But the Russian nukes in Kaliningrad are widely accepted and not controversial, right?

Peace keeping to be used when the glass is broken. Germany can suck it. They still lost the war.

The specter of bioweapons use, and the potential stealth that could conceal their use, raises the question of ‘What constitutes mutually assured destruction in the context of bioweapons?”. Mutually assured destruction is a major factor that has kept nukes from being used, but how does this concept apply to bioweapons?

At present, the potential to respond to bioweapons with nukes is a possible deterrent, and the upgrading of our nuclear capacity is thus very important. I hate that the world runs this way, but it often does, and we need to protect our families and ourselves.

I wonder if they are B-61’s?

Heh, those things always looked like Buck Rogers weapons to me. All silver with fins that looked like they were designed back in the late fifties...

I'm always scratching my head in amazement how we keep insisting on smaller warheads while our enemies are going supersized.

Its like the top brass keep accepting the policy that we can mouse-click them into submission, while they will devastate our entire population with just a few huge warheads.

I had seen the delivery technique for this type of bomb practiced at sea with a MK84 (instead of a nuclear weapon) being lobbed from an A-7 Corsair-This video shows it pretty well

Sigh...Every ten-twenty years or so we must re-educate a new generation of snowflakes as to why nuclear weapons are still necessary to counter those possessed by potential adversaries. Don’t they learn this stuff in school? Dumb question, I know. They teach them unilateral disarmament assuming that good will will make them reciprocate.

Remember when those Deusche-bags threw bags of blood at our bombers in the 1980s to protest the Reagan INF nuke policy that brought the Soviets to their knees?
