- After the Cold war, the fear of nuclear annihilation seemed like a thing of the past. But hostilities between the superpowers are on the rise again - and so are the world’s nuclear stockpiles. Russia is throwing nuclear threats, the United States is flashing its nuclear saber and China is rapidly expanding its arsenal. It's time to wake up.

One thing is certain - our Almighty Creator will not allow humans to destroy our beautiful planet and all life on it. He has a purpose for us and no one can prevent him fulfilling that purpose. (Isaiah 45:18) Very shortly he’s going to make drastic changes here on earth by removing all human governments along with everyone who causes pain and suffering for others. (Daniel 2:44; Proverbs 2:21, 22) His heavenly Kingdom government is currently poised to take over the rulership of the entire earth and bring true peace and security and untold blessings to mankind. (Luke 4:43; Matthew 6:10; Micah 4:3, 4) As the King of the Kingdom, Jesus will lovingly care for each and every one of his subjects. No one will be in want of anything. (Isaiah 65:21, 22) Psalm 37:10, 11 says: “Just a little while longer and the wicked will be no more; you will look at where they were, and they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace”.

No, because of capitalism and its ever capital expansion essence embedded on it.
I guess the TV show "Fallout" was released at the right time.
Would like few more seasons before the bombs fall.

Not seen the TV show. But "Fallout" stopped being a problem once we got fusion bombs.
So allready think the show is silly from its name without seing it.
@@MrDanisve ofc its silly bro. its a show based on a video game. but you should still give it a shot. its got some good actors and it keeps you reeled in, and like every show it has its downs but its a good watch if you dont know what youre in the mood for.

Consider that 31 countries are under the 'US nuclear umbrella'. That was excluded from this video.
"Why the nuclear arms race is on again?" Because dealing with the environment was WAY too hard, so we went back to what we're good at. War and fear of war. Good job monkies.

If you haven't yet, watch the movie Threads (1984), if you dare. It is not for the faint of heart. Yet, we must watch it, share it, and realize what we're risking by continuing on this path. This is not a time to bury our heads in the sand.

Sad times
@@abhilash2417 ???? As far as I know nukes don't discriminate between rich or poor
Yes, very sad times indeed, but there is some good news that most people are unaware of. Our Creator is very shortly going to step in and solve all our problems for us. He alone has the desire and the power to do so. His righteous and just heavenly Kingdom government, about which Jesus preached when he was on earth, will very soon completely remove all human governments along with everyone causing harm to others. (Luke 4:43; Matthew 6:10; Daniel 2:44; Proverbs 2:21, 22) As the King of the Kingdom, Jesus will bring true peace and security to all earth’s inhabitants. (Micah 4:3, 4) He will undo all the damage that’s been done, and he will lovingly care for each of his citizens. (Isaiah 65:21, 22) The whole earth will be filled with joy and laughter. Tears of sorrow will be turned into tears of joy. (Revelation 21:4) These wonderful changes are imminent!
What did you expect
right. In a time when all are lying, you can only trust God and that's ok with me.
The Russians have cosmos 2499 satellites there kinetic weapons way more powerful than nuclear weapons
MAD indeed
Indeed! When they already have the ability to destroy our planet multiple times over, it is absolute insanity to keep spending billions each year producing even more nukes. When you add to this all the other major problems threatening mankind it is very clear that world leaders are a complete and utter failure. That’s why very shortly all human governments are going to be removed by our Creator’s government, the Kingdom of God, which will then take over the rulership of the entire earth. (Luke 4:43; Matthew 6:10; Daniel 2:44) Together with true peace and security, it will bring wonderful blessings to all mankind. (Micah 4:3, 4) As the King of the Kingdom, Jesus will lovingly provide for all the needs of each one of his citizens. (Isaiah 65:21, 22) Tears of sorrow will be replaced by tears of joy. Revelation 21:4 says: “And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more. Neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away”.
SAD, not MAD

They want to destroy the enemy if attacked but the truth is they will destroy each other and the world with them.
who gave this Earth to America ? do they have ownership papers ! why are they acting like they own the Earth and that they are masters and the rest of us just nothing ! this needs to stop if NOT then yes it needs to be changed replaced by any means even if nuclear changes is ok
Thats the point. you destroy me, you destroy the world
This is pure madness. Mankind should get rid of all nuclear warheads. Is this the great filter that all civilizations cannot get through.
Yes it is madness and it appears to be a reasonable example of a "great filter". Civilizations grow too powerful, fail to collaborate, and destroy themselves. Nevertheless we must try to change course, because the alternative will leave us wishing we had died directly in one of the initial blasts
True, for example it is frightening that an unhinged psychopath such as Narendra Modi of 🇮🇳 has his fingers over the nuclear button.
Just prepare people. Remember the Nuclear Rule of Thumb
Duck and cover!
Mutually Assured Destruction AKA MAD!!! Everyone loses... at least someone's smart lol
I did. I bought two tin cans of canned beans, heard they are full of PFAS. If I don't die poisoned, it means no nuke will be released. claro?

