dont be silly dude. once the first nuke is dropped the story is over. there is russia, india, pakistan (!), india (!!) and more. i cant c why u think nukes r save in the us with this news right before ur eyes. bush is fucking insane if he only thinks about using them.
Who is being silly? Only two nuclear bombs has ever been used in war, first and last time. The # is probaly a lot higher for testing but lets face facts - more incidents have occured with nuclear power plants...Do you recognize the frase...
It is so unlikely that it never happened... If you do, good for you, and if you don't... Nuclear weapons are used to demonstrate power, they were constructed for use in war but after they destroyed Hiroshima, Japan in 1964...
Correction in 1945 their destructive powers were shown to the world. All countires and goverments are aware of the threat, but they do not intend to use them against each other. The only problem with nuclear weapons is that wanna-be super nations, I am very confident in the fact that you can all figure out who they are, try to show thier powers by developing nuclear weapons.
American president Gerorge Bush is not saying that he is going to use nuclear weapons, the congress would newer give him a go on that one, it would probaly be neccesary with a unamyous vote - all in favor, for him to send a tiny missil anywhere. The US has the largest nuclear arsenal in the world, a lot bigger then the russian counterpart which is second biggest. The reaming countries have small nuclear arsenals and should there for not be taken as a real threat, with Iraq being the capital exception. War today isn't the same it was fifty years ago, they fought with guns, we fight with money.
If country A ensists on developing and keeping nuclear weapons country B is going to make sure that they can't countinue to do so. With the risk of insulting others, Iraq, India, Pakistan, North Corea and China have no reason to keep a nuclear arsenal, and should not be trusted to keep them. India and China have the largest population in the world but are a very small part of cunsumption, 10 % of all people consume 80 % of all merchendise. They are not a economical super powers nor warfare ones... Iraq, Pakistan have their own problems and should take care of thier people instead of spending billions of dollars on research, imagine how many camels they could buy for the enormous amount of money the have spent on nuclear weapons.
And not to mention the threat they impose if they were to come in the hands of terrorists, which all come from a certain point of the world and all have one thing in common - religion... The only country I would trust my life to is the US, Russia is very close to being safe on me scale, they other countries do not have the security needed for safe keeping.
If something were to go off,
Houston, we have a problem...
