The Second Nuclear Age Is Already More Dangerous Than the First*James Holmes* *Nuclear Weapons, Asia-Pacific* Better to think about the unthinkable now than when the unthinkable takes place. *Here’s What You Need to Remember: *Making strategy for an increasingly heterodox epoch—an epoch when more and more societies sport the ultimate weapon and think differently about how to brandish it—thus represents a trying task. Indeed, it could prove more trying than Cold War strategy-making from yesteryear.

Why it happened is one of the persistent questions in historical climatology. The cold spell set in around 600 years ago and was responsible for crop failures, famines and pandemics throughout Europe, resulting in misery and death. A sudden change from very warm conditions in the late 1300s switched to unprecedented cold conditions only 20 years later. read more read more

But despite a total lack of credibility given his repeated actions, Schiff has never suffered any consequences. And what does a bad person do when... read more
