Zim: "The absolute worst thing these United States could do would be to unilaterally de-nuke ourselves."

Who is talking about the US unilaterally de-nuking? (Did I miss something?)

Having Nukes has long meant, and apparently continues to mean, YOU WILL NOT EVER BE INVADED BY MILITARY MEANS. You may be sanctioned (Russia, Iran, N. Korea), you may be infiltrated (US), you may be socially neutered/sterilized with psy-ops (US)...but you will not be militarily invaded.

The evidence is all around you, Zim, that your primary excuse for why the US HAS to continue deficit spending trillions to support foreign military bases and foreign military adventures (to prevent military invasion of the US) is FALSE. At the very least that should give you long reason to pause and question your premise.

Nuclear powers NEVER get physically invaded. At least up until now, that appears as an ironclad rule of the post nuclear age: Iraq, but not N. Korea, etc.

Where do we go these days? Oil. Where do we not go? Possible nukes on missles; we never pursue open warfare there. And neither, by the way, do any of the other military powers.

That is my hypothesis, anyway. And it makes a mountain of sense, explaining a mountain of events...and non events...which your hypothesis utterly fails to address.

A 2022 study published in Nature found that even 5 Tg of soot from burning cities, fuel stores, and forest fires would be enough to cause global famine.

First, given the number of lies told lately by so-called 'scientists' . . . I'd have to take this with a shaker or two of salt.

And, second, the world has enjoyed a 'Great Nuclear Truce' since WWII. The 'SuperPowers' can not afford a 'conventional War' with each other for fear that things will go nuclear. Likely meaning the end of life as we know it on this planet. What has happened instead? The Koreas remain divided. America lost in Vietnam. And Russia lost in Afghanistan. And the losses Russia is taking in Ukraine should be seen as catastrophic (for Russia).

What worries me is pizz-ant countries like Iran getting nukes and deciding that they'd rather be dead than live on the same planet as Israel. Or N. Korea deciding to 'nuke something' cause nobody will take their 'nuclear blackmail' seriously.

Third Point. The absolute worst thing these United States could do would be to unilaterally de-nuke ourselves. Think about it . . . if Russia had nukes and we had none . . . and Russia decided they wanted Alaska back . . . What could we do about it?

Zim.
