I Would Rather... (Nuclear Question)
 

Re: I Would Rather... (Nuclear Question)
 

I honestly don't care. The threat of certain "bad" countries have nuclear weapons is incredibly overrated imo. If we all have nukes then it is not a big deal. Iran and NK won't consider using them.

But I do know why politicians make such a big deal about it. Fear wins elections.

Re: I Would Rather... (Nuclear Question)
 

You are making an assumption that all leaders are rational and that they will not use nukes because of retaliation. What about some crazed leader who wants to go out in a blaze of glory?

Also, what about countries that will filter a nuke to terrorists?

Wow you gotta love a left winger speaking honestly about his feelings....

Ya, North Koreas leadership would never consider using them , I mean that would be like starving half your coutry while spending money to develop something youll never use....Oh wait a minute...hmmm

Thank G-d we have a strong president like GWB in office right now this type of thinking will get us nuked.

I guess we will just have to deal.

I voted that no country should have them, but my second choice would be that each country has one.

Kneejerk, conditioned by Fox et al. and simple minded, as displayed by you daily here.

How about: \'only modern democracies have nukes\'
 

that'd be my choice. there is far too much risk of one lone nut popping off a bomb without consideration of his citizens. (Kim Jong Il comes to mind...)

This is an incredibly situational question. I'll let others elaborate. (AKA, I'm too lazy to post more)
