15. What did you expect?
Nuclear bombs make a nice message, they grab all the WMD headlines given their ostentacious nature. But other than their threat, they are useless. You nuke a country, and everything inside that country is useless to you, including resources.

Now this bomb has possibilities. For instance, you could engineer it so that it only attacks a small, but sizable portion of a foreign populace. You could then move in under humanitarian auspices and "take control". You could pillage the world of anything you want, and people would thank you for it.

If they never get the impression that you released the new "killer bug".



Think about this, if a sane person like myself can think up a scenario like that, imagine what the monsters who first thought up this bomb could think of.