Did they expect these nations to fold back?

6:48 they are going into areas they didn’t use to go before. Now that’s escalation
Problem is wanting to having military bases in other countries And then blaming them for doing exactly the same
Its a big difference as in to why and how this came to be for the US I assume you are speaking on
The difference is that other counties are willing to join the group of alliance or nato in other words voluntarily, compared to how russia forced other countries through ultimatums, wars, and other barbaric methods to join their powers...... Let other countries choose what they want, like Ukraine wanted to be closer to europe for better life without corruption, or at least try to...... Does nato try to attack other countries to get full control over them in modern history? With russia it's Chechnya, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Lithuania conflicts....
"If Russia and China join forces". Really? If?🙄
Why if? Given the current climate after Ukraine war, it’s clear. Also India taking “somewhat” neutral stand suggests it’s Russia + China + India.
Lot of diplomatic efforts should be started to or probably are underway to manage the balance, and not letting the world very polarized

we need an EU nuclear umbrella, to replace the US nuclear umbrella.
seriously???? you think the world will be ok if the bombs fall around Europe? you think your life will be good????
Not happening because most of EU people are against being heavily armed. They often criticize US being making so much weapons
USA have a pet, it's called Japan and EU
France has it and it is both in the EU & NATO
@@TheJorrry there is quite a lot of support for increased military spending in most EU countries right now. Not sure how the majority feel about nukes though.
Peace not war, we are all human. No one in the mainstream advocating for a peace treaty
Ukraine shows the world how dangerous it can be to not have a nuclear deterrence. They handed their stockpile over to Russia. What people are worried about is not nuclear armageddon, but traditional warfare, which can bring just as much devastation.
They gave up nuclear weapons they didn’t have operational control over nor the launch sequence for. And they’ve done so under US pressure, that wanted them to join the NPT as a non nuclear state. Above all, they’ve received substantial compensation (received nuclear fuel rods and energy debt write-offs from Russia). What’s the point of keeping nuclear weapons they can’t even use? They didn’t even have a nuclear program to maintain those weapons.
I disagree. There will never be a traditional war on US soil - too many armed and well trained civilians. That’s where our enemies would rather defeat us using nukes. That would definitely cause a lot destruction..
Bring it on.

They are and yet they maintain the ability to project military power globally both fielding genuine blue water navies. While most of those bigger countries can only operate with any reasonable level of effectiveness within there own regions.....

