If indeed this transpired under our current leadership.....I would fear for everyone on this planet. We would likely react in a shortsighted, vengeful retaliation on whomever our pathetic intel community decided was most likely to cower in fear. The destruction felt here would pale in comparison to the death and brutality we would inflict upon the world.
If history (recent) is any indication we would squander any chance at unification of nations, and instead bankrupt ourselves in a bravado showing of strength in the face of adversity. Most of Asia would be gone.
If this happened in say....Five years, perhaps there is a chance it would be a relatively constructive event when viewed in hindsight. Partially because it might scare everyone into cooperation to remove such a threat from recurrence. But it may also serve as a warning of the dangers we have been so stupidly creating for ourselves through ignorance, and political bullshit.
Or-
We could all just be incinerated in a flash of Balefire that rivals the sun.
