Is There a Global Nuclear War?

Vladimir puten's talk about nuclear weapons is indeed disturbing. At the time we're recording this, it appears to be just nuclear sabre rattling" It doesn't appear that global nuclear war is an imminent threat, in part because our intelligence services have been reporting that they have not seen russia making the kinds of moves that would be expected if a nuclear war were imminent. Even if puten was schopt enough to order a nuclear exchange, it's not clear that his orders would be obeyed.
