LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Wednesday, (05/01/2024)
This link, just below, to the AFR (The Financial Review), is a well-thought out article about the possible immanent annihilation of the human race together with all other life on planet Earth and is also yet another review of Annie Jacobsen’s new book “Nuclear War: A Scenario”. Everyone, not just so-called “world leaders”, seriously needs to read and thoroughly digest this almost novelistic-style warning to us all. I am on my second, more studious, way through her book, which is, as I just said, a warning for us all to seriously pay heed. ~llaw
