    yes extreme radiation is by it's nature not a proble for that long as the intense stuff has short halflives but in that week it could fuck up the environment real bad. Also it's a missile that you've sent off that moves really quickly precision control of the precise moment of detonation is not achievable. Nuclear war is a super bad idea

    Frankly prolongued industrial action by truckers could bring america and a lot of other western countries to their knees.

      I don't disagree with most of your post, but this:

      Also it’s a missile that you’ve sent off that moves really quickly precision control of the precise moment of detonation is not achievable

      is objectively wrong. We've had the ability to detonate warheads at extremely precise altitudes/timings for basically as long as we've had nukes; even the ones dropped on Japan were detonated as airbursts. Altimeters are pretty basic pieces of equipment with high precision.

        And the altimeter is an essential component of any computer rocket guidance system ever made.

        Anti-aircraft shells also use one for longer than nuclear weapons and more precise.

      Now if only the truckers weren't stupid clowns who protest vaccines and masks

        that protest started being about being forced to quarantine for 2 weeks everytime they crossed the border which meant they lost money every trip it just got carried away with stupid culture war crap
