On the anniversaries of the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we must listen to the few who can still speak to the horror nuclear weapons can inflict.
and besides, if we ever did decide to use them, china has nuclear weapons, north korea apparently does, and russia absolutely does. India has the capability in theory to produce them. And iran is pushing to make them, so. Most of the EU has possession of some US nuclear weapons, the UK specifically has their own i believe. Unsure of how independent they are, but they’re out there.
We would be the least likely to use them in large scale outside of MAD attacks. NK is probably the most likely, as they would likely fly over russian territory, and that’s kinda fucky wucky.
as we haven’t even counted the nuclear subs yet, both the US and russia, and china naturally have them, and those are basically automatically insured MAD. If a nuclear weapon were to ever be detonated outside of a test (which is also unlikely due to technical advantages on our side) the entire world would probably collapse within about 3 hours.
well if it’s any condolence, the current military leadership is highly opposed to nuclear arms being used in war, period at this point.
Trump tried to suggest it a few times, didn’t go well.
That does help actually. Thank you
