Reply #7: That's why the pro bomb people are trying to come up with

"tactical" or "battlefield" or "bunker buster" smaller nukes. They keep neglecting the fact that all will produce fallout and that fallout knows no national borders.

At least they thought about that back in the 50s and 60s. They knew the fallout plume from Pyongyang would affect Seoul and Japan, that the one from Hanoi would poison everything around.

The use of such things should be classified as a war crime. It's like other atrocities like DU, land mines, and defoliants--full of unintended consequences and able to kill for many years later.
