That's how it kills people, which is the point of a nuclear weapon. Nuclear weapons aren't supposed to be all safe and harmless and not have any long term effects. When a nuclear bomb explodes, it is the result of the nucleus of an atom splitting due to nuclear fission, which generates gamma Rays, which are supposed to cause radiation and kill people as well as cause radiation on the land. There is no such thing as a nuclear bomb which can't generate radiation, as a nuclear bomb that can't generate radiation hasn't exploded, and has failed. my "rods from god" have the explosive (as in bomb, not nuke) power of an icbm, not the radiation part, which yes, means that there isn't radiation to kill people radioactively, but that doesn't mean they wont kill people. i never said they were nukes, and when i said the power of one i meant the explosion, not the fallout. it's a telephone pole sized rod of titanium dropped from orbit, thats gotta do something. iirc the us air force was looking into something like this. while yes, radiation does kill a lot, explosions are deadly too.
