Ok so Iran wants to go nuclear. I agree any country going nuclear is pretty bad. But please will someone explain to me why Iran shouldn't be allowed nuclear weapons yet other countries should be allowed to have them?
What's our stance really saying? That nuclear weapons are bad in general? No it's sadly not. What it is saying is we don't want you to have them because we don't like you.
I'm not against a nuclear deterrant. I believe it's an important part of our defense. But we cannot hope to keep it, and not allow proliferation. We either give them up, or we put up with increased risk. We can't be two faced about this!
NO country should be allowed nuclear armament.
ReplyDeleteHmm - it's like the playschool approach to politics. :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd their country IS bigger than ours... So maybe they should be allowed.
(Line up for army - no girls allowed!)
AMEN to your post!
ReplyDeleteI have often wondered the same thing. Especially living in the U.S. and seeing how our government is constantly regulating (well, banning) the access of other countries to nuclear weapons technology...AT THE SAME TIME as we are developing even more! America appears as nothing more than a fat child who wants to take a cookie jar to school yet not allow the other kids to have any.
Nice blog. Thank you for your visit to mine.
