      1. @pinhooves It's someone's hypothetical calculation of how far North Korea's new rocket could carry a 1-tonne nuclear device. (Assuming it doesn't just blow up on the launchpad like all the others)

        1. @ceruleanspark they have some sort of strategic value? why else would you nuke anything?

          1. @jojoax Aside from Washington and Anchorage, I can't see how hitting any of those other targets would achieve anything beyond having the US nuke your country into glass.

            1. @ceruleanspark well, all those places are pretty important, like Guam has an air force base there, um Hawaii has a pretty big economical footprint, um bleh too lazy to research what else the other places are. it could just be to strike fear into our hearts or something like that

            2. @ceruleanspark fear can be a pretty good weapon.

        2. @ceruleanspark Oh god that worries me a bit. I'm pretty close to Seattle. I don't want to be affected by that. D:

    2. @ceruleanspark I assume it's just "Because you can" If I were to start a nuclear war, I would just obliterate as much territory as I could, just to make the rest of the world fear too much to retaliate.
