Horrific Destruction

[kerravonsen]

"Russians" by Sting came up on my randomplay.

Thinking about nuclear bombs (and I followed a few other links which gave me more information on the scale of destruction they are capable of)... it's a bit like Avada Kedavra, isn't it? Not the scale, obviously, but the feeling of a death that there is no defence against. Or like the Deplorable Word - the weapon that is too horrible to use. Too horrible for any sane person to use. Unfortunately, I am certain that there exist human beings on this Earth who would not hesitate to use them if they had them. People who are not interested in their own survival.

There's no such thing as a winnable war
It's a lie we don't believe any more.

War only benefits vultures.

Maybe I should start wearing a Peace Sign. It originated with the Nuclear Disarmament movement.

Have you seen War games?

I still think it an idiocy for the superpowers to keep a stockpile of nuclear weapons that can wipe us out five times over, just once would suffice.

If you're referring to War Games, yes, I have.

Yes. And unfortunately, there are not "only" nuclear weapons...

Sadly all too true.
