I'm guessing you're too young to remember the era of MAD, starting in the 1950's going thru 1990 and the fall of the Soviet Union. The emphasis is on "mutual" - both the US and the Soviets had arsenals which were ... excessive. The Chinese did not participate because A) they couldn't without substantial expense, and B) "Go ahead, you guys blow each other up while we watch." |
