It just goes to show you how incredibly GULLIBLE conservatives are: they believe an entire nation of people are all homicidal maniacs with an irrational hatred of the USA and Israel, and they all, every one, would want nothing more in life than to have their entire country vaporized in retaliation for a single nuke launched at Israel.

Think about how utterly idiotic that notion sounds.

Yet they believe it.
