If N-Korea will get it S-Korea and Japan will follow suit. Just like if Iran has one so will the Saudis and maybe Turks. Im starting to think we need one also. |
Why not? Everyone should have some in their arsenal IMHO! They are never going to be used for anything more than to collect dust though.
I can understand the want for nuclear energy and to stop using so much of the worlds precious oil. Maybe if everyone had nuclear energy there would be less demand for the oil? |
 You two must realize that the more countries and groups that have nuclear weapons the more likely that someone will eventually pop one or fifty off right? |
I disagree! I don't think that there is a person in this whole world that would EVER be crazy enough to use them. For starts, the people under the government of that country would most likely take over their government for even thinking about doing something so nuts, secondly no government would be crazy enough to even consider using them in the first place against another nation that has them.
I think most of these smaller countries like N. Korea want them for self protection. They fear that if they are ever attacked or taken over by a larger nation (like the US) that their whole world would have come to an end. If they have nukes then no country would ever be foolish enough to attack them to begin with.
Look at the US and China for example. China has nukes and USA has nukes. We are both afraid of each other because of this and therefore there will NEVER be a fight between us, NEVER!
If one nation doesn't have nukes and the other one does, there is a MUCH GREATER chance of war happening between them.
It's just like fighting. You wouldn't get in a fight with someone you knew could stomp your a-- into the ground. You'd find a way to avoid it. If you knew you could beat them to a bloody pulp then you would!
