Perhaps the most heroic moment of President Trump’s historic 2016 campaign was the when he stood on the South Carolina debate stage and dared to call out the Iraq War for the disaster it was. Trump achieved victory in 2016 in large part because of his sacred pledge to end our nation’s forever wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere and—finally–to bring our brave warriors back home. President Trump has taken a major step to fulfill that sacred pledge with recent commitments to troop withdrawals, combined with the nomination of two of America’s leading voices for America First foreign policy to key ambassadorial roles in Germany and Afghanistan.

Shamefully, Revolver News has learned from top senate sources that Republican Senator Jim Risch has been deliberately sabotaging the confirmation of William Ruger and Colonel Douglas MacGregor to ambassadorial posts in Afghanistan and Germany respectively on account of their support for the President’s America First policy of troop withdrawals.

Senator Jim Risch.

Colonel Douglas MacGregor is one of the strongest defenders of the America First foreign policy President Trump campaigned on. He is a vocal critic of neoconservative foreign policy interventionists like Never Trumper Bill Kristol, and believes, as the President does, that it is time to end the endless wars and bring our troops home.

End Forever Wars

I wonder if Trump is aware of the true reason we are in Afghanistan.

It is not to protect Opium poppy production since there is a program in place to provide farmers with alternate cash crops.

We reason are in Afghanistan is so if the Pakistanis should become more unreasonable we would be able to take out their nukes. ;)

That would be a joint effort with Indian troops on Pakistan border.

I would imagine so. The Indians have nukes too and if there were an exchange between them it might cause a nuclear winter. ;)

Pakistan nukes and triggers are kept in TWO distant locations.

Any attempt to move triggers brings in US and India.

Nuclear triggers

The generally used meaning of the phrase “nuclear trigger” is that of the primary component of a Teller-Ulam thermonuclear weapon. In modern usage, it is typically a very small yield boosted fission bomb (sub kiloton I was surprised to discover) that when detonated, the x-ray and gamma radiation is channeled by the shape of the overall bombcase and a foam type of material known as FOGBANK (interesting story there - the US essentially forgot how to make the stuff) that then implodes and triggers the secondary stage of lithium deuteride and a boosted “sparkplug” of either HEU or Plutonium.

Another older usage of the term might indicate the “pit” - the actual fissile nuclear material that when compressed into a critical mass creates the actual nuclear detonation of a fission device. Fissile materials are generally considered to be Highly Enriched Uranium (HEU - Uranium enriched to 82% or better of the isotope U- 235), Plutonium, or Oralloy - a mixture of HEU and plutonium.

We had the original Fat Man 10,000 lb monster.

Use to be a poster here that worked with Teller and Leó Szilárd.
