(1,216 posts)No, it won't be an all out nuclear war.
Having nukes is best guaranty against all out war.
India & Pakistan fought 4 wars before both got nukes.
Now it is a stalemate with limited border skirmishes.
US & Russia went through extended cold war with MAD.
(mutually assured destruction)
If Japan had Nukes during WWII, there would not be
Hiroshima & Nagasaki bombing.
Kim Jong UN got scared after Twitter threats from tRump.
Kim likes his whiskey and donuts too much to fight a war
he can't win and will surely get killed.
No nation who has the wherewithal to develop nukes
is going to commit suicide.
So...here is what will happen...
Religious extremists who routinely execute suicide bombings, will get hold of a portable nuclear device and detonate in some US or European city.
