Also the thoughts behind tactical nukes.
I totally agree that strategic missile defense technology is very destabilizing and dangerous. However like always, the enemy gets a vote.
Myself and others believe that in developing and announcing these weapon systems the Russians have achieved their goal of restoring their nuclear deterrent.
On that basis I would agree that I think tactical nukes would be the way the taboo is broken if it happens in our present cycle of instability.
