https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-nuclear-pentagon-idUSKBN1ZY2EQ Jim Bell's comment:. So, the Russians are complaining about low-yield nuclear missiles. So, what should we do? I know, call them and reassure them:. "Okay, we've replaced the micros with 1 megaton babies. Feel better now, Ivan?".

Might sound humorous on the surface, but the major problem with this is it opens the door to use of such "small capacity nuclear missiles" which then drastically increases the likelihood of escalation in any real war between Russia and America - which rapidly (in a matter of hours), escalates to global nuclear war. Some people (especially elites with their underground city bunkers with ~100 years worth of supplies) think this is a good thing. Putin has been very clear, and warning for years, that the path America is on, is a steady re-escalation of the cold war arms race, which is not a good thing by any measure, and he continues to hold out and publicly seek for the detente which was achieved prior to the collapse of the USSR - a time when frankly saner heads prevailed.

back in the day, Bush touted "nukular bunker busters" as possible curb to Iranian nuclear ambitions. same fear of normalizing weapons of last resort; same risk of escalation through miscalculation. see also: the doomsday clock best regards,

The Pentagon claims they made the next gen 'safer than a doorstop', and they have (at least designs for some) about the same size as a doorstop (or a buttplug...) But never mind all that because: World To End After Clumsy Scientists Set Doomsday Clock To Midnight By Accident Saying they were profusely sorry for their mistake, representatives of the Bulletin of Atomic Scientists have announced the world is set to end imminently after they set the Doomsday Clock to exactly midnight by accident. “We were adjusting the second hand and someone must have slipped or something.” The clock had previously been set at two minutes to midnight and they had meant to move it forward by twenty seconds to reflect the risk associated with climate change and all the other bullshit going on in the world. “In our defense it was probably going to legitimately get to midnight fairly soon anyway.” They say they expect the Earth’s self-destruct sequence to begin sometime during the next few days. “Time to max out those credit card, guys!” http://www.breakingburgh.com/world-to-end-after-clumsy-scientists-set-doomsd...
