I simplified discussion of ionizing radiation because I'm dealing with a person somewhat ignorant of physics. Whether radiation can ionize depends on the energy of the radiation. X-rays can knock electrons off but are relative weak in effect. Gamma radiation is more energetic and it can do a lot more. Strong E/M forces can vibrate electrons in metal and cause heating. Bombs can emit any or all of these types but the balance depends on the design.
As for what I know, I was deeply embedded in engineering projects related to the aftermath of 9/11 that required clearances. I have more information than I can talk about and am handicapped by that when I discuss things with people like you. So your arguments carry little weight with me.
