The gold bomb is a cobalt bomb on steroids. It works the same way, an element by neutron capture gets converted to a radioactive isotope of that element.

Why a gold tamper instead of a cobalt one?

Gold-198 is 713x more radioactive than Cobalt-60 which means that in the first few hours and days after the blast, the fallout region is absolutely gushing with radiation, resulting in greatly increased immediate casualties while in a fairly short term, the fallout is no more radioactive than regular fallout.

Suppose you had to strike an enemy with a dagger, and to assure positive function, you decide to poison the dagger. Would you poison it with a super rapid poison that drops the enemy at a slight nick, or would you smear the blade with shi so that he'd die weeks later?

In almost all cases, the tactical advantage is in dropping the opponent fast, which is why nerve gas is superior to mustard gas and radiogold to radiocobalt.

I dunno man, taking care of injured people takes up a lot more resources than burying bodies.

I guess one failed revolution that leads to the death of some 20-60 million people leaves a bad taste in ones mouth... much like China. That lingering horror keeps people more docile even when their current regime is getting beyond unsuitable.

Are you referencing what I said in the other thread by saying that?

The Cultural Revolution in China was a failure?

MSM isn't gonna show any grisly footage, you gotta look at whatever the equivalent of liveleak is these days.

Live leak closed down because we can't show anything that promotes shootings or gun use glorifies war or desensitizes folks to violence that's bad for society so now we have to pay censors and Google to scrub the whole internet to protect people from ourselves. I'm sorry last time I checked thats called censorship and a violation of the first amendment our fundamental right to free speech free press and to freely communicate vital information! How are we supposed to know there's a real war going on when we never see anyone shooting or die. It's all a fake scam until they show people shooting and dying.

I donno why anyone would want to see that tbh

If you know it's happening you know

and if you've seen death in its myriad of forms - well you've seen it.

Twitter isn’t censoring graphic content from Ukraine. There’s some seriously gnarly videos and pics.
