#2 Bernie, did you forget to paste the source URL at the bottom before you hit Submit? It's a common first-time mistake (I should know!). Just give us the link in a comment -- the moderators can fix it (I've entirely too much experience with that, too). It looks like an interesting piece you found for us -- thanks!

#5 I remember thinking, when the Iron Curtain fell, "I never in a million years thought I'd live to see this." Likewise, I never have believed I'd live to see a nuclear war, but this article makes me reconsider that...

#6 Here's the link: Israpundit

Yes, M. Murcek. Also was previously posted from that source in 11/23 opinions.

Sorry for both slips but definitely worth a read if missed.

#7 Thanks, Bernie. Very interesting, indeed. I forwarded it to my mother and Aunt Ada, who I hope will find it comforting.

#8 Author mentions Israel may have some warheads of 1 megaton. Wouldn't that mean Israel has H-bombs?

#9 Correctomundo, Frozen Al. 500kt is pretty much the upper limit for a strictly fission bomb.

#11 I think the quote at the end came from the movie War Games - The only way to win is not to play.
