OK, the results of the simulated attack are probably classified, but you'd think something positive (and public) might come out of this. So far this article says somebody ran a simulated nuclear attack and (of course) a lot of simulated people would die. Well duh. This scenario can be played anywhere the U.S. (indeed any country) deems a threat. What is the point if you don't learn from it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C48:7006:200:D84D:5A80:173:901D ( talk) 03:32, 2 March 2018 (UTC) reply
