I live in the mountains now, far from the city. I'd be ok. They would most likely bomb major cities bro.

while i feel we are extremely far from nuclear war despite the doom and gloom being ESPOUSED

it wouldn't necessarily be just "major cities". it would be the cities that contribute the most to the war effort, so places like san diego (huge naval base) would be hit before LA for instance.

like most things in war that people are ignorant of, the object isn't to just kill the enemy, but kill the enemies means and will to fight.

it goes back as far as humans have recorded history. im sure that chinamen sun tzu spoke on it, but i can't read that goofy ching chong nonsense, so i will reference great romans/greeks and even persians. you want the enemy to have the option of choosing defeat. in pitched battle, to the average person you think the objective is to kill the enemy, all of them. but in reality you need them to just know you are in position to kill all of them. like chess. you continually put their king in check, they are forced to strategize and maneuver until the possibillity of victory is gone, which is the check mate. you don't need to physically take his king. you just trap him.

in war you do this through various means but the simplest example i can think of from modern times would be the first gulf war. the iraqi army is on the move, the us army moves in slowly at the front, while swiftly bringing up the flanks unbeknownst to the enemy, by the time the front is in position the flanks are as well and the iraqi army is surrounded, with only one means of retreat, back the way they came. they CHOSE defeat, and an enemy that chooses defeat is much more reasonable in peace talks, than the relatives of a vanquished foe. the US could have very easily cut off their path of retreat and slaughtered them to a man, but the point of war isn't to kill the enemy. its to kill their means and will to fight.

in ancient times people like hannibal learned this the hard way. he SOUNDLY defeated the romans at the battle of cannae, and he completely surrounded and wiped out the majority of them including scipio, yet scipios son, (later known as scipio africanus) escaped. long story short hannibals butchery and barbarism emboldened the roman people who held on licked their wounds and later scipio avenged his people and saved the republic defeating hannibal back on african soil

had hannibal simply destroyed romes will and means to fight he could've been victorious, but he never sacked the cities that produced armies, he simply defeated the armies sent against him. killing the enemy doesn't win the war, you must kill their will to war.

im high and none of this is relevant.
