Hi there! Since my name was mentioned I thought I would add a brief comment.

Not one of us can accurately forecast what the general population of the USA would do under the severe stress of several cities being nuked.

We have a pretty good idea of what people will do when captured and held prisoner. Fox News had two two guys who just converted after being held prisoner for a couple weeks without being nuked.

Are you familiar with the Stockholm Syndrome? Many examples of people committing to their captors.
