Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD)

== Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) ==
Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) is not a hypothetical, it is the reality of living in this system since 1945:
MAD is a “global peace concept” wherein two or more opposing sides, each possessing enough nuclear weapons to inflict devastating damage on each other, ensure peace for humans: the idea is that the threat of total annihilation acts as a deterrent, preventing any party from initiating a nuclear conflict.
Many nations, including Russia, China, and believe it or not, North Korea, know they'd be committing suicide launching nuclear weapons during a war. I've seen several special breaking down why Vladimir Putin or Kim Jong Un never follow through with their most blustery of threats. They're lovers of themselves according to 1Tim 3. So they don't want to die and aren't inclined to sacrifice themselves for their nation. So there could theoretically be a worldwide conflict involving conventional forces where all the selfish leaders are afraid to push the big button. Just putting another possibility out there.
Who knows, might lead to the nations thinking they almost killed themselves and they desparately need peace, which causes them to take the UN offer seriously
