[sci.electronics] Probability of WWIII

 Do you think the world leaders would be able to run a "controlled" nuclear
assault, after the first strike? The first hit would destroy the earth's
magnetic field, so any signals to successive launch sites or launched missiles
would be completely obliterated.
 Or is there a method I am unaware of?
