I get the reasoning behind threatening retaliation, but once their missiles are in the air, what’s the point? All you’d be doing is murdering millions of people from beyond the grave and ensuring two (or more) ruined continents instead of one. You’re dead either way, so why not take the high road? The country is going to be an unoccupiable radioactive wasteland for a few centuries, so the enemy won’t be able to profit off your destruction, plus they’d feel really stupid.
