Apparently, these knuckleheads need to learn a little basic geography. If the US were to use nuclear weapons in the region, we'd probably be at war with the Israelis over it.

The fallout from nuclear weapons would probably end up getting dumped on just about every country in the region, friend and foe alike. The US has states larger than that region. You can't break wind in Damascus without people in Beriut and Tel Aviv smelling it.
