When I was young we marched in “Ban the Bomb” protests. Over time the narrative of non-proliferation was drowned out by MAD. Not to worry, everyone was told, “Mutually Assured Destruction” was the policy that would keep all of us safe from a nuclear holocaust. That way…

…the multi-trillion dollar nuclear industry could continue “refurbishing” our supply of nukes (already 7,000) - pretending it was for “our security.” Now one madman with nukes is saber rattling & doesn’t seem to care that we could nuke him back. Such fools have led us here.

You mean Joe Biden/NATO are rattling their sabers? Bcs they put nuclear weapons on Russia's borders. The US almost started a nuclear war when Russia put nuclear weapons in Cuba. So, it's OK it we react but not ok if Russia reacts. Your foreign policy takes are juvenile.

You remember the Cuban missile crisis. We almost started WW3 to keep nukes off our border. We put nukes on Russia's border, surround them with military bases, yet we are blameless when they react. Google Stephen Cohen for historical facts leading to this conflict.
