    • @hedgehog3180
      @hedgehog3180 3 года назад +164

      Well actually that's not the case, while small nukes like the ones dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki leave behind considerable radiation large nukes like the ones the US mostly has these days are so powerful that they blow all of the radioactive material into the stratosphere where the jet stream quickly disperses it. This means that these nukes barely leave any radiation behind and while they do spread a lot of radiation during the detonation the area that gets heavily irradiated is within the explosion itself and as such also gets completely blown to dust and bathed in fire. So basically the TL;DR is that the nukes the US would actually use act mostly like really big bombs.

    If anyone is scared of a zombie apocalypse, do not fear. Movement requires energy. Energy doesn't come from nowhere, so zombies required food and a functioning metabolism to stay alive. Zombies aren't good at staying alive, so even if zombies become real, they will never walk around for very long. Stay inside for a little while and you'll be fine. Just be a bit cautious with the amount of food you eat and tap some water so you don't have to worry about that for a week or two.

The cured remembers everything that they did while infected, they just couldn't stop it. Goes into a lot, like the people protesting the cured coming back to society, the cured planning to fight back against the government for not trusting any of them, etc. Its a pretty good movie.

Like just clean the streets with armoured vehicles, a single armoured unit could clean out an entire city, then soldiers would need to do the hard part and clean the buildings. Planes and boats are completely overkill, no need to destroy entire cities just to defeat an enemy that has no weapons, no speed, no intelligence and no real way to fight back against a modern army.

      The likely answer is the fact that there's a massive risk in deploying ground troops. Any boots on the ground soldier who is in contact with zombies risks the threat of becoming zombies themselves. So it's less risky and more efficient to use tactics that minimize such a possibility.

Even the crappy Humvees with a .50 cal are more than enough to clear the streets and countryside. Once that's done, you clear the buildings. Indoor fighting is the only dangerous part and even then, you could just smoke them out with tear gas, white phosphorus, mustard gas, whatever you want and let armored vehicles shoot what comes out.
