Yup, Iowa, It's Cold

                I do not really know about you guys, but I, for one, have always been afraid of being nuked just randomly. Not talking about all the nuking jokes that people have made about North Korea, or whether North Korea actually can nuke people, but like the nukes built during the Cold War that are meant for intimidation and to increase power. Of course, ever since I have ever lived, I think I have been overestimating the power of these nukes, because, call me ignorant or something, but I always thought that Iowa would be taken out with one nuke. In reality, the biggest nuclear bomb, the Tsar Bomb designed by the USSR, would only take out about a third of Iowa, shown here.

                I know this post is kind of morbid, but honestly, I would rather be caught in the initial explosion of the nuclear detonation rather than the radiation effects of the bomb. This is because the explosion would be a faster death, compared to the radiation where it would have many painful adverse effects on the body, like mutations. These mutations would be painful and it is very difficult to survive from this, not saying that there have not been people, but cancer would be extremely painful and due to the fact there is no consistent cure for it yet, the chances are higher for a painful death.

                This leads me to thinking about how much people would be out for blood if another country would nuke the United States first without a good reason. Of course, no country would be stupid enough to start a nuclear war, because it would lead to a giant regression of mankind. Like Albert Einstein once said, “I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought with, but I know World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones,” This has pretty large implications, because it is saying that it will pretty much destroy all of humanity and we have to start all over again. This shows something about humanity, because we have not completely lost faith in humans, like many people say all over the internet, since we are smart enough to realize that nuking people that we do not like is not the solution to everything, heck, it really is hardly even a solution at all. The more warfare advances, the more paranoid people will get, and the more gruesome the retaliations are.
