If this were real, nuclear blasts for 70 miles, the oil fields would be shutdown for critical health reasons for a long time and many workers would not return for health and political reasons (assuming a normal easterly air flow).

The real question is whether this would precipitate a domestic dispute in the U.S. that would prove far more disruptive than the inital foreign blow.
