All this talk that a nuclear war > would not leave survivors is pure BS! You talk about Reagan stating > thatover 50% of Soviet population would survive and you say this > is ludicrous. You are dead wrong. I think that this argument is drifting in the direction of "nuclear war is winnable". So what if 50% of the people aloive today would survive? Having 50% of your population killed (or any number of this magnitude) is NOT winning a war. And this is aside from theories of nuclear winter, which is certainly not freezenik soviet propaganda....
