It is well known that Mossad runs the Pentagon. If a nuke were to be launched, it would most likely be one of ours used against an American city.

nuking an area that big would poison pretty much the rest of the world because you would need to use weapons that yield high levels of radiation to cover that large a space. Hitting a city where everyone is bunched together with a low yield gets more bang for their buck 180k I think it was in Hiroshima with one bomb. Does no good to blow up your enemies if the area is polluted so badly no one can go near it.

They don't care about using the area nuked, because only israel matters to them. That said, they will launch a nuke against a coastal city and simply tell us it came from a sub or ship outside the CONUS.

Using nukes of the level would affect Israel is my point. The radiation and fall out would affect everything.

Yeah. Nuking LA with a low to mid yield would make more sense. It's only about the psycho-shock value more than an actual attack. They already made noise about LA, and Lucky Larry Silverstein took out an insurance policy there ..

I was reading on it and its a myth that radiation would persist for thousands of years. It says life threatening radiation would dissipate in months not years. Says the idea the Earth could become a radioactive ball via nuclear war is a myth and cant happen.

If ALL the nukes launched were Tsar Bombas, maybe, but otherwise I tend to agree that the radiation scare was part of the Cold War propaganda.

The explosions would but like in Threads and the Day After and most fictional writings made it out that there would be global radiation that would kill everything but roaches and Twinkies.
