    Unfortunately, the US has a launch on warning policy.

    So even if every warhead Russia has is a dud, or doesn’t even re-enter the atmosphere, they’ll still be nuked into a fine mist of concrete and carbonized human dust about 20 minutes after we realize their bombs don’t work.

    And then the rest of us get to live through nuclear winter.
