To the editor:

Nuclear weapons — nine countries, the United States, Russia, France, China, the United Kingdom, Pakistan, India, Israel and North Korea have a stockpile of close to 13,000 weapons.

Who is going to do it, to start World War III? Who will it be to drop the first nuke? China’s XI? Or North Korea’s Kim Jung-Un? Or America, which is shooting down weather balloons like ducks on a pond?

Talking nuclear is not like throwing rocks — no matter who goes first there is nowhere to hide. WW III will not mimic “The Charge of the Light Brigade” (“All in the valley of death rode the 600.”) Millions will perish from the aftermath of a nuclear war.

It’s time for the Fox pundits to quit the “I-gotcha” reporting.
