@etchedpixels @cstross The worst case I've seen suggested is Iran setting off a dirty bomb in an important population centre (do they have any plutonium?), thus rendering it uninhabitable for centuries. Somewhere like Manhattan or the City would be awful

@rpluim @etchedpixels @cstross Does it matter if they have plutonium? Do they have Shaheeds? Yes Is Russia willing to pay for them? Yes What is the Shaheed to plutonium exchange rate on the black market?

@rpluim @etchedpixels @cstross The worst case is that he hasn't destroyed Iran's nuclear program and in their desperation they somehow manage to cobble together an NK level nuke. And they would instantly use it.
