npub1hpcdfjpxrawnmu6ryh36ce7xu4qd54pu6xca394yhvmyzlery0tqvghjn3 (npub1hpc…hjn3) The nuclear thing was always a trial balloon policy; they knew it was impractical from the get-go, but it fitted so nicely with the Cold-War-retro of banging on about NATO as a way of cornering S into making stupid choices, they couldn't resist.

Honestly, my main regret is not taking out a bet on how soon they would start shoving it back under the rug.
