Hey, guys, the latest cheerful news I’ve found tells us that the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists in Chicago “have added climate change to the prospect of nuclear annihilation as the greatest threats to humankind,” which they have expressed graphically and dramatically by setting their “Doomsday Clock” two minutes closer to midnight. However, a related article suggests that one of the effects of widespread nuclear bombing—besides killing millions of people and generally fucking everything up—might be a global cooling, or “nuclear winter.” So I just had a great idea—the sort of thing our glorious and brilliant national leaders might dream up. Why not deliberately start a nuclear war that will involve exploding lots of bombs that will then reverse global warming by bringing about global cooling? Isn’t that a neat solution? I’m surprised the Mad Emperor’s advisors haven’t thought of it themselves. It’s just the sort of thing that would appeal to them.
Or maybe they have, and they’re not telling us. . . .

I think your second hypothesis is probably true. Why else:
1. Wreck the tracking network Plame was part of
2. Ignore/abet Korea
3. Harrass and threaten Iraq
4. Suck up to Russia endlessly
5. Weaken our conventional military so that only nukes are viable response.
