Is it moraly justafiable to launch a nuclear retaliation against an enemy after one has been launched against you? You are going to be destroyed no matter what so is it right to take out another country with you, even though the gross majority of the people in said country had nothing to do with the attack? |

You need to make sure that the survivors in your country will not be invaded and killed/captured etc. by the enemy country, so you blow the sh*t out of it. Thats the only reason I can think of at the moment. |

I say go for the spots that would cripple those responsible. aka all military bases, and whoever runs the country. Keep the civilian casualties to a minimum, but if they do it once then what will stop them next time? |

Not much in the way of Ethics-just the very real and risky threat that if you attack first and do NOT take out the enemies ability to retaliate you will be met with equal or greater force possibly resulting in the destruction of your ability to wage war wich pretty much means that any nuclear conflict will be swift and probably ruin both sides ability to fight a war and win it That is basicly M.A.D. for ya |

Basically, if I'm going down, screw 'em. I'm gonna take out as many spectators, innocent bystanders and gawkers as I can, in a burning blaze of glory. |
