I read the nuclear power plants are first infrastructure targets, with warheads set for ground detonation to maximize fallout.  It's hard to find a safe place if full exchange would take place, the west is definitely safer but every state has lower risk zones for fallout shelter.

Exchange with who?

The Chinese are too busy making jet passenger planes using money from Western Banks and the Russians are to busy selling Diamonds and oil to Europe.

North Korea does what it is told by China.

I'm not sure many leaders understand that any attack that causes a few nuke plants to go up will eventually cause their own country to be incapable of sustaining human life even if there is no retaliation.

Close, but no cigar.

Best film opening ever.  I have been unable to find an MP3 version of this song:

I am sure that MANY leaders understand the use of paranoia to keep the mob in its place :)

And 'On The Beach.'

By the way, both 'Fail Safe' and 'On The Beach' were re-made in 2000. Here's hoping they'll both get to be re-made in 2040 (even though the originals will always be the best).

On the beach is absolutely fantastic.  Understated, well acted, little to no special effects.

The original one.
