If is a nice human word. A word of potential energy being converted to kinetic energy.

If: Example.

If I were Iran I would hate America.

If I were Iran and hated America and was being attacked by America I would retaliate.

If I were Iran and was being attacked and my leadership was destroyed and my reign of power was almost finished, I would finish America

If I were Iran and developed enriched uranium and America wanted my uranium I would give America my uranium.

If I were Iran I would give the America a bomb of sorts in such places as LA, New York, Washington DC.

If I were Donald Trump or America I would not be happy with enriched uranium going boom.

If, if, if…

then again, i am not Iran nor Trump nor America.

and if I was back in my world i would breathe deeply with a sigh of relief and forget this world entirely.
