Turns out you can dial your global thermonuclear war to taste (extra crispy, life extinct-y).
Today I learned the United States' #nuclear#war targeting (Major Attack Option 1) was once designed to avoid attacks on the russian government so as to permit negotiations.
Major Attack Option 2 expands to include Russian #government installations, making talking down the conflict less possible.
Likely still like this, #russia needs to stop pretending nukes are toys.
