In remarks attributed to a Time interview, President Donald Trump acknowledged the possibility of Iranian retaliation on American soil. His comments frame a frightening concern: how exposed might ordinary communities be if conflict escalated?

But that is not a promise of protection, nor does it establish that entire states would escape attack. Cities, military facilities and critical infrastructure could also be targeted, while radioactive fallout could threaten communities beyond blast zones.
