The Russian “Topol” warhead (800 Kilotons) would only destroy from Ellizabeth to Hackensack

While Long Island would not be destroyed by a nuke hitting NYC, prevailing west to east winds would cause serious radiation poisoning for most residents of the island—and the entire island (many millions) would have to be evacuated if it was feasible to do so.

Who needs a house out in Hackensack?

In case of a nuclear attack, all New Yorkers please file in an orderly fashion to the nearest subway station where you will be pushed into the path of an oncoming train. Thank you.

Bunch of propaganda. NYC like Detroit is worse off with liberals in charge than a nuke. Just look how Hiroshima looks compared to the dumps now

And they made fun of whats his name with the color code after 911 when he suggested duct tape and plastic on the windows. Good advice.

“please file in an orderly fashion...”

Lol—in the event of a nuclear attack on NYC, one word that will never be used by anyone is “orderly”....I would expect a few new curse words to be invented on the spot, however.

;-)

I have often walked down this street before
but the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before
now as I walk by I see rubble fly
boy it’s rough in New York where you live.

People stop and stare, they don’t bother me
I’ve got lead underwear, I’m safe as I can be
All the air is filled with radioactivity
and it’s worse in New York where you live.

And oh the frightening feeling
as the glow spreads over the land
that exposed to lightening feeling
as the Geiger counter clicks to beat the band.

There are no Yankees, they’ve been all knocked down
and you’ll never hear a horn in any part of town
see the plane draw near, let’s get out of here
New York City is no place where to live.

If NYC gets hit with an atomic bomb, millions, literally, will die instantly. Additional millions, literally, will die over the next few weeks due to radiation poisoning.

It won’t be pretty. Assuming the Empire State Building is ground zero and the bomb is on target, the entire Island of Manhattan will be unlivable for years.

However, the bombers will probably resort to an electromagnetic pulse or EMP rather than an atomic weapon. More people will live but will slowly starve to death. Drinkable water will be scarce. Electricity will be unavailable. In a way, the EMP will probably cause more misery than an atomic weapon.

Love the tagline. Your city gets nuked and you say β€œI got this.” Yeah.

Probably. But it will all be worth it for the cause of Ukraine.
