iran to launch either atomic or nuclear attacks on us in the area or on the mainland.

That could be the dumbest thing we could do.

It will kill a bunch of innocent civilians. Radiation will cause ecological disaster in all Middle East. It will result in rapid decline of oil production, and you will pay 30 bucks per gallon! Still wanna throw nukes around? Probably not. So you better shut the hell up!

Let me guess... you're probably one of the people who also believe tht if we don't win in Iraq that America will suddenly start getting attacked by Alqaeda as well right?

I'm not going to waste too much time on this so I'll keep it as simple as possible. If we drop a nuke on Iraq, The radioactive fall out from the nuke will spread to neighboring countries, including our allies. This will crash the U.S. economy and radiation poisoning will also likely spread into China. Killing thousands of Chinese, which, will likely cause China to retaliate with their own nuclear strike on us. So like the Bush policy, you can't see the forest for the trees. Where as you will have saved the lives of a thousand or so U.S. troops in Iraq you will ultimately kill millions of people including Americans. ;-)

Geesh!

Why we not nuke, EASY we are the GOOD guys here. Only bad guys do stupid thing like that

Nukes are not an option. To think of using them is insanity.

Because...
1. what if we don't get ALL of our boys out?
2. we will be killing millions of innocent people
3. If we nuke chances are they (or thier allies) will nuke us back
It's not worth it because no matter what people that have nothing to do with this will die for no reason other than we were "sick of waiting"

Iraq is not the enemy. remember, we went there to destroy Saddam's WMD (no, that was revised), to fight terrorism (no that's not it either) to depose Saddam and liberate the Iraqi people (I think that's the latest propaganda). Although I like your thinking, when the lines get too blurred to understand what the heck the original agenda was just blow the crap out of it. We could use the same logic for New Orleans.

I wonder if the radiation would effect the oil.

But seriously, dumb idea. No one wants to use nukes...okay let me rephrase, no stable country wants to use nukes. If the United States were to just go drop a nuke on Iraq, the rest of the NATO counties would be livid. Way too many innocent civilians would be killed. I'm not all caught up on American History, but didn't the last nuke you guys dropped cause a huge uproar?

The spread of radiation would effect the rest of the middle eastern countries, too...do we really want to give countries like Iran more incentive to build and use nukes? Not to mention, I'm sure there are several countries with a nuclear program waiting for the perfect reason to launch a few.

Besides, too many people are making money off of the war being done the way it is.

are you a moron? Never mind your question answered that question.....

If we nuke Iraq we would kill thousands of civilians and thay cost a lot of money to build. it's not like the Iraqis can aime they're firearms.

I wonder why we are still there. We are no longer fighting to free those mindless dorks of a government that stopped them from killing each other. We don't need to drop a bomb, they are so stupid we should just pull back and watch as they kill each other. At that point we install Saddam's nephew as president and the nation will be peaceful again.

Nuclear bombs spread radiation globally. Isn't the cancer rate high enough?

Assault
