- danbruc 10y agoAlso when I searched for the Russian clip, most results where about using a nuke to end the Deepwater Horizon desaster, for example here.

- phkahler 10y agoI once commented that a tactical nuke might be a solution to the Fukushima disaster. Just place it correctly and blow the entire mess into the ocean and let it sink.
