You simply don't have any power or say in American nuclear policy, and I already understand your POV. Therefore, I won't waste too much effort trying to influence your opinion. You have been clear where you stand. And while I respect your opinion, I highly disagree. I don't mind discussing this topic with you, but we've gone around in circles too many times on it. And you're simply not going to change this American's mind about how I expect our policy makers to act on this issue with our deterrent forces.

I sense a bit of UScentrism here. You see, this discussion, at least in my book, is about world conditions in general. This includes China, Russia, Britian, France, Israel, Pakistan, India, Brazil, North Korea and all the other countries and groups in possession of the bomb. I doubt all these have the right to vote in the US either.
Agreed to the rest, however.
