With all the evidence turned to powder who would be retaliate against?

The powder is the evidence. The signature of the device can be analyzed and the origin can be determined in hours. At least, the point of construction could be determined.

If nuclear weapons go up for sale the way that MiGs and Blackhawk helicopters are, then where it was built matters a whole lot less than who set it off. That's the real danger of when nuclear arms become so common they're 'just another weapon'.

Point of construction doesn't matter if the country who built it says, "We had a device stolen, we didn't use it against you!". The American people are so stupid sometimes I don't trust them to take such evidence as credible and I especially don't trust leaders such as Bozo the Frickin' clown president, who is even now talking about "talking with" N Korea, to act on such evidence.

I am all for bombing them now and wiping out their capability to make war on anyone.
