Las Vegas Sands (LVS) CEO Sheldon Adelson may be known for his outspoken and extreme views on a range of issues, including online poker, but when he suggested last year that an atomic bomb could be dropped on Iran's capital city of 8.3 million people, the octogenarian was soon made to pay for his ill-conceived thoughts. Adelson first made his startling comment in October 2013 while attending a panel discussion at the Yeshiva University's Manhattan campus entitled "Will Jews Exist?" When asked how he would consider tackling the Iranian nuclear program stand-off, the casino magnate had these choice words to say: "You pick up your cell phone and you call somewhere in Nebraska and you say, 'OK let it go.' And so there's an atomic weapon, goes over ballistic missiles, the middle of the desert, that doesn't hurt a soul. Maybe a couple of rattlesnakes, and scorpions, or whatever. Then you say, 'See! The next one is in the middle of Tehran. So, we mean business. You want to be wiped out?
