Today's Poll Question: Now a month in to war, is Iran more or less likely to use a nuke?

from The Smerconish Podcast · host Michael Smerconish

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: After a month of watching this war, based on Iran's actions, do you now believe they'd be more or less likely to use a nuke if they had one? Michael Smerconish examines how recent Iranian missile and drone strikes—targeting both military installations and civilian areas—are shaping public perception of nuclear risk. He also explores a provocative debate: whether a U.S. victory in Iran could have unintended global consequences, and how partisan reactions to war complicate national interests. The result is a sobering conversation about deterrence, escalation, and what recent events reveal about Iran’s potential nuclear posture.
