    No it’s not. It’d be nuking an invading army on the land they stood. Kind of like how Ukraine bombs their own land when Russians are on it.

    It was meant as a deterrent, not an attack. It didn’t need to reach all the way to enemy territory from where it sat to serve its purpose. It’s like complaining about defending yourself from a home invader because you might get blood on the carpet…
