So Thrawn the sum total of your strategy is to threaten the country with anhilation if they misbehave. Do you really think they will believe it? What are you going to do if they don't believe it and detonate a nuke in say Vancouver Island or Manhatten. Are you going to respond with nuking one city? Two or five? What will you do for the reaction of the rest of the arab, or muslim if you will, world from your response?
Given a society that believes they are the right hand of God and it is their duty to either convert or destroy non believers, do you really think you can threaten them?
Now assuming that your threat premise is nothing but an attempt to be funny, what is your real idea, or do your really have one? Seriously, I want to know what you think.
