There are more idiots with nuclear weapons now than there were then. And if one of them, just for the hell of it decides to let one go. Neither the United States or Russia will say, “Where did that one come from?” They will just go all out at each other. With the exception of the Attack on Perl Harbor, both World War 1 and World War 11 were started by miscalculations. World War 1 by an assassination. World War 11 by Hitler not believing Britain and France would go to war with him over Poland.

I am not against them fighting. I am against the United States joining them. We have more than enough to do in securing our Southern Borders. I hope you are right.

***Then it behooves us to uphold the agreement that took nukes OFF the table.

And if one of them, just for the hell of it decides to let one go.
***That is the direction things are likely to go if we don’t get nuclear nonproliferation right, and that is the direction you’re trying to go. You should think through your own positions more clearly.

Neither the United States or Russia will say, “Where did that one come from?”
***You present no evidence in support of this position you’ve developed. It is not in America’s nor Russia’s best interest to do such a thing, MAD still works.

They will just go all out at each other.
***They haven’t so far. Due to MAD. So why do you support pushing MORE nukes onto the world stage?

With the exception of the Attack on Perl Harbor, both World War 1 and World War 11 were started by miscalculations.
***And WW2 could have been prevented if the west had stood up against Hitler at Sudetenland. It’s weird that those siding with Russia just want to forget anything to do with Sudetenland and the lessons of appeasement failing.

World War 1 by an assassination. World War 11 by Hitler not believing Britain and France would go to war with him over Poland.
***Don’t forget that Russia helped carve up Poland by invading from the east at the start of WW2. So, you think a miscalculation could cause WW3? Doesn’t that include the Putin miscalculation that he could just go in and re-invade his weak sister neighbor, take her oil & gas reserves all because he sniffed weakness on the part of another ridiculous democrap American prez?

I am not against them fighting. I am against the United States joining them.
***Then you should not be against giving back the Ukes their nukes, since we signed that agreement and accepted them honoring it. If the Ukes had never given up their nukes they never woulda been invaded.

We have more than enough to do in securing our Southern Borders.
***Standard Putinist Red Herring.

I hope you are right.
***And I hope you are wrong.
