LAW’s Nuclear World’s Thoughts Today . . .
Of course the militaries of the nuclear world would naturally believe that “deterrence” is the prevailing preventative medication for avoiding nuclear war, but as I stated in my post from blog #1,111 just last Wednesday, how can it be affordable forever — or even a decade — and when the cost of adding nuclear weapons to nine nuclear arsenals around the world becomes financially prohibitive, what ‘ya gonna do? That’s when WWIII begins — if not tomorrow or the next day for just about any insane reason you can think of . . . and so I am repeating myself from last Wednesday’s Post about “Nuclear Deterrence”:
The following is what I wrote about “deterrence” in last Wednesday’s, blog #l,lll:
It astounds me, oddly and strangely, hat our only existing ability to prevent nuclear war is to rely on something called “nuclear deterrence”, which consists of building a and stockpiling more and more, and more, nuclear warheads as time goes by so that our “despised and untrustworthy neighbor(s)” are inclined not to, or afraid to, attack one another. All it really means is that humanity fails to trust our neighbor(s) even moreso than when there were actual international agreements, pacts, and agreements once honored but now violated, torn up, and demoted to something called “file 13”. It tells me that international leaders of a nuclear-armed country cannot be trusted.
I suspect that the never-ending cost of this ridiculous idea of “deterrence” will one day become too expensive for one of the nuclear-armed countries that it can no longer afford to continue the financial drain of “nuclear deterrence” will of necessity turn “nuclear deterrence” into financial depletion”, meaning, if nothing else starts nuclear war, money will.
A financially distressed world leader may very well decide one day to say, “to hell with deterrence — we can’t afford it anymore”, and bomb their most hated “neighbor”.
That’s all it will take to create our own “armageddon”. ~llaw
