No it isn’t. Imagine if a foreign power irradiated half the Midwest with an attack on America, how would their embassies and consulates fare? The idea that the US can just ride through the blowback caused by such an incident without disastrous consequences is unbelievably naive.

Half the middle east. pshaw! And I’d more think our ruthlessness would cut back in such incidents. They would, but greater still would be their fear.
