    you would thinking mining would be the go-to move since so much of the western world might join in the fray to protect their financial & military assets.

        speaking of nuclear: i wonder if tel-aviv/washington/london/paris would launch a nuke if iran makes too much progress in neutralizing all of the western assets in the region and if beijing or moscow would step in at that stage.

          Tel Aviv I can’t predict. London and Paris are too sensible. Washington we could probably keep Krasnov from nuking anything (we’ve done good so far. I mean they changed the code from 00000 to 12345 at least, right? Right?) by giving him a red light up button and just letting him watch the end of Dr Strangelove

          I don’t really want to think about that. Tens of millions of people would likely die in the process and World War III may get kicked off.
