The issue is that there are a lot of people on both sides that believe a nuclear war is survivable. Partly due to our namby pamby attitude of reducing our firepower so our SSBNs are not full loaded. Luckily the yanks make up for that but it weakens our overall standing and makes us look weak.

My biggest fear though is a pandemic of some sort. Invisible killers.

Yes, this is now becoming apparent. MAD may not actually be believed in by some of the powers that be, just as there is a school of thought that suggests there would be no such thing as a "nuclear winter". Consider this: there have been 2053 (admitted, that is) nuclear detonations since WW2. Is the earth experiencing a nuclear winter? Is it a radioactive shipwreck? Noooooo.... See this slow-to-get-going-but-eventually-quite-stunning time lapse animation of all 2053 nuclear explosions since 1945:
