"There is a possibility of nuclear weapons being employed"

In a Counterpunch article by William S. Lind; Director for the Center for Cultural Conservatism for the Free Congress Foundation it is suggested that an attack on Iran is envisaged before Xmas:

"An attack on Iran will not be an invasion with ground troops. We don't have enough of those left to invade Ruritania. It will be a "package" of air and missile strikes, by U.S. forces or Israel. If Israel does it, there is a possibility of nuclear weapons being employed. But Israel would prefer the U.S. to do the dirty work, and what Israel wants, Israel usually gets, at least in Washington".
