Do you think that a de-orbital surprise attack with a small

Stop talking nonsense. What such an attack would do is get the entire
country of the attacker vaporized.

I wasn't suggesting that anybody do that, the question was
directed to Stuffie because I wanted to see what his response
would be.


So why 'cobalt bomb'? Insofar as short term (a few years) effects go,
THERE IS NO BLOODY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 'COBALT' BOMB AND ANY OTHER
NUKE OF SIMILAR YIELD.
