Re: The World has suddenly got more dangerous.

Nostradamus did predict WWIII would start this year.

I've heard from US friends that fuel prices are going up in the US and that the economy is going belly up. The spat with China has created a right mess. Now he is turning on Russia.

Nuclear arms are only a deterrent if we don't ever use them.

The Chinese are not backing down, they say it is the USA being provocative, they are comparing his actions to the Chinese sailing Nuclear Armed Warships in the Gulf of Mexico.

The USA does not fight wars on it's own soil, it fights them elsewhere.

Russia has responded to the latest attacks in Syria by USA and Israeli planes by moving very advanced missile defence systems into Syria.

I hope that our deluded bunch of politicians have the sense to keep out of this.
More dangerous?
Are these weapons deterrents? You hit me, I'll hit you harder?

They have been around for decades yet none actually deployed in hostilities as far as I know.

Hi

There are enough to destroy continents around, but as you say, not used so far.

The ones Trump is now going to build are battlefield tactical nukes, not the huge strategic destroy a city in a blink ones.

Sooner or later one will be used and it won't be in mainland USA.

Bit like the Mother Shipton rubbish who forecast things.

Was said that she forecast the end of the world in 1991.

But her original quote was the end of the world in 1881 and was changed when it did not happen to 1991.

Read and learn.
