Reply #6: using small tactical nukes against military targets

[Herman Munster]

is always preferable than a full-yield nuclear strike against civilian populations.

Obviously, it would be nice if something can be worked out diplomatically without any of this occurring. But in a zero-sum game, if Iran develops nukes, the government of Israel would be criminally negligent to its citizens not to do something about it.

This would be like if the U.S. had a neighbor like the president of Canada or Mexico had nukes and threatened to wipe it off the map at every turn.

You think any democrat or republican president would tolerate that BS?
