19. Horrifying possibility. But please change your thread title to make it clear this is a nuclear strike

by the US and/or Israel that the UN is worried about. The way your title is currently written suggests the UN might strike Iran with nuclear weapons.

If you could change that to

UN planning for a nuclear strike on Iran by US/Israel

it would make it clearer. Thanks!
