Who Is Going To Use Nuclear Weapons First?
Citizen Watch Report ^ | Michael

Posted on 05/08/2025 3:21:32 AM PDT by davikkm

Will we soon witness the world’s first nuclear war? Following nuclear-armed India’s attack on nuclear-armed Pakistan, media outlets all over the globe quickly published stories about the possibility of nuclear war. In fact, this morning the main headline on the Drudge Report was “WORLD HOLDS BREATH” in all capital letters. Yes, it is entirely possible that a nuclear war could erupt between India and Pakistan. But will someone else use nuclear weapons first?

In the Middle East, a showdown is looming between Israel and Iran. We know that Israel possesses nuclear weapons, and there are some experts that are convinced that the Iranians have also acquired nukes. If an all-out war erupts between Israel and Iran, I have a feeling that both sides will be forced to show what cards they are holding.

If the Iranians do have nukes, they may have gotten them from the North Koreans. If a major war erupts on the Korean peninsula, and that is a very real possibility, the North Koreans would not hesitate to use nuclear weapons.

In Europe, the conflict in Ukraine definitely has the potential to go nuclear. The Ukrainians have targeted Moscow with drone attacks for three days in a row, and they are threatening to attack Russia’s Victory Day parade in Moscow on May 9th. If that happens, we are being warned that Kyiv could be wiped “off the face of the Earth”. Let us hope that the Russians will continue to resist the temptation to use tactical nukes against Ukraine, because if that line is crossed any hope of peace with Russia will be completely gone.

No one. Nukes are bluff weapons. There is no country going to pull the nuclear weapon trigger first.

The entire article is summed up in the second paragraph when he wrote … “I have a feeling”.

WWII was a one-off demonstration. The exception that proves the rule.

Create a scenario were any country gains an advantage or victory firing the FIRST strike nuclear attack at their enemy. Go ahead this ought to be good.

The United States pulled the nuclear trigger first. Of course at the time nobody else had them and Japan was already on its last legs. The weapons since have become even more destructive with fusion . So big , in fact , that they are limited to 20 Megatons because anything bigger simply wastes its energy going up into space.

Read an article recently (I’ll have to try to find it) about a 1980’s/Reagan era war game played. We (USA) played against (Soviet Union - with our side playing Soviets) in which a typical Cold War scenario (Soviet move on Europe) escalated quickly from non-nuclear weapons, to tactical battlefield nukes, to theater nuke, to full-scale MAD in a very short period of time. In fact, the last communications between Caspar Weinberger and the team playing the part of the Soviets, was, “See you in hell”….as they launched.

Countries gain enormous advantage by having the THREAT of nuclear weapons. Russian politicians threatening the use of nuclear weapons frightened Sweden and Finland to join NATO to get under the U.S. umbrella.

Eisenhower ended the Korean War by threatening the use of nuclear weapons against China.

You think I don't know history? The USA DEMONSTRATED the power of a SECRET weapon at the end of WWII. No one knew about them at all, not even the VPOTUS. The use of nuclear bombs during the last weeks of WWII was a one-off event. Never to be repeated.

(No one)

Keep an eye on Iranian Twelver Shia Mullahs
in case they succeed in developing
a functioning nuclear weapon

I say they will not hesitate but
may wait until they have several
in their inventory

My guess is they’ll sail one
into some harbor or use a passenger
jet disguised as civilian transport

Hope I’m wrong.....

It's only a threat. A bluff. But it seems to work on the weak minded.

It would be like two enemies handcuffed to each other and one pours gas on both of them. Then claim they are going to light a match. Ain't ever going to happen.

“The weapons since have become even more destructive with fusion.”

A hydrogen bomb is set off with just a plain old nuclear bomb. I once read what happens when a hydrogen bomb hits a city. The most bone-chilling thing ever written. It is really beyond human comprehension.

Never say never. Hate is a powerful thing. People kill themselves all the time out of pure hate.
