Does anyone remember duck and cover?

Mr. President
Several generals will probably make life-altering career decisions based on the results of the detonation of the largest non-nuclear open-air chemical blast ever made. I guess you could call it a "daisy cutter" on steroids designed to penetrate underground bunkers 75' below the surface.
The Pentagon's planned detonation of a 700 ton explosive open-air chemical blast is probably the military's last opportunity to table Rummy's plan of using nuclear weapons in Iran. The rumor is that several generals will resign if nuclear weapons remain as a real option in Iran.
The original press release from the Pentagon stated that the test, code named "Divine Snake" will happen on June 2 about 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas.
I don't know whether I hope the test proves "Divine Snake" to be successful or not. Either way if we use them in Iran we will unleash the wrath of a billion Muslims.
Since Hiroshima and Nagasaki the idea of using nukes as a first strike weapon is unthinkable, something only a madman would consider and yet you and your cabinet believe that you alone can use these weapons because you have the opportunity and the guts to unseat the Iranian president.
Using nukes in Iran seems like a natural extension of the logic you used when you ordered a pre-emptive strike against Iraq. So why should we be surprised?
Iran presents some opportunities for Rummy to play with his new toys.
Rummy is itching to use his new "elite secret army" in Iran. This new group consists of highly specialized soldiers with unique technical and intelligence skills such as information operations, psychological operations, counterintelligence, and capable of executing covert activities. This secret army is the Proactive Preemptive Operating Group (P2OG).
No doubt, Rummy has already deployed some of these "eyes on the ground." There is no purview of this secret army by Congress because you say they are part of a military group that prepares the field for potential combat and does not report to the CIA.
I guess you can't help it. Your messianic beliefs drive you to consistently over reach. But, you also underestimate your capability of dealing with the consequences. It's no big secret that you plan on leaving the aftermath for others to clean it all up.
This is what America was like in the 50's. Will you have "duck and cover" drills for schools kids as well?
