A Nuclear War Would Be Insane

A Test at unidentified atoll in the Pacific and resulting mushroom cloud
Let’s get to the point fundamentally and unmistakably, a nuclear war would be insane.
Ever since the Cuban missile crisis in 1962, President Kennedy knew it and so did his counterpart Nikita Khrushchev in the Soviet Union. Even Stalin, probably the most brutal man ever never considered it.
That’s why in the cold war between the U.S. and the USSR, MAD, mutually assured destruction were the operative words and the primary reason a nuclear conflagration never occurred because such a war was unwinnable and to contemplate winning such a war was insane.
Yes tough guy Donald Rumsfeld as secretary of defense talked of using tactical bunker busting nuclear weapons but the use of any nuclear weapons began and ended with the U.S. dropping two atomic bombs on Japan in August 1945.
Nuclear weapons today are infinitely more powerful than the bombs dropped in 1945, are Multiple Independently Targeted Reentry Vehicles-MIRV’s and there are no anti-ballistic missiles capable of intercepting a MIRV nuclear weapon from hitting its multiple targets once they are unleashed. So again, any nuclear war would be insane and life on Earth could not survive a nuclear holocaust.
Dr. Paul Craig Roberts, whose writings I follow and greatly admire and has been prescient from the beginning of all the events in Ukraine before and after the coup of Viktor Yanukovych, has written, “If Putin lets Washington retain the Russian provinces of eastern Ukraine, he will have demonstrated a weakness Washington will exploit. Washington will exploit the weakness to the point that Washington forces Putin to war. The war will be nuclear.”
Dr. Roberts has alluded to today’s world conditions as reminiscent to the time prior to W.W.I writing, “the entirety of the western media are repeating the path to war that led to World War I” - a point this writer alluded to writing, “2014 is somewhat reminiscent of 1914 prior to the outbreak of W.W. I”only in 1914 no country possessed nuclear weapons, which is not the case one hundred years later.
