Smiling Buddha - India Goes Nuclear

from Cold War Cast · host Cold War Cast

With the recent tensions between India and Pakistan, i figured it was a good time to talk about India’s entrance to the nuclear club. We’ll talk about the reasons why India would want the bomb and the world’s reaction (particularly Pakistan’s). We’ll also discuss some issues of nuclear proliferation- if the US and USSR can have these weapons and be trusted to not end civilization as we know it, what’s the problem with nations like India or Pakistan having them? Enjoy!

K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Magnetis Cast Magnetis Investimentos A Magnetis é uma gestora de investimentos que tem a missão de ajudar as pessoas a investir no que importa.
