" Because the financial sparring between East and West may have taken a very serious turn yesterday and I seriously believe a tactical nuke was set off. If this is the case, China will provide proof and they will retaliate. I believe the smoldering stages of what was a financial/technological/trade war have now become hot and the first shot was fired."
I'm no expert, but I would think the use of a tactical nuke would be hard to cover up. The effects of the radiation would become obvious. And I dont think the US would be stupid enough to have used one. However, I wouldnt rule out sabotage by outside interests.
