Quoting: Vlad TepesIt will change the way major wars are fought because nuclear powers will be able to slug it out in other countries, on the sea and in the air but not invade each other or obliterate their cities. Imagine it as a slightly hotter cold war. You can forget about gentleman's agreements during modern wars; hogwash. The opposite is true: because of the nuclear weapon there would be no WWIII, because the next war after it would be fought by sticks and stones - if anybody would survive it. Even more relevant: while the Global Plutocracy – largely controlling the world – favors local, confined wars, a world war would harm its interests. * |

For an agreement to hold both sides have to have convincing means of punishing the one that breaks it. So yes, the existence of nukes reinforces the gentleman's agreement not to use them. But the current thinking is that they also prevent direct/hot conflict between the nuclear powers. They won't. Sol Dominvs Imperi Romani Imperium Romanum Sacrum In Varietate Concordia |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1441408Yup. Those that don't understand this yet should look at how chemical and biological weapons were used (and not used) in WWI and WWII.

If war breaks out between east and west then nukes will definately be used. The west has battlefield nukes like the davy crocket system, which they have stated can be used as conventional weapons. This will only lead to escalation. Of course nukes will be used. |
