RE: US Military Readies ‘Father of All Bombs’ for Use on North Korean Nuclear Facilities
It's stupid and Ill advised, exactly like most of US foreign policy for a long time now, if they attack NK it won't end well for all parties.
The US should try leading the world by getting rid of their nuclear weapons not saying "we can have them but you can't!"
Bullies always get their cummupance eventually.
it is as if the usa has a bizarre desire to never learn from its past mistakes, for fear that they may not be able to engage in the same economically beneficial, yet entirely toxic behavior - and therefore is willing to relive 1953 and the destruction of 20-30% of an entire nation. selling bombs has the same effect as heroin, i think, as my country is in a fog of non-acknowledgment that grows deeper with every explosion.
Well...to the extent that the U.S. government is a geopolitical bully, its comeuppance will likely comes from a war with China. That's what the "Thucydides Trap forecasts.
[That name comes from the Greek historian Thucydides, whose History of the Peloponnesian War concluded that war between Athens and Sparta was caused by up-and-coming Athens alarming predominant Sparta. The "Thucydides trap" explains WW1.]
