Cold War? Seems we did a very good job of bombing ourselves. How many were detonated as a way of sending some "signal" to the other Powers?
SAS
You in US and those in Russia and China can say that as a good proportion of the ones you let off were on or under your own soil.
Europeans can't as they were very careful not to bomb themselves - they carefully made sure they only let them off somewhere where others lived.
