.....tonights news said Trump wants to escalate production of nuclear weapons  and Putin replies with ..." Yes we must do the same"   So does it begin again ?    Millions killed on the whims of two men  proving that mine is bigger than yours .    ?   

My blood runs cold at the thought of Trump becoming the most powerful man in the world .

Yours, mine and every other sane person on this planet. In the words of Private Frazer.......We're Doomed!

 
Perhaps it won't happen ...building a wall round Mexico ...there won't be any cash left for escalating the nuclear arsenal . 

Do these meglamaniacs have any idea what nuclear explosions do to the planet ?   Its not theirs to destroy...... its ours ..the people , not them ..the Hitlers, the Stalins, the Stasi  , the users of religion to control the population .... the poisoners  of children's minds .    We sang protest songs in the '60s  against the US sacrificing their youth in Vietnam .......we did the same on the Somme ..... but no one listens to the people .  

The mind controllers are scary  , in the US  Pete Seeger wrote & sang protest songs  ,,, they banned him from TV & radio for years  .

I think the best thing to do is just carry on as normal.

My generation was brought up with the 4 minute warning.

When the sirens go off you have 4 minutes to live, no bombshelters, Nothing!

If you survive there will be food only for those fit to work etc etc etc.

The best place to be would have been right underneath the bomb.

I was a small child when Kennedy and Kruzchev put the world within moments of nuclear holocaust.

I picked up on the fear it filled my parents with, they'd fought a world war and seen the desolation caused by the bombs dropped on japan.

America and Russia had the nuclear capability to destroy the world hundreds of times over.

Even if everybody was dead the missiles would still launch automatically at the enemy, the ultimate " Scorched Earth Policy "

I could go on.

The thing to remember is despite all the sabre rattling between these superpowers nothing happened.

Nothing at all.

MAD, if you remember tha acronym.

However at that time both leaders were intelligent, &, also not egotistical like one of them is today.

 
Trump as president worries me. The only thing that could have made it worse would have been Borris for PM.  I think Obama has been a good president, at least he is the first for a long time that has not started a war.
 

 
I think the election of Trump is beyond belief TBH   .  But he still  has to get his ideals through Congress . 

Perhaps we should have more women running the world ...they don't need to enter into the "my willey is bigger than yours  "  scenarios. 

 
It's a bit like the German thing isn't it? We had the 2nd world war which was started by Hitler and his desire to rule Europe. Fast forward to 2016 and we have the same situation,Germany wants to rule Europe, only this time nobody seems bothered, or to be more accurate they are trying to do it sneakily. The world is in a right state and I'm grateful that I'm in my 50's because in another 30 years I'll probably be under the sod, because the way it's going I don't want to be around then.

 
Thing is , us old gits ,  ( you know ,.... Steptoe , Specs,  Kerch...all that lot   :innocent )     grew up under the nuclear shadow  and the  Russians  hanging on to half of Europe after the end of the war .   Then with the likes of Gorbachev in Russia the ice started to melt , the "Iron Curtain" started to part ....Gorbachev said   " We don't need Star Wars , we need Star Peace "  .

But we still end up with enough weapons to destroy the Earth  and Trump announces he want to escalate the deterrent  .

The history of mankind , since the begining of our time on Earth was & still is a slaughterhouse .  Apart from the powermad despots invading everyone , like us,  we hate each other by colour , religion , race , political belief, country , neighbourhood,  soccer team and Plasterers .

After the carnage of World War 1 they thought there would never be another war   " The war to end all Wars"  they called it .    Well from our vantage point in time we know better,  unfortunately . 

When will they ever learn ?

there wouldn't be any wheat to sort out from the chaff left!


There would be Keith Richards, Ozzie Osbourne and cockroaches left alive.

Might as well put them in charge now, it couldn't get any worse than it already is.

 
I don't think Trump will be the disaster the MSM suggest he will be to the world......... Sure as hell Hillary wouldn't have been much better.... Both were unelectable, and too old to be President - who is his deputy???
