<jtc, by any chance do you see a nuclear war before the year 2000?>

I don't think any of the known countries that possess nuclear weapons will be using them before 2000 in a war. I think the first use of nuclear weapons will be by a terrorist organization. I wouldn't be that surprised if some well financed radical group such as the Islamic Jihad hasn't tried or succeeded in securing nuclear material from the cash straped demoralized Russian military. Last year 60 minutes went on a bust by Russian police of black marketeers trying to peddle nuclear material. You've got to figure for everyone they catch there must be a lot more getting through.

What frightens me is our military intelligence is almost non-existant, as was demonstrated by India's detonation of nuclear bombs without us having a clue it was going to happen. Like everything else only a tragedy will force us to address our foreign policies and military. Sometimes it's more than just the economy.
