The New Nuclear Arms Race Pursued By Russia, China, the U.S. And Others

Nuclear wars cannot be won. Everyone loses. Humanity and most life on the planet.

There is a new nuclear arms race. Some believe it is a race that can be won.

The stupidity and destructiveness of the nuclear arms race knows no knows no bounds.

Russia and the U.S. justify their madness by their mutual distrust and at times animosity. Other countries have entered the insanity.

Cheer leaders clap at the madness, in their blind loyalty to Putin or another leader.

There is much more to this world than the parochial interests of Russia, China, the United States or any other country. This world is not meant to be destroyed because of the narrow minded and selfish interests of a country or of a religion.

No nuclear weapons advancement should be applauded. Every new missile test, every new way to deliver nuclear bombs and destroy the other side is nothing but a huge step backwards.

Life in the ocean has to contend with enormous amounts of plastic and other pollutants. As humanity continues to pollute and destroy the oceans and environment, guaranteeing further impoverishment and hunger for the future, nations that should be devoting resources to helping the environment instead choose to squander money on the stupidest, most destructive of all races.

When a leader or a country anywhere in the world brags about their nuclear weapons and their missiles, in what appears to be displays of strength, bravado and patriotism, no clearer sign can be given of their moral bankruptcy and stupidity.
