Hey, the bigger ones have a thirty mile immediate kill radius. That's enough for me.

Youre the punk, i'll wager that you are the product of the government school system within the last 40 years. Nothing but a head filled with outright lies.

Agreed!

To put it in perspective: That's about 4-10X (I've seen various figuress...) of the explosive power of one of the WTC jets.

Oh, it would be nasty, all right-- assuming the thing detonated at full yield as-designed, and lack of maintenance and rebuilding makes that somewhat iffy. No argument, really: I would not welcome one of these in my neighborhood. But, from what I've read (and no, I have not witnessed that much TNT going off and hope never to), these are on a par with the WTC event; maybe somewhat worse, if their yield has not declined over time. One way or another, a suitcase nuke does portend a regional cataclysm over vast areas, as an ICBM-borne city-buster warhead would. They are more surgical.
