Russia's War Against Ukraine

[Sir Slash]

Or...A rouge group like Wagner could sell the nukes on the Black-market for anything they want. The very plot from the original, "Thunderball".

Yeah, I'd meant to mention that the likelihood of using a nuclear weapon in Europe was a lot more likely.  Just got carried away with my "Where's Waldo?" jibe at Tripoli and forgot to include the rest of the world...

I wish you all would stop spreading these unfortunate stereotypes around this fine forum.
 

So you're saying Gus doesn't plot world domination from a dreidel shaped lair and torture victims with a magen while eating challah?

Hamsters and goldfish have been off limits to me for a long time.

FWIW, Here is what "Nuclear War Simulator" says about a 1kT nuclear airburst at 9 meters over Tuscaloosa, AL:

First, the overpressure collapsed all buildings, including reinforced concrete 1 km from the blast center.  Everyone inside that circle died from buildings falling on them. (each of the people in the image were in differnt types of cover, from now cover to the sub-basement of a reinforced concrete building.  Inside of 1 km, it didn't matter.)  .  Of note, the 9 meters was not the optimal height for the detonation.  According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_nuclear_explosions#/media/File:Blastcurves_psi.svg, it was 220 meters..

However, the blast and radiation affects decreased very rapidly outside of 1.6 km. Aside from some light injuries from flying glass, those outside of 1.6 km seemed to have no major effects, including exposed to the projected fallout.  I may have done something wrong with the program, so I may try running it again just to see if I get the same results.

And yet Saban and the Crimson Turds still manage another championship.