The most tragic thing about our species that's we are professionals when it comes to destroying ourselves
very hard times ahead indeed...unfortunelly
can someone please educate me, so if lets say Russia and USA were to fight a nuclear war, if either of them were to drop those nuclear bombs, cant they be intercepted ?? is it an endgame once they are dropped or they can somewhat be shot down?
Once released they drop. Unless a god or alien intervenes that nuke canNOT be stopped. Unfortunately
In the 70s the US and Soviet Russia signed a treaty limiting their Anti-Ballistic Missile arsenals to 100 for each of their capitals and 100 for another site in each of their countries. See, if one country builds a ton of ABMs they could theoretically nuke the other country with impunity, so this threat incentivizes their adversary develop offensive countermeasures so their ICBMs can remain an effective deterrent, spiralling into a big expensive arms race of offensive vs. defensive weapons. The only winning move is not to play.
Imagine this Russia launches its nukes that are ready to be launched we are talking hundreds of icbms on each side they shoot up outside the atmosphere flys awhile and then comes down on the enemy’s country each icbm has 8 nuclear warheads inside of it so when it’s coming down it detaches all 8 meaning thousands of nuclear warheads it’s just not possible man
It is much harder to intercept a nuke, mainly due to the fact that it deploys warheads once it’s close to the target which is like multiple miniature missiles that scatter, and some of those warheads are decoys meant to counter interception
Some nukes can be intercepted, yes. Hence why the US and Russia have such large arsenals. If each nuke would connect, you wouldn't need 5000 of them. The US probably has much better intercepting capabilities than Russia, but if 1/5 goes through, that's still thousands of warheads.
Need something more aggressive than nukes
What I don't understand is why you would realistically need more nuclear weapons if what is currently stockpiled would have the ability to decimate the world/at least the country you're in conflict or apposition to. Like, other than a flex, why would it matter if you can destroy all of a countries cities ten times over where as an opposing country can "only" do that 5 times. Can someone enlighten me?
Yeah it's like trying to water your garden while it's raining
“The nuclear arms race is like two sworn enemies standing waist-deep in gasoline, one with three matches and the other with five" Carl Sagan
Try making a video with a narrative about "which countries don't want to be demilitarized"...
....!? This is a good time to play fall out again
There are borders between states.
There are borders between regional powers.
Then there are borders between super powers.
To even talk about nukes shows you that neither Russo Ukraine war, nor Gaza conflict is a war between states, because they'd never be used / states don't have them.
Super-power sponsored proxy wars.
We need Vault-Tec
we do NOT need vault tec😭😭 they gon cause a nuclear war
Instead, you should make a video that explains why many people need this video to know what's going on. It's like explaining that the sun will still be hot tomorrow. Everyone who is normal knows this perfectly well.
The Nuclear Arms Race restarted in 2001. When the U.S. announced they were "re-furbishing" their nuclear arsenal, Russia warned that:
(1) it wasn't in the spirit of NPT i.e. arms reduction, not refurbishing or upgrading, and
(2) such a move by the U.S. would force Russia to do likewise.
The United States ignored these warnings and proceeded anyway.
USA has very advance inteligence and if they did this they must have have solid reason based on future scenario projections
Future scenario projections they caused to worsen.
@@rodrigobarroso6075 Do You have a diploma in military scenarios projections? Thats cool
Dont hide behind a tank, it'll melt on you!
Does anyone know how many nuclear weapons would be needed to cause a global nuclear winter?
I don't think anybody knows for sure. It's going to depend also on how many are surface vs air bursts, local soil / ground characteristics, weather patterns etc.
It could vary widely, depending on how many were used, how large the weapons are that would be used in terms of explosive yield, and perhaps most importantly how they were fused. If they were set to detonate with an airburst, hundreds or thousands of feet above the target, like what happened with the two bombs used over Japan in WW2, it maximizes the area destroyed but the radioactive fallout is minimized. If they were set for a ground burst, such as a surprise attack on another country in order to destroy their nuclear missiles in their underground silos before they can be fired in retaliation, they would explode after hitting the ground, churning up tons and tons of dirt that becomes highly irradiated and thrown high up into the atmosphere where it can remain for weeks or months before raining down around the globe as fallout. That's what could at least partially block out the sun, preventing crops and plants from growing.
In a report done in the 90's by nuclear scientist on a TV program, he claimed 7.
@@leosalas41ify clearly this is not true, think of the number of detonations from tests alone

What can happen there ?
Through game theory we know that regardless whether we concider them as an enemy, coperation and forgivness is key which is quite the opposite of what the US is doing just blatenly labeling them as mortal enemies and shooting down all possibilities for negotiations
i am saving to go to Switzerland asap
Uh radionuclide fallout, civilization collapse, ecosystem collapse will affect the Swiss too. They have to leave their bunker system when the food runs out.
The EU needs its own nuclear stockpile, both to protect itself in case the USA ditches it and to avoid having three poles which is the most unstable world order. Not for nothing it’s the world order Orwell chose for his dystopian book 1984.
Poland are on the way. They even got a nickname European texts 😂
If we end , we end what can we do ?
You do understand the concept of nuclear deterrence, right? It kinda needs nuclear weapons. So, in the future there will be more deterrence.

“If you go on with this nuclear arms race, all you are going to do is make the rubble bounce.” ― Winston S. Churchill
Ah yes, the same Winston Churchill that put pressure on the US to start a nuclear war against the Warsaw Pact right after WW2. That's the last guy you want to quote on nuclear weapons use.
American human rights activist Ajamu Baraka: Ukrainians finally realized that they were being prepared for destruction for the sake of the geostrategic interests of the United States, which have nothing to do with them. The result is massive capitulations on the front line and people avoiding conscription.
Ukraine has no choice.. being invaded by a communist country is much harder..
We all lose.
It not if, but when
That might be true if our future was in the hands of world leaders but the truth is that all human governments are very shortly going to be removed by God’s powerful heavenly government, his Kingdom, of which Jesus is the King. (Luke 4:43; Matthew 6:10; Daniel 2:44) Also everyone who causes harm to others will be removed. (Proverbs 2:21, 22) The Kingdom will bring true peace and security and many blessings to earth’s inhabitants. (Micah 4:3, 4; Isa 65:21, 22) Jesus will lovingly care for all the needs of each and every person. Tears of sorrow will be changed into tears of joy. A wonderful future is very near!
