I suspect if there is a major incident to come, it won’t be an accident.There have been an alarming number of accidents and near-misses involving nuclear weapons, most of them for very mundane reasons. The US accidentally dropped four nuclear bombs on Francoist Spain in the 60s, for example.
The images of devastation are horrible and I don't think that they will be used again in anger.Never again?

Do not underestimate the psychopathic tendencies of many of those that reach those sort of positions.The images of devastation are horrible and I don't think that they will be used again in anger.
It could be argued that in dropping the Bombs that many more lives were saved both in WW2 and in subsequent wars just by the mere threat of them being used again.
Japan had decimated Asia and were not in any mind to surrender until the second bomb landed on Nagasaki.
The Americans drew up some estimates of probable casualties involved in an invasion of the Japanese home islands which came to some very large, but most likely inflated figure.The images of devastation are horrible and I don't think that they will be used again in anger.

You might not like him, I don't not many do, but he's definitely not stupid.Do not underestimate the psychopathic tendencies of many of those that reach those sort of positions.
Left entirely to his own devices I could definitely see Trump using one because he's stupid and would just like the feeling of power from it.
Do you have the name wingy please?Watched a very good programme on bbc4 the night before last all the children of the time reminiscing..
Sorry can't help Pete.Do you have the name wingy please?
Any country using a nuclear weapon against another nuclear power would likely result in most of the planet being dead within hours.Do not underestimate the psychopathic tendencies of many of those that reach those sort of positions.

That doesn’t prohibit one being used against the likes of Ukraine or PalestineAny country using a nuclear weapon against another nuclear power would likely result in most of the planet being dead within hours.

And vice Versa in Hiroshima. Something from Coventry cathedralAm I right in thinking that in the old cathedral ruins there is a sculpture donated from either Nagasaki or Hiroshima?
I'd wager he's got a higher IQ than you. He's also done remarkably well in business, in fame and finally in politics. Again I'm going to suggest better than you. Even getting people to follow him is a pretty good skill, and after the first term to come back again is even more remarkable. Laugh all you like, disagree all you like, but you're wrong. He doesn't use his skills for good, and he knows what triggers people. You don't have to like someone to acknowledge their achievements.
If there's one thing he definitely is it's stupid.
Literally off the top of my head he suggested people could be injected with bleach to cure covid. Fucking brain the size of a planet hasn't he...
Didn’t he inherit 100s of millions and still manage to go bankrupt?I'd wager he's got a higher IQ than you. He's also done remarkably well in business, in fame and finally in politics.

Rich people never really hope bankrupt. I believe 1m too not 100m but could be wrong. Trump towers certainly been profitable for a long time.
*edit wiki foes mention multi millions, but doesn't detract from other interesting parts.
I'll bet he doesn't.I'd wager he's got a higher IQ than you. He's also done remarkably well in business, in fame and finally in politics. Again I'm going to suggest better than you.

Or even hard workIt’s one of the oldest fallacies there is to assume that wealthy and/or powerful people achieved all their wealth and power because of intelligence or skill.
Equally there us duch bias that others can't see success because they're blinkered to it. You can accept success without liking someone.It’s one of the oldest fallacies there is to assume that wealthy and/or powerful people achieved all their wealth and power because of intelligence or skill.
Donald Trump has been extraordinarily successful and he has many qualities that have helped him with that. I just don’t think that intelligence (as defined by IQ) is one of them.Equally there us duch bias that others can't see success because they're blinkered to it. You can accept success without liking someone.
Fairly sure it’s Nagasaki

Can't deny his work rate.I'd wager he's got a higher IQ than you. He's also done remarkably well in business, in fame and finally in politics. Again I'm going to suggest better than you.

Family man that has cheated on all of his wives numerous times and charged with sexual assault. Plays his kids off one another so they fight for his favour. Teetotal but stuffs his face with junk food all day.Can't deny his work rate.
Particularly at 79. Teetotal, family man & Ran the show when he was in Aberdeen recently. Dominated press conferences. Well on top of his brief. Starmer meanwhile was virtually mute as his ideology was verbally decimated piece by piece.
