I would imagine that the response from the US navy missile submarines is likely to deter anyone from trying this in practice. :shock:
That's the line of thinking behind the Cold War, when all the parties were "rational". I don't know that the threat works as well with less rational people.

In the case of the Chinese, they might have already taken out the satellites we need for missile guidance, if they haven't already hacked the subs software with a virus. In the case of Rooskies, that Putin is a rabid dog with ADHD, no telling what he might do. And don't forget about home grown loonies, or extremist rag heads that can walk across out porous borders. I'll bet a crude EMP device is not beyond even a room temperature IQ that has Internet access. <end of rant>

How'd that happen? When did it start?

Why is it so warm in here? What am I doing in this basket?

Hi,

I may be badly mistaken but I suspect those who have bought and paid for their toy politicians are truly running things.

That's how it works in Ireland anyway :shock:

take care...
