Exactly. This "We can have them, but you cant" situation is just plain silly if you ask me.

Stalin had the bomb. And you know why don't we (as in the US, UK, Russia) stop dismantling our bombs and just hand them out like candy! There's a reason some people don't like the idea of Iran, Iraq or insert 3rd world county here, having nuclear capability.

Yeah and that dislike is directly proportional to the chances that the nuke will be used, either by the government that builds it or the shadowy extremist group they give it to.

What is plain silly is that some people are supportive of a brutal dictatorship getting nuclear weapons.

In the name of PEACE, of all things.
"Peace for our time", huh?
