@Tfmonkey with you mentioning the Iron Dome being all smoke and mirrors, it made me think of something else. What if that was the case with our nuclear weapons as well?

Not saying it is definitely true, but if it was, then the US is even more screwed as we would not have that as a real deterrent. And it would make countries like Russia even more bold because they of all countries would know that it is smoke and mirrors too.

Just a thought, not sure if there is merit, but it makes me think.
