  • That is very important. Today's wars are illegal

  • @soylentgreenb

    U are right. M.A.D worked. It was proven in Cold War. It has proven today too. America wouldn't attack North Korea.

  • @unreal672003 Well, if I go down the list of US presidents who deserve to be frog-marched in front of the Hague, tried and hanged I get as far back as Carter before it even causes a moments pause; and I just don't know that much about carter

  • @zauzari Nope, nonsense based on extrapolation from Hiroshima.

    Lots of "small" fires don't loft soot high enough. 6 million barrels of oil per day up in smoke from kuwait oil wells in the first gulf war; no soot above 6 km.

    Modern cities don't burn well. Hiroshima hadn't seen rain for 27 days, was made of wood and paper, had open coal fires(which was the cause of most fires, NOT the thermal flash). Nagasaki, which was almost as bad, did not have a firestorm.

  • @KhmerD0g Nuclear weapons have done and excellent job holding politicians hostage. Old farts can no longer send young men to fight and die for them against a nuclear armed opponent, because they would be among the first to snuff it.

    The problem with nuclear weapons is the disgusting culture of secrecy and concentration of power in the executive branch they have created.

  • Obama can be charged right now for murder of US citizens, but nobody cares.

  • @SurferRosa79 sure

  • @samuelmichaud inane lol

  • When does Paul Jay even get time to read all these articles and books lol
