    For example: a mistaken belief that they were being targeted. The book The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States: A Speculative Novel describes such a scenario. Chilling. https://www.amazon.de/-/en/Jeffrey-Lewis/dp/1328573915/

    The founder of that site, Jeffrey Lewis, recently published "The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States: A Speculative Novel". Well worth reading IMO. https://www.amazon.com/Commission-Report-Nuclear-Attacks-Aga...

    I read that a few weeks ago. Quiet good. A similar subject is: The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States by Jeffrey Lewis Note this explicitly features President Trump and various real-life politicians and portrays Trump negatively. So if you are a fan of his probably avoid.

    There are 2 speculative fiction books about nuclear war unfolding in present time. Both feature usage of the 'football'. The 'commission report' is my recommendation out of the two: The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States [0] Nuclear War: A Scenario [1] [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_2020_Commission_Report_on_...

    …concerns that some boastful and bellicose messaging from him might be misinterpreted by adversaries and that triggers a nuclear exchange. This is the plot of the speculative fiction novel titled "The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against The United States" by Dr Jeffrey Lewis for example. > I don't think that U.S. corruption is something to be ignored either. Thorrez's comment is correct. It appears that you mean "corruption" in a different sense than…

    A similar book of this category may be The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States which describes how a series of events, which have separately happened in the past, may lead to NK launching nukes. But it is not framed as the irrational actions of a mad dictator, but a series of coincidences…

    …the public just the bland courtesies and assurances! The US president and vice president have come across as impulsive 4-year-olds throwing toys out of a sandbox. I used to think that the novel "The 2020 Commission Report on the North Korean Nuclear Attacks Against the United States" ([1]), which ridicules Donald Trump quite a bit, was overdoing it for humor. Now I'm not so sure. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_2020_Commission_Report_on_...
