MAD MAX !
A recent newspaper report expresses concern about how UK nukes could go off like popcorn accidentally. Should this happen, what would be the picture ? Wide-spread devastation ( fire-tenders will be of no use ! ) and most of the UK destroyed without any trace of life.
It is a mad & bad world. So many countries have piled up so many nukes for what reason ? What justify this madness ?
They argue that it is for self-defense or as a deterrence. But logically one country would never need thousands of nukes to defend or destroy another country given the capacity of destruction of modern nukes. Only a dozen will be more than enough for any such heinous act.
In fact ever since its invention, the nuclear weapon has been a curse on entire humankind.
Every child born today enters into this highly risky world. And how unfortunate they are.
Whether present generation could live to see it or not, it is almost certain in future the WW III will broke out and it will be fought over oil or food for sure. And then these thousands of nukes are bound to be used and we mankind will mutually agree (!) to destroy ourselves.
Actually nuclear weapons are WMD( weapons of mutual destruction).
Serious efforts should be initiated by major powers to ban this weapon and totally destroy the existing stockpile in the entire world.
