It’s near impossible to explain to some that 50k dead is equivalent to nuking a place. See, everyone is like “well it’s not like we’re nuking the place” … well actually, that’s … actually what it is.

Hiroshima was 80k dead? How do you achieve a Hiroshima without the blowback of using a Nuke? Heh. You can get the same causality count minus the Nuke fan-fare, IDF lunch special (a bomb sandwich).
