5 times we almost nuked ourselves by accident

RE: 5 times we almost nuked ourselves by accident
One can only speculate at the sort of war we would've had if the USSR and the USA had not have had their nuclear arsenals.

Because sure as shit if not for those arsenals they would've been at war within a few years of the Third Reichs capitulation and Europe would have been even more fucked up than it was.

Bad as those weapons are(and they are pretty damn horrific) the alternative was worse.
