We owe our lives to many decent people who had the "button" in their hands. Sadly, that button is passing into the hands of the Islamic Death Cult and I don't expect them to exercise restraint.

Yes the Islamic death Cult of the Iranians and thankfully President Trump is putting the screws on the economy of that crazy country so they won't have a nuclear bomb in 7 years . Not to be confused the sudden death cult of my college days also known as The Cult LOL

CPT Jack Durnish, I suspect that you are correct in your estimation. There is no negotiating with terrorists, and this current ilk has a particular disdain for the American culture. Some would have you believe that if we are "nice" to them that they will come to the negotiating table in a calm, cool manner. Sadly, the only thing they wish to do is remove your head from your body because we are infidels.

We hid under our seats in our classroom; in the sixth grade: during The Cuban Missile Crisis.

I originally saw the story on a BBC DVD. It really freaked me out. Also, Nikita Khrushchev son said that the local commanders on the ground had permission to fire their missiles in case they lost contact with Moscow.

The commander who said no was aboard k-19 Widowmaker. This submarine was rushed into service and had a nuclear failure and almost had a meltdown.
