Because once someone gets Nuclear Weapons you can't take them away. Because they have nuclear weapons. Letting everyone have nuclear weapons is like creating the political situation before WW1 again.... except instead of a war, it would be armmageddon. To prevent ANY country from developing nuclear weapons be it Iran or Sweeden is a good idea. Though espiecially Iran. |
I think it would be armageddon anyways, with the powers that already have nuclear weapons. For MAD to work though, potentially conflicting powers need to both have nuclear war heads. Of course this really never ceased the violence, it just created a system that needs proxy wars. I agree with you though completely. Although, I can't imagine even a fundamentalist who is a smart politician (i.e. someone who enjoys power and probably the materiality of that power) wanting to destroy him/herself for 'God'. I agree more with the point about someone else getting the weapon (like some poor backwater terrorists) rather than even a rogue 'state' using a nuclear weapon. It's just too risky-or at least that's what I hope to believe.
