I did not realize that "glass the entire country" means to use nuclear weapons. Maybe I don't watch enough movies. I'm all for attacking Iranian military assets across Iran, but obviously not the civilians if that can be avoided.

I'm not sure how anyone can take that assertion in good faith. It's like saying that you want to bomb a country back to the stone age and then saying that you didn't realize that it meant attacking civilian infrastructure.
