If you really think "Cover it in concrete" made everything better in Chernobyl, you know nothing about nuclear science, or the history of the disaster. One, the sarcophagus was constructed MONTHS after the disaster had already released most of it's radioactive contents into the environment. Two, That alone did almost nothing to prevent the cancer deaths that occurred because of the radioactive contamination. Three, the sarcophagus was designed to prevent workers who STILL work at the Chernobyl site today, to avoid being exposed to the worst of the radiation from the still highly radioactive materials at the site exposed to the air. The contamination to the environment had already been done, this sarcophagus was a bandaid applied to a sword wound.

this is my last response to your posts as this takes us off topic,but simply the russians incased theirs in concrete negating the effects,,japan however has done squat really,and even have contaminated the ocean,
i know far more about nuclear reactions and there effects then you clearly do.
No-one got nuked. There hasn't been a single case of Acute Radiation Syndrome as a result of this explosion. Not one. There is no type of nuclear detonation that doesn't result in ARS for at least SOME of the survivors.

really was that called for??????
clearly this is a unknown weapon of some kind,and im still hoping no-one got nuked.

They're not EMP weapons, they're HPM weapons, and they're designed to destroy electronics not blow up large areas.

There needs to be several pieces of evidence in order to draw the "nuke" conclusion. the white flecks seen on films from nuclear detonations and the chernobyl disaster is a result of high-energy particles striking the film (or CCD/CMOS in digital cameras), not the result of an EMP.
Yes, there are white flecks seen on the films in Yemen. But that alone is not enough evidence for a nuclear detonation. White flecks There are several other factors that need to be determined as well, such as "Is there fallout?" So far, the answer is no. "Are there victims or radiation poisoning?" So far, the answer is no. Things aren't adding up.
