This things 2 klicks across. Cant blow it into small enough chunks - your way would simply cause us to be hit by *billions* of medium size asteroids with greater total damage. Only practical way is to deflect it, and that means either a large nuclear explosion close to it or ...
There must be an or. Theres always an or. But we have no nukes big enough and no other technology can pack that much power in a small enough package.. Daresay we could come up something in time, but woudnt want to bet my life on it.
