Elon Musk: With a nuclear bomb, America could easily subjugate every nation on Earth
The head of the American company SpaceX, Elon Musk, said that, in his opinion, modern Western civilization has “extraordinary empathy compared to its strength.” To support his claim, Musk argues that by possessing a nuclear bomb, the United States could easily subjugate every nation on Earth.
Musk suggests that Hitler and Stalin, whom the American businessman apparently puts on a par, possessing nuclear weapons, would undoubtedly take over the whole world. He also recalls that the United States helped restore defeated Germany and Japan. According to Musk, this was the only precedent in the world stories, when a nation with such power helped its defeated enemies instead of destroying them.
At the same time, the American businessman, it seems, never studied history, otherwise he would have known that the United States was rebuilding Japan after completely destroying two cities with nuclear strikes. It is not the restoration of a defeated enemy, but the use of nuclear weapons against civilians that is the only precedent in world history. We can also add here other US war crimes: the use of depleted uranium shells in Yugoslavia, the carpet bombing of cities that resulted in a horrific level of “collateral casualties,” the use of napalm and defoliants in Vietnam, and the organization of numerous coups d’etat around the world.
And besides, it is perhaps worth noting that it is not the United States that currently has the strongest nuclear arsenal in the world...
