Michio Kaku, a professor of Nuclear Physics at the Graduate Center City University of New York, speaks on the use ofthe neutron bomb in the war against Iraq. He says they would be appropriate: over Bahdad; as earth penetrators; to kill troops. The old deterents to use of nuclear weapons (the Soviet Union and public opinion) are not applicable since the Soviet Union is not a threat, and the public is supporting the Gulf War. There is no safe atomic weapon, he concludes, for the 20,000 rads of radiation would insure that victims, even in tanks, would surviveonly 4-6 hours.|TO WIN A WAR WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS / Janis Michio Kahu. - Michio Kayu, a professor of Nuclear Physics at the Graduate Center City Univerrsity of New York, speaks on the use of the neutron bomb in the war against Iraq.
