As you and I have discussed before, my main concern with the use of nukes is the fallout. Now, if you look you'll see that most of it will be contained to a fairly small region in the Eastern Med. While it would suck for Southern Turkey, Libya, Egypt, Jordan, and Syria I am OK with that.

Acceptable losses.
I have no interest in visiting any of those mud slime countries anyway!

I guess it's possible that some of the fallout could make it across northern Saudi Arabia (no loss) into Iran and Iraq (no loss) but it would be unlikely that it would make it as far north as the Black Sea, so we're all good.
