Good video and straight to the point. I love everything to do with military hardware and weapons and if it wasn't for my lack of commitment when I was
younger I'd probably be a member of one of Britains armed services. However as much as I love the might of the machines that can deliver a nuclear
deterrent I have never understood any reason why any particular country would use a nuclear weapon because it's my belief that it would literally
destroy the world and which whatever country came out on top it would undoubtedly be a false victory.
The aftermath of a nuclear war would be so destructive that once it's all finished there would be pretty much nothing left of a planet for anyone or
any country to gain any advantage. As the video says, there would be large vast areas of radioactive wastelands, no crops and the world would plummet
into a nuclear winter. What advantage would a global power have once they came out of their nuclear bunkers. The world would be sent back to stone age
and have to build from square one again. Not only that but would the surviving people of countries think of ruling governments after a nuclear war
when everything has been destroyed.
That's why I've said before if a nuclear war was to happen a small part of me would want to survive as it's humans natural instinct to live and to
survive and self preservation but a large part of me would just say 'F*** it'. Living on the edge of London I'm probably in some sort of blast radius
and to escape any sort of blast radius of have to get out quickly which in the event of a nuclear war isn't going to be easy. So in all honesty I'd
probably take some beer and go to a hill near me which you can see the London skyline and openly accept this was the end. Also a personal thought is
that if a nuclear war was to happen quite frankly I wouldn't want to be a part of a world where countries are so hell bent on wiping out so many
innocent lives in the name of global power. And as I said above if I were to survive what is going to be left for me ? Nothing but destruction and
radiation
Aaah sorry I've gone on for too much but I just wanted to add my thoughts. Now I'm going to go find a aviation related video to balance out my post
