News Slightly worried (slightly!?!) by this piece by Lawrence Freeman from The Independent. He's already declared that this is The Third World War (which I know I implied a few days ago but still): "In one critical respect the basis for the Third World War as traditionally conceived has not gone away. The major powers all possess substantial nuclear arsenals, and if events got out of control and just a fraction of the available weaponry was unleashed, the ultimate catastrophe could still be upon us."
