Rumsfeld wants more Nuclear "stuff"

[Jonbo298]

WASHINGTON (AFP) - US Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has asked for the restoration of a research program designed to create a new type of nuclear weapons capable of destroying hardened underground targets, a Pentagon official said.

and the final 2 paragraphs speak for what I'm thinking

However, International Atomic Energy Agency director, Mohamed ElBaradei, warned this week that the "bunker buster" program was sending "the wrong message" and could hinder international non-proliferation efforts.

"You can't tell everyone 'don't touch nuclear weapons' while continuing to build them," ElBaradei said in an interview with The Washington Post newspaper and Newsweek magazine.

So, what do you think? Should the US be allowed to make more nuclear type weapons while trying to tell other countries they can't?

[GameMaster]

The U.S. should not be allowed. If they do, I would gladly encourage other countries to do so also regardless of the what the U.S. tells them.

[Typhoid]

No.

Plain and simple, No.


They are being hypocrites already for doing so.

I actually think its slightly amusing.


But why would you want Nuclear weapons anyways? To defend yourself right.

Well, if America has Nuclear Weapons, the countries opposed to them will build some too, so they can defend themselves against the U.S Nukes, but then the US builds more.

But I dont think the US will ever get rid of their Nukes. IF, IF every other country in the world has no Nukes. Not one. The US would still try to be able to have theirs. By saying something like "We want to protect the world incase a threat comes." or something along those lines.

I think its stupid. They have enough Nuclear warheads to easily blow the world up. Why would you even want that? Seriously.

This all seems like those guys that wear gold chains and drive fast cars.

F*** fast cars and gold, Nuclear Weapons are the worlds biggest pee-pee extension.

I saw on the news footage of a bunker underneath Saddam's palace that was untouched by even our bunker buster bombs. It was, according to the news, almost as sofisticated as the strongest U.S bunkers.

I think that making more effective bombs while disassembling our more obsolete bombs is the right manuver. We do have a huge excess, in my opinion.

[Neo]

Why disassemble them when we could use them? I think we should have jumped at the opportunity to finally take care of the Indonesia problem after they were softened up by the tsunami. A full-scale carpet bombing operation of Bhandi Aceh would have put us in a powerful bargaining position. Those tiny islands had it coming too.

What your saying is crazy, Neo. The United States has always been a tyranny to the people in that area. You know, we probably actually caused the tsunami through nuclear testing with Isreal.

Bush should take responcibility for what he has done and personally go to all the victims of the tsunami and apologize. Then, he should give all the nukes to the UN, because we shouldn't have control of all those weapons.

Asked for?

Asked for?

FUNDING FOR THE MINI NUKES WAS IN THE LAST BUDGET!

Goddamn. They build it first, then ask if it's ok, like they really give a **** what anyone says.

This is so retarded, unless you're going to actually advocate the use of nuclear weapons, there's no reason to build these other than to further strengthen the military industrial complex while wasting a good chunk of money.


****ers.
