LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Wednesday, (07/17/2024)

This Joe Rogan article includes an extensive interview with Annie Jacobson, author of Nuclear War: A Scenario, who if you listen to it all, or at least the long discussion about nuclear war, you will know more than you need to know about what nuclear war will do to life on planet Earth, but at least you will understand that nuclear war is mass suicide, or “nuclear armageddon”. The end of our world happens in something like 72 minutes of nuclear war. Need I say more? Just one thing . . .

The only solution is nuclear disarmament, as Annie tells us, (believe me, she knows what she is talking about) and that may last for just a few generations of political agreements, cooperation and “deterrence” until it all returns. The absolute solution is to remove ‘all things nuclear’ from access by human beings forever. That can be done, but it would take years and the cooperation of every country and the entire human population on planet Earth. I urge you to listen to the full length of the video below and understand that we are just one nuclear bomb away from extinction . . . ~llaw

Joe Rogan has called out speculation that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has built a nuclear bunker to shield himself should such a war break out.

Amid international tensions over the past few decades, there have often been unverified reports of public figures having built nuclear bunkers in the hopes they would be kept safe should there ever be a nuclear strike.

Rogan said that Zuckerberg was one such figure when he spoke on his podcast last week with investigative journalist Annie Jacobsen. In her latest book, Nuclear War: A Scenario, Jacobsen interviewed a number of defense officials.(Click on the link to watch the video.)

Jacobsen said that, from the information she gathered, the scenario of a nuclear war “doesn’t end well. Not only does it not end well, 5 billion people are dead at the end of 72 minutes.”

The writer went on to tell Rogan that “if nuclear war begins, it doesn’t end until there is a nuclear holocaust. And it happens so fast—there is no quickly going to your secret bunker you have.”

“Yeah, all that’s nonsense,” Rogan said. “These people think, like, Zuckerberg is building a bunker in Hawaii [and] he’s going to survive. He’s building a hurricane shelter that might not work.”

Jacobsen said: “And also, unless he happened to be there in the exact moment when all of this went down…”

“Yeah, you’d have to know in advance that we’re about to launch,” Rogan said, adding that “the whole thing is terrifying.”Subscribe
