just a couple of nuclear detonations!
Tell me your mentally removed without saying the words
Tell me you have no idea about nuclear bombs, not the radiation, not the capabilities, nothing, without saying those words
Tell me you’re the dumbest fuck in class without saying the words
Somebody ate too much Lead
So Newt is calling for nuclear bombs to be detonated in Israel?
I was gonna say. This idea has been floating around for decades.
Bottom line: Yes it will work. It will also involve transporting nuclear warheads to another country, which probably violates all kinds of treaties and will set governments everywhere into a panic of epic proportions. The knock-on effects of nuclear contamination will be a problem for the local population, local water table, and local ocean currents. You can bet your bottom-dollar that these, and possibly more, problems will be shouldered solely by the soon-to-be-god-forsaken masses of whatever country eventually okays this idea.
Technically, this would be nuking the UAE and Yemen
It’s satire. Gingrich didn’t even write the OG article…
As funny as I find that article to be. The problem is that satire is reality most of the time these days. Even an idea as obviously dumb as this could actually be coming out of the white house.
Tell Newt to Google Nuclear winter.
Tell him to gobble broken glass.
Safe? Lol
Oh god they are trying to do Plowshare 2.0.
I thought this motherfucker was dead.
I mean it’s such a braindead take that he might as well be
It’s gotta be lead… Right? Right?!
Absolutely has to be lead poisoning. We need to get these insane fuckers tested for it and have them committed if it shows in their system. That may be exactly what is needed and how to “peacefully” get these weird fuckers to retire.
Don’t worry, they want/plan to put lead back into fuel so it affects an entire new generation
Nah. They can’t, they would get automatic lawsuits. Leaded gas is not only banned in the US, but globally. It has one exception right now and that is usage in piston engine aircraft. Even classic cars and classic tractors have to convert.
And when is some international or domestic law stopped them?
It happens all the time. If you make an engine that runs on leaded gas you will get fined. They are banned. Even classic cars must be converted. The only exception are old piston engine airplanes … and those get banned in 2030.
What a goddamned fucking idiot.
How much you wanna bet he called Trump and personally made this fucking deranged suggestion to him?
Is newt Gingrich even still alive
Edit: holy shit he actually tweeted that. It was so outlandish I just assumed it was fake.
“Yes, we’re irradiated now, but gas is under $3/gal.”
The
geiger counterDow will be over 50,000!Well it would be Dubai and the Saudis that would be irradiated. They should be fine with it right?
That would guarantee a bright future for Dubai
the gas would likely be irradiated too. I heard of an early proposal to detonate nukes deep underground in the tar sands to bring the oil to the top, theoretically it would work but radioactive oil.
The Americans actually tried that with some gas reserves, and as expected nuclear fracking increased yields, but radioactive gas.
So they’re the only country who has nukes themselves for economic reasons…
Not irradiated! It’s been treated with Shell Atomic Boost!
Just look for the glowing pump.
This is the talent McDonald’s marketing needs.
You mean my cars get free nuke juice? Why aren’t we doing this again?
fuck them saudis and their sportswashing
Less than that. They’d have to sell this particular gas at a discount, considering it would be radioactive after making this detour.
You’re forgetting the power of marketing. Call it “Atomic Premium”, claim it’s formulated specifically for giant trucks with fake balls attached to the hitch, get a few hick-hop artists to name drop it in songs about cruising down red dirt roads, and run a meme campaign implying only woke blue-haired lib trannies with nose rings oppose irradiated gas. They’d drink it if they thought doing so would “own the libs”.
The transported good would not be radioactive after the journey, though I can’t say the same for the vessel
Nah, both carbon and hydrogen can absorb neutrons just fine,
Well, not Americans, but brown people halfway across the world would be. But they’re not people to Americans so who cares.
How bad would the radiation actually be?
How bad can it possibly be? It’s only being held apart by a screwdriver
