"The president needs to tell them if you cross these lines, this is what we’re going to do, and you have to then enforce it."
I think we’re in an age when nuclear deterrent is actually less effective because the West is very unlikely to use anything like a nuclear bomb, whereas our adversaries might
Anyway, good luck on that three front war
Let's take a look at a comprehensive list of countries that have used nukes against others:
🇺🇲
Based on this, we conclude that the US is less likely to use nukes against others. I'm very smart
Not only that but the US spent the entirety of the Cold War trying to either use nukes again or find some way to deploy nukes to every soldier and conflict possible, with everything from nuclear demolition charges to artillery shells
Given their way the US would arm every soldier with a nuclear rifle if they could

Many years ago at reddit - I saw that somebody had made a nuke "Davy Crockett" joke. For about 10 seconds I had this dialog with myself in my head "That can't be real. But could it? But it can't. Davy Crockett? How can that be real. I'm the world's dumbest man - I'll google." I still can't believe they named it Davy Crockett.
You could apparently theoretically make an nuclear hand grenade using californium, but it's completely impractical since you would need 2,7 kg of it, while the yearly production is below 1 g and it have halflife of 2,6 year.
And there's a small caveat that a man throwing such a grenade would be inevitably caught in the blast.
Carrying an ultra light nuclear device stripped from all possible parts to make it throwable also wouldn't help the health of user, but it's not like Uncle Sam ever cared.
the US deployed backpack-sized nuclear weapons to Europe for decades as part of a stay-behind Gladio type operation, whose intent was to detonate nukes guerilla style in a Soviet-overrun Europe

There was also a plan during the cold war in case of war where US would nuke every transport node in Poland (that is basically every city above 20000 inhabitants) to block Soviet and Polish armies from reinforcing East Germany. And of course it didn't plan to bomb even East Germany itself, they are not Slavs after all.
they are not Slavs after all
It's like these plans were written by former nazis or something 
Definitely not the Prussian junkers who would want lands back, just slightly radioactive from all the fallout being blown from Polish Wastelands.
TBH, some highway interchanges in FRG built in 1960s included slots for a nuclear device to completely level all infrastructure around.
Let's also consider the stances of those countries on a nuclear first strike:
For fun, the other countries with nukes:
My guess is it spikes as everyone pumps up MIC stocks and then craters when ships start sinking the next day
New talking point to get bigger defense contracts just dropped. And he has another one:
"I think we’re in an age when nuclear deterrent is actually less effective because the West is very unlikely to use anything like a nuclear bomb, whereas our adversaries might," he added. "Where you have technological parity but moral disparity, the actual disparity is much greater than people think."
Karp continued: "In fact, given that we have parity technologically but we don’t have parity morally, they have a huge advantage."
Imagine thinking the US has the moral high ground, and that having the moral high ground is a disadvantage.
He claims the West is too moral to effectively fight these opponents, who would use unscrupulous means.
Hahaha what the fuck?
It’s just pure vibes. The Middle Eastern wars never happened. Or maybe actually it was China that did all that.
The US wouldn’t stand a chance against all three at once. Delusional moron.
I recently read a super weird essay written in 2017 2007 by the other Palantir founder, Peter Thiel, called 'The Straussian Moment' - and it's wild how they're still talking about some of the exact same things.
For anyone wanting insight into the particular brand of fascism coming out of silicon valley these days, it's worth a read.
Losing two wars simultaneously in Iraq and Afghanistan wasn't good enough, we need to lose three instead
That one scene from Office Space where he asks his neighbor what his dream is but he says, "Shit man, losing three wars at the same time"
Eh, they accomplished their objectives (enriching the MIC and oil companies). I don't really consider that a loss.
Short term success vs long term losses. Yeah they made some profits during the war, but they would have preferred these countries to be allied so they can siphon more off over time
the U.S. is unable to dictate terms to Yemen but this dullard thinks it can fight two nuclear-armed states (both of which have demonstrably better production capacity) and a major regional power all at the same time
Select CEO mode
Yeah, every time an empire has been in major decline, they've just fought a massive war with all of their biggest enemies simultaneously and it just works out fine for them.

Palantir is CIA funded. I believe wholeheartedly that they will a try to start up a new cold war..
It came from In-q-tel so it's basically 100% CIA
Companies that are controlled by the CIA can't help but say dumb shit. Look at notepad++ and Proton as two examples.
