Oh do tell... I would enjoy reading a link that supports your doomsday theory'd weapon //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
The Tsar bomb held by the Russians @ 50MT was the largest known to man... It was detonated in 1961 yet we are all still alive and kicking today.

Even if the United States had the will for another war, there is NO way we are going to be playing the invade and democratize game in a country that shares borders with china and russia.

You make a very good point.

how about you look it up to defend your own claim. Why would anyone spend the time and money to create a bomb that would kill themselves? You may be thinking of the theoretical cobalt bomb, but one was certainly never made.

Doomsday Machine if triggered by a nuclear bomb attack inside Russia. It would destroy all human and animal life on Earth and enshroud the planet in a 93-year radioactive cloud, and it could also go off if any attempts are made to disengage it: When it is detonated, it will produce enough lethal radioactive fallout so that within ten months, the surface of the Earth will be as dead as the moon!...When they are exploded, they will produce a Doomsday shroud. A lethal cloud of radioactivity which will encircle the earth for ninety-three years! The Doomsday Machine is designed to trigger itself automatically...It is designed to explode if any attempt is ever made to untrigger it...

The Doomsday scheme costs just a small fraction of spending on defense in a single year.

Deterrence is the art of producing in the mind of the enemy the fear to attack. And so, because of the automated and irrevocable decision-making process which rules out human meddling, the Doomsday Machine is terrifying. It's simple to understand. And completely credible and convincing.

The technology required is easily within the means of even the smallest nuclear power. It requires only the will to do so." The essence of the Doomsday Machine is that it is "triggered automatically" and also "impossible to untrigger."

The Doomsday Machine, explains a US study that considered the Doomsday Machine for America. Based on findings of a report conducted by the Bland Corporation, the US abandoned its own plans for a Doomsday mechanism:

The Doomsday Machine is automatically triggered by "a specific and clearly defined set of circumstances" programmed into a "deep memory bank" of a "gigantic complex of computers" - it automatically triggers world destruction if an H-bomb falls on Russia. "The whole point of the Doomsday Machine...is lost...if you keep it a secret.

We are giving the world everything it needs to take us out. We have no money. Our future is gone because the companies that guided our youth in the past are gone. Morallity went out the window years ago. This place is a ticking timebomb.

What companies "that guided our youth" are now gone?

And what exactly does it mean for a company to "guide our youth?"

In short, WTF are you talking about?

We have been putting off the issue of the Korean War for over 50 years and now it has come due, with interest.

In short, WTF are you talking about?

Outsourcing our work to foreign countries to save a dollar. Removing jobs from the American people, the jobs that OUR parents raised us with, All of it is now gone. What jobs we have now are not suitable to sustain an economy and allow growth and prosperity. WTF I am talking about is the whole GAWD DAYUM reason we go to college, the reasons we pursue degrees, the livelihood we strive for as middleclass citizen. Regardless what your visions are towards the job market, the fact remains. If companies keep dropping out and leaving us for dead, there is no direction to go. I hope that we can resurrect our working way of life. Because circle K and Wal-Mart are not the jobs of tomorrow. I see people’s lives SHATTERED everyday because of outsourcing. Those that hoped to be where their parents are we they grow up are now distraught over the coming future that is unfolding.

"to hell in a handbag" would be fitting at this point.
