Thinking About Nuclear War
The shovels will only be good for digging our graves
This week, I was truly honored to talk with Robert Scheer about a subject that should be on our minds: nuclear war. I remember reading Scheer's book, "With Enough Shovels: Reagan, Bush, and Nuclear War" when I was in college in the early 1980s. Back then, at least some of the "experts" surrounding Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush believed a nuclear war was "winnable" against the Soviet Union. Those were the days of the nuclear freeze movement and of deep concern about the possibility of a cataclysmic nuclear war. (Of course, any nuclear war would be cataclysmic.)
Today, few people seem that concerned about nuclear war even as the Doomsday Clock creeps ever closer to midnight. Why is this? Scheer and I talk about this as well as other subjects related to nuclear weapons and the military-industrial complex.
There will be no war. Biden has surrendered to the Chinese balloon. (parody)

Allardyce T. Meriwether here to be exact: "2 Legged Creature will believe anything" Martin Balsam my second favorite Character in the revisionist Western Movie & Book "Little Big Man" Should be required viewing for all. "Those Stars up there my boy twinkle in a Void, and 2 Legged Creature schemes & dreams beneath them all in vain"...! One of the greatest Scenes in all movies when he gives Jack Crabbe played by Dustin Hoffman his vision of moral order. "The 2 Legged Creature will believe anything the more preposterous the better" I have sold all those propositions even that a Nuclear War is winnable...! lol As Jack might say again: "Maybe we're all fools and none of it matters"-- Ahhhh...
