Total nuclear annihilation was avoided in 1983 only because a Soviet air defense officer, Stanislav Petrov, refused to transmit his early warning to Moscow for fear that his equipment might be faulty. It was, and Petrov averted a total nuclear war by lucky guesswork. — PolitiTweet.org

False launch detections have happened. In 1983, amid a moment of high US-Soviet tensions, a Soviet early warning station detected massive American missile launches. Moscow had feared exactly such a decapitation strike, seemingly now minutes from landing. — PolitiTweet.org

So what does all this mean? Putin is not insane; he is not going to deliberately start a nuclear war. Rather, the main risk is a freak accident or miscalculation that sets either side hurtling toward last-ditch "defensive" strikes in error — very unlikely, but not impossible. — PolitiTweet.org
