Nuclear Realism Global Political Thought During The Thermonuclear Revolution by Rens van Munster & Casper Sylvest, 2016
What is a realist response to nuclear weapons? This book is animated by the idea that contemporary attempts to confront the challenge of nuclear weapons and other global security problems would benefit from richer historical foundations.
The American government is more predictable than the laws of nature. They threat a country when they were the same people retreated from the previous agreement...
"US President Donald Trump is “seriously considering” Iran’s offer of indirect nuclear talks – but at the same time is beefing up forces in the region for a potential escalation, according to sources cited by Axios on 2 April."

Watched "The Missiles of October" over the weekend and found two and a half hours of men sitting in a room, talking, riveting.
Adapted from JFK's book, the Kennedys are portrayed as concerned about how the US, the leader of the Free World, will look if it attacks a small Caribbean country. No mention is made of the CIA engineered coup in Honduras during Eisenhower's administration.
Now watching some very funny comedy.
Check your local library for the DVD.

Opinion | A nuclear war started by AI sounds like science fiction.

"Donald Trump has laid down a Ukraine-like ultimatum to Iran: either agree to give up your nuclear program within two months or suffer the consequences. He’s been vague about what these consequences might include, but I can now report specifics that are as severe as you can imagine.
“We can't let them have a nuclear weapon,” Trump says. “I would rather have a peace deal than the other option but the other option will solve the problem.”
To the casual observer that might sound like more of the targeted airstrikes the U.S. has been doing, but behind the scenes, as the Pentagon prepares for a "major" regional war with Iran, the use of nuclear weapons is on the table.
The new Iran war preparations that have been underway since last year include new nuclear options.
“One might find it extraordinary to think that nuclear weapons are even considered,” a retired senior military officer who has been briefed on the planning tells us, “but we have entered a new era.”
The officer says that a combination of factors — none of them precipitated by Donald Trump directly — have created a perfect storm to bring nuclear weapons back into the picture."

Trump is a fool so enormous, he may be the guy to start a nuclear war.

MIT Professor and Pentagon advisor Ted Postol presents the threat of nuclear war that is increasingly ignored, and the insanity of the US plan to deploy nuclear weapons in Germany.
If you do one thing today, please watch this talk.
Today I'm looking back fondly on my idyllic childhood and having to watch "The Day After"[1983] as a homework assignment.
A long read but, imo, a *very* worthwhile opportunity for enlightenment!
“Macron's Folly: Why "Pacification" Guarantees Escalation - From Munich to Minsk: The West's Relentless Path to War with Russia”
by Raja Sohail Bashir in The Geopilitical Compass on Substack
Today in Labor History February 21, 1958: The CND symbol (aka peace symbol) was designed and completed by Gerald Holtom. The Direct Action Committee (DAC) commissioned the project in protest against the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment. The DAC was a British pacifist organization that did non-violent direct action whose goal was the total renunciation of nuclear war and nuclear weapons. It existed from 1957 to 1961. They organized meetings, marches, vigils, pickets and acts of civil disobedience.
plot twist: russian state media is now threatening to let north korea start a nuclear war instead of threatening to start one itself

My article about how survival narratives in #ColdWar America used stories of personal survival to justify the genocidal choice of nuclear war fighting by the national government.

“'There Are No Civilians; We Are All at War': Nuclear War Shelter and Survival Narratives during the Early Cold War"
"When three volunteers tested the government's nuclear shelter advice, they didn't expect such disturbing results. The women became listless and reported hallucinations after just 48 hours in their makeshift fallout room. "
