This will not be a smart move. We cannot fight a land war in Iran. I think it will be nearly impossible to win without bombing the shit out of everyone and everything. Iran has the most trained fighters in the world. Even more then China. This will not fly well...

Surely you are thinking of the distinction between plain old fissile bombs and the mighty thermonuclear weapons which followed.
Personally I find them to be equally frightening but I can take some solace in the fact that a nuclear weapon will more likely be used in a strategic fashion.

If China or Russia woke up one morning and decided to take out our communication, and GPS satellites, we would be completely shut down in our capacity to wage any sort of "conventional" war in about 5 minutes.
All we'd have left is the nukes, and our bibles.

That goes both ways of course.
The truth is neither USA, China or Russia could successfully invade any of each other. The best any one could do, even without nukes, is just kill as many of the enemy as possible, and of course face equal retaliation. This is not in any of the big three's current best interests at all. The notion that taking out any ones satellites leaves the homeland wide open is ridiculous. editQuote:

The objective of either China or Russia would not be to invade our homeland, after all, we have the nukes.
It would be to halt our reign of terror in the world. Then there would still be mutually assured destruction because of the nukes, and we would have to just accept it and live peacefully with our surroundings.
And on our current course, Russia or China might consider it worth a shot. Remember when Bush couldn't open the Chinese door?

Maybe, just maybe they were sending a message.

You do realize that they have communication satellites and nukes too, dont you? Its a multi directional struggle, not them trying to liberate the world from us.
edit- why am i even responding to this insanity? OP posts about US bombing Iran, and the topic goes to China and Russia taking out US satellites?
About Iran, I dont think we will do it. My opinion, I could go either way.

They knock out our capacity for our god-like advanced technologically enhanced ability to fight war "conventionally", against other countries whose conventional weaponry and defense systems do not compare nor stand a chance, the whole world wins.
We go back to "You leave me alone and I'll leave you alone", (Al Queda's idea, and used to be our idea), instead of our brand new "We'll kill you before you might kill us" ideology of paranoia and world domination (Bush/Illuminatti) idea.
Neither China nor Russia will allow Bush to finish his plan, unless the plan exists worldwide for the world to end.

Well? We push a few buttons, send out some GPS coordinates, and in 2 minutes thousands of 1LB Depleted Uranium "bullets" are shredding tanks like rice paper.
Not god-like?

No, not god-like. And they (Russia, China, among others) have similar capabilities. Dont even need the satellites.

By the way, my bet is that we use those Depleted Uranium shells on the Iran facilities. It's environmentally friendly, because radiation is present there anyhow.
And we've finally figured out what to do with the waste products of our own nuclear facilities! We'll just spread it all around on the ground, but on the other side of the globe! It's a win-win!

But they use theirs wisely. (Not at all) And are you kidding me? We don't need the satellites?
That's like saying you can walk into a Safeway to buy a cart full of stuff, and convince a cashier to look up each item's price, and then ring up each item's price by hand on the register, and not use the bar codes.
Our fighting machine has been similarly automated. Remove the satellites and our war systems will be chalk to the brim with errors and useless.

if we drop a single bomb on iran, all hell is going to break loose. i give it less than 6 months after we attack them, that we will be at war with russia, china and north korea as well..... at the very least. what the hell do we have? britain and canada.

nuking iran could stop ww3 too,its just another point of view
maybe im right or maybe im wrong but i aint gonna argue with you no more i done it for too long na na na na na na na na

Russia is Iran's ally. Russia recently installed Russian anti aircraft gunnery for Iran in Iran.
We bomb Iran, we are basically attacking Russia.

you really think it would be easy to take out thousands of orbiting satellites so quickly that we wouldn't have time to retaliate?
