Five world powers issue pledge to prevent nuclear war |
2022-01-04 |
[DW] China, La Belle France, Russia, the UK and the US have agreed that a nuclear war "cannot be won and must never be fought." The joint pledge was issued ahead of what was to be the latest review of the Treaty of the Non-proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). That’s nice. What impact will their solemn pledge have on the Mad Mullahs of Iran? |

#3 Nice sentiments, but I seem to recall that the Kellogg-Briand treaty outlawing war in 1922 didn't work so well. |

#2 Given that Hiroshima is in much better shape today than Detroit suggests that a little nuke war may not be such a bad thing. Time to reread Herman Kahn's On Thermonuclear War. |
