Trump Terminates Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty > New Arms Race

"We are fast approaching the date of official termination of the Intermediate-range Nuclear Force (INF) Treaty on Friday 02 August. The loss of INF, which for more than 30 years served as a core element of European security, throws the precarious state of nuclear arms control into sharp relief.
There will be significant international attention paid to the demise of this landmark treaty, . . and the future of international arms control writ large. . . "
That's the warning just two hours ago from the European Leadership Network
“We should all be aware that if the INF treaty collapses and the US and Russia allow the current political tension to undermine the possibility of extending new START—which must be agreed before February 2021— the US and Russia will return to an unregulated nuclear arms competition that has not been seen since the early days of the Cold War”

Visions of future past flash back to haunt us from this comedy produced in 1964.
At that point-in-time your MesaZona blogger's past life part-time job while in high school was as an usher at a college movie theater, earning $1.25 per hour. 
One of the benefits in that position was the opportunity to watch every movie appearing in the big screen - at a tender young age this was an eye-opening introduction to the genius of Stanley Kubrick . . .  and now some 50+ years on it serves as a visual reminder of some current "news" in the first year of fear and chaos here in the United States circa 2017-2018
