Are USA and Russia careering towards nuclear war?

Can We Talk For a Minute About the Nuclear Threat? It’s real, and it’s back again. Esquire, BY  DEC 30, 2015 “……..Call me a sucker for boomer nostalgia, but a bunch of guys in second-hand pickup trucks still don’t scare me as much as the fact that there’s a death-load of nuclear material and nuclear weapons still floating around out there on a somewhat open market. Comes now William Perry, a former Secretary of Defense, to share my concerns………
Perry’s warnings come not long after a Republican presidential debate in which the nuclear “Triad” once again became a thing because it was clear that He, Trump didn’t know fck-all about it. The other candidates—especially Chris Christie and Marco Rubio—leaped in and joined in a call for a new, modernized Cold War. This is exactly what scares the hell out of William Perry……..
Perry far ahead of our national politics on this subject which, when they deal with nuclear weapons at all, largely talk about them in the context of the “war” on terror, of suitcase bombs and deadly container ships. Perry is properly concerned with these scenarios, but he’s also sending up flares to the effect that the United States and Russia may be careering toward the days of Fail Safe and Dr. Strangelove again, the days of accidental apocalypse……….http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/news/a40864/nuclear-war-real-threats/
