*** Given that Koko's plan has a large amount of collateral damage ''built into it'', and is so vaguely-outlined that you really could believe it came from the mind of a lunatic... Essentially, the entire series points to Koko being a zealot/fanatic, convinced that her plan will bring about world peace. If she believes that, she'd probably see any fallout as being worth the risk, since it's unlikely she'd consider the failure of her plan. That said, the "answers" given above are a ''huge'' assumption: It assumes, among many other things, that her control over information is absolute, and will ''stay'' absolute, even after her death. If it weren't for the fact that Koko is a BoringInvincibleHero, and is surrounded by the same, it's likely that someone would find a low-tech way to kill her and/or disable Jormungand soon enough, especially since she's just united a world against her. Not to mention the fact that, if all the world's information is ''already'' in the hands of someone who's killed hundreds of thousands of people and may choose to do the same at any time, the various nations might not be so concerned about the fallout of accidentally shooting down the wrong satellite when not even trying could have even worse consequences. Given Koko's actions, would anyone actually believe her if she said "Oh no, I just want peace!"
