Gav, I should have switched the [Irony Switch] on!
But the risk of nuclear war is something we have to be very conscious of. The world is stacked with weapons. The people with the weapons are likely to have faltering economies in the near future. They will feel a growing need to "do something". Remember that Japan thought that attacking the most powerful industrial nation on Earth was a "good idea" after the Americans embargoed their oil supply in 1941...
Maybe not so much a "good idea" as perhaps they thought it the only option.
Perhaps their way of life was non negotiable? ;-)
