If putin throws a dud nuclear weapon out, would that stop us from nuking them? Would we be like “oh bless your heart,” and stick to traditional weapons, or would we be like “you fucked around, now find out why America doesn’t have universal health care?”
No. Because retaliatory missiles would be fired long before the “dud” landed. I can guarantee that any missile leaving any known nuclear site would illicit a response. The only hesitation would be “where is it heading?”. After that though… it’s fair game.
Fucking wish America would stop being the worlds police.
I suspect turning another country into a radioactive wasteland of black-brown glass is politically unetnnable for most nations.
