    There is only one country that is constantly threatening a nuclear attack. That country is not in NATO.

    The only country in the world with an official “first strike” nuclear policy is the United States.

      Not arguing there. But this was 80 years ago. You would think that making threats of this nature would be something that you would show restraint considering we have a history.

        The U.S. is the only country on the planet that has a first-strike policy, i.e., that as a standing matter threatens to use nukes. This is not 80 years ago, this is right now.
