Meh... the whole idea is to remind them they are pointed at them, which you seem perfectly okay with. Its a deterrent action, as apparently just pointing is failing to work anymore. I understand the implications and personally believe its a way of avoiding war. In a simplistic way of describing it."Let's act like unhinged lunatics because i want to win a dick measuring contest"
>be russian/Chinese general
>nuke pops off just off the coast
>oh my, the americans are crazy, their stealth bombers could be on the way to moscow/beijing
>we hereby agree we're under attack and this was a dud/mistake in targeting
>thereby, send one of ours, target city X
Or
>we can hereby infer we're under attack by a nuclear power with the capabilities to do a decapitation strike. We need to counter while we still can.
>Launch everything we have, glass them
You're deranged. We have our nukes already targeting them, thereby threatening them. That's the whole idea of MAD.
You're suggesting an unprovoked first strike because "my pp is bigger than yours" we can get away with that with norks or iran because they can't retaliate. Chang and Ivan on the other hand have enough missiles to glass the entire country twice over.
We also would lose what little moral superiority we have left. The reason we don't want norks or Iran to get nukes is because we preach that they'll be in the hand of unhinged lunatics that'll use them unprovoked. Your idea to prevent that is to act like unhinged lunatics and try to bully/threaten another country with nuclear holocaust because we can.
If we do that, just to norks or iran, in weeks the russians and chinese will speed their programs and ensure they have working nukes and delivery systems. Nuclear proliferation goes insane because every country now thinks americans are insane and will nuke you if you don't obey them empire style
