Great Depression of 2016

Well Dennis, A nuclear weapon laid on Tel Aviv would also take out Jerusalem and Ramallah.

Amman, Jordan is only 70 miles from Tel Aviv; Gaza is 40 miles. Damascus and Beirut are each about 135 miles away. However, you are welcome to stand as close to that detonation as you wish.

Good luck with that.

Sorry but even a 500 KT bomb wouldn't even reach the 70 miles !

The Iranians don't have the capacity to build a 500 KT bomb or the means to deliver it.

I would not want to be anywhere around but it would not take them out... The biggest bomb ever built could get them with thermal burns but the biggest ever tested would not an I assume anything that is used would be smaller than that.

Well, that computation mentioned by Dennis was for a ten kiloton device. That would be the estimated equivalent to ten thousand tons of TNT.
The Tsar Bomba was 50 megatons, or the equivalent to fifty million tons of TNT. Both are bad news, but the latter is a lot worse.

Not that much more uranium or plutonium are required for the bigger bomb. That would be a fission bomb that compresses a core of other material to produce a fusion bomb. This can be set up in stages. It can get bigger and bigger depending upon the number of stages.

The Tsar Bomba is thought to have been a three stage device.

Now you can't tell the difference between 10 and 500 ???

Dennis, the link to "The China Daily" article was provided for your reading pleasure. Nothing in China gets into print with out the party's imprimatur.

So, it is worth reading and taking note.

Well you are free to believe every word printed in the Chinese paper. Most people will go with truth, commonsense, and logic. But you go ahead an parrot everything you read on all the crack-pot sites.

Crack pot sites? Be nice, we are all a chicken family here.

Now, I am wondering just whom can we trust? http://www.infowars.com/cnn-turns-mixed-race-oregon-shooter-into-a-white-man/

When they took so long releasing the name and information of the killer, I began to wonder why? Now we know.

This doesn't look good. http://www.usatoday.com/story/money...fiat-chrysler-negotiations-contract/73452890/

Now, I am wondering just where Fiat will move the production of these vehicles. The Pacific trade agreement comes at a good time for Fiat.

The UAW seems to have a suicidal death wish. Forgive them, for they know not what they do.
