A coda to this story is when Brzezinski was asked in an interview a few years ago what he would have recommended Carter do. Brzezinski responded that, if Carter had asked, then he would have recommended a proportionate response with a little bit extra on top as retaliation. twitter.com/nuclearanthro/…

#NuclearWarOnHalloween That time in 1979 somebody put a training tape in at NORAD & it got mistaken for a Soviet nuclear attack on US. National Security Advisor Brzezinski was <1 minute from waking up Carter to nuke Russkies when situation ended. https://t.co/r6TcoRrbos https://t.co/XXfoVK3mfQ

That’d be the same Brzezinksi who deliberately manufactured the Afghan/Soviet war, BTW. Mika’s dad.
