These guys better learn why these weapons are too potent to ever be used.
Remember Chernobyl?
The fallout from that reactor meltdown was milder than an atomic bomb could produce, and it contaminated crops and wildlife from Norway to deep in Siberia.
These enemies are too near each other and too near too many others to avoid the return of fallout from even a limited and successful attack.
I don't suppose that "Day After " could be shown on the networks that they watch?
