Cool? They’ll never use them
- NotSammyHagar 6y agoWe hope. To me the worry is less time to consider false notices of attacks. Any attack will be met by devastating counter attacks so there should never be a consideration that any notice is a real attack. There are many almost launches where there was false notice (the moon reflects radar, etc).
- sgillen 6y agoDefinitely, I worry about this a lot. I do wonder about some of the close call stories that are out there. It seems like in its in Russia’s best interest to project an image that they are willing to launch without hesitation. So I wonder if any of the stories of “two officers wanted to launch and only the third saved us all” stories are propaganda. I don’t have any evidence of this, and I definitely don’t want to play down the risk of nuclear war.
