Just trying to formulate my own.

(28,270 posts)The airborne fallout will circle the globe. Call off work sick on the days when its overhead in my area and stay indoors.
I think its good to take iodine pills too.

Yes, America's race to the bottom

Also, Canada is not cheap.

(19,240 posts)And attend lots of antiwar rallies that won't accomplish anything.
If Trump/Pence decide to placate the Koch Brothers by starting another war for oil, there is not squat that the American people can do about it, but mourn all the dead Iranians and the dead US service people.
Some things never change.
Behind the Aegis
(53,959 posts)War with Iran would have wide ranging effects, likely involving destroying a "thorn" in the side of some. They will be celebrating the removal of "the wagging dog tail" and won't care about the reality of it.

(54,397 posts)They never intentionally attack someone they think will shoot back (Iraq was a major miscalculation).
Republicans prefer to attack places like Panama and Grenada. Iran would shoot back. Big Time. Besides, now that we will have religious nut cases and a few Jew haters running the place as of January 20, maybe they will see they have more in common with Washington than they ever have.

They sent two warning shots: the first was shutting down a major ME oil driller and wiping 30,000 hard drives. The second was a coordinated attack on three large US banks' online systems. Messed up online business for days.
We supposedly have a bigger cyber worm as a counter-threat, but like nuclear weapons, it's not a trigger we should pull. We are grotesquely unprotected as well. Hence, we negotiate.
