LLAW’s “ALL THINGS NUCLEAR” #496 (12/30/2023)
”End Nuclear Insanity Before Nuclear Insanity Ends Humanity”
LLAW’s THOUGHTS TONIGHT:
I believe that today was the first day in the 496 consecutive nights I have been posting the world’s news that there was not a single media story of useable merit in the “Nuclear War Threats” category. I will take this for what it is — nothing! But still an entire day without chest-pounding fear-tactic threats full of obvious lies from not one single nuclear-empowered nation in the entire world? llolloll!
That’s hard to believe — especially when there remains only tonight and tomorrow night to get that important “last word” in before we wake up to a brand new year of “I told you so’s”. We can use tomorrow night’s “Nuclear War Threats” final day of 2023 to see what countries are the most ‘diligent’ about threatening us with their phony drum-beating final tribal message to all of us to “prove” that they, by god, are serious.
This would be a fun betting game for those of us who like to make a friendly bet now and then. For my money, I’ll take North Korea. Who’s your pick? ~llaw
