Whereas America would not drop an atomic bomb in Georgia, it was sure ready and may have planned a nuclear attack on Iran. Adm Fallon was quite blunt about saying he stopped an attack on Iran that coincided with a sudden concentration of aircraft carriers in the Gulf. That bunker busting nuclear bomb demanded by the George Jr administration back in 2003 was probably ready for deployment. To those who see war as the only solution - who would go to war without a strategic objective - Iran would have been a perfect testing ground for their new bomb.

A nuclear bomb would have made a statement of America's will - or how America views and must save the world.
