Comment on If Europe and the rest of the worlds response it to make weapons of war, someone will eventually insure they are all used.

  Do you have car home or renter’s insurance? If so, when are you planning on setting fire to your home?

  Yes, I know it’s different that’s what I specified non-perishable. Milk is perishable.

  You make weapons of war with the intent of them being used for war.

  All tools are made with the intent for being used for their intended purpose …

    Missiles aren’t made to last forever.

      They are made to last for quite a while. Look at Russia, they are still going through equipment and ammunitions made for the cold war. So yeah, as long wars keep happening, there is a good chance weapons will eventually get used. And it doesn’t look like wars are going to stop happening anytime soon.

      Also weapons being decomissioned (destroyed without being used) or ageing equipment being converted for training/practice is also quite common. So no, not all weapons will eventually get used in war.

        Would Russia be as aggressive as they are today if they didn’t have stockpiles from the Cold War?

      Funny example that, considering how many missiles do go unused. Are you disagreeing with your own post then?

        No, I’m not trying to win a semantics argument but if you wish, you win semantics. Here’s you’re semantics trophy:
