Comments by "Son of Somerset" (@sonofsomerset1695) on "Jeremy Corbyn pressed over whether he'd use nuclear weapons - BBC News" video.
mutually assured destruction is why we need nukes, please engage a brain, the threat of that stops rogue nuclear powers now and in the future targeting us, that's the whole point a leader has to BLUFF that he would use them even if he wouldn't. Jesus what is wrong with you people!?! Nobody is begging for them to be used, we are begging for an intelligent leader that has the sense to bluff that they would be used.

Who have they nuked then?

I didn't say it would stop conventional war, I said it deters nuclear strikes from rogue nations and future rogue nations, I think you will find many non nuclear nations have been attacked and invaded, Ukraine is one such prime example.

Oh I agree, Russia are not totally to blame in Ukraine, it was the CIA and the EU that instigated an undemocratic coup that Russia repsonded to on it's borders. But again you are jumping to conclusions, I never said we should nuke anybody, if you BLUFF that you are prepared to it makes a nuclear strike from another irrational side far less likely if they THINK they will also be destroyed if they launched such an attack. It's actually about keeping the peace!

By not bluffing you would use a nuclear deterrent you actually make a nuclear attack more likely, and your idealized Corybn honoured terrorists that blew up innocent people, perhaps you should think more on that a while before shipping him your love.

I think you misread or misunderstood me, I said you make an attack more likely if you DON'T bluff that you WOULD use a deterrent then you make an attack more likely. JC makes the whole world less safe by not bluffing.

JC should just say he would, and then not if it actually happened, as probably May or another leader wouldn't. That's the point of secret notes to the nuclear submarine captains, to keep the enemy guessing and worried that we would strike back. But JC would rather virtue signal than worry about actual national security and inviting trouble because it will be a popular vote winner amongst the young and naive as shown by so many comments on here supporting him.

I think Ren Jay that you and many other Corbyn supporters are completely oblivious to the whole point of a nuclear deterrent, which is to maintain nuclear peace by the threat of mutal destruction from crazed powers that you cant ration with in any other way, that's why a leader has to BLUFF they would be used to MAINTAIN the very nuclear peace you claim to want. Think on that if you are able.

If you can't understand that threatening to use nuclear weapons (even if you ultimately wouldn't on principle), in retaliation is necessary to stop nuclear weapons being used by one rogue side that has no reason you can appeal to apart from mutual assured destruction, then you shouldn't be allowed to vote at all. It's called bluffing, if the west hadn't we'd probably all be speaking Russian now or dead after Russia nuked us during the cold war. SIck of naive kids and brainwashed fools trying to confuse the argument with peace, it's a nuclear deterrent, by having it and PRETENDING you will use it, it KEEPS the nuclear peace against warmonger nuclear powers. Corbyn also honoured dead IRA terrorists and now lies about it, any one that votes for a man like this is deluded to the extreme.
