There are a few countries we should worry about because they have the hydrogen bomb.
North Korea, Pakistan, Russia, The U.S., and Israel.

The U.S. has already used it.

Iran doesn't have it. Still, the Israeli government wants to bomb them.

Jim Carroll is just expressing what people are not willing to look at, being scared shitless that one of these loose cannon countries would use it if they couldn't make do with the lesser weapons. War has a way of escalating.

Don't tell me that the heads of state of these countries are in their right minds when it comes to deploying their militaries.
