I've never seen the movie, but yes Nuclear warfare is a gruesome task and I hope whoever made the nuclear weapon (I think he's passed on) feels bad.

But any warfare is gross.
Now, I have discovered a rule, that if followed by everyone, can mean world peace and opinions (said by Christ the Messiah):
Love your enemy.

If only humans followed that rule...

That would be the Manhattan Project team.  Oppenheimer specifically was the most pronounced of the team.  He's dead, but I'm sure some of them are alive.

Anyways, I'm glad we're the only ones to have used it, and even then only once (well, twice, but in one war).

Spoiler alert


yeah. It's based on the novel by Tom Clancy, which Icode would know about Jack Ryan.    But even that nuke in the movie was an old Israeli bomb, from around the 70s. The whole point of the bomb (not the original, it was sold on the black market) was to get the US and Russia to destroy each other, and it almost worked.

He does. Robert Oppenheimer said "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." after the first test at Alamogordo.

[offtopic]I do follow that "rule", but you can't just sit by and let those who don't believe it take us apart. I don't think Christ appreciates that either.
