People always talk about how terrible the nuclear bomb is and how they wish that it had never been invented in the first place. |

Wow...bradybaker. THis is a new one. Nukes save lives! THe only thing thats stopping us from using nukes is other nukes going off right back. So basically they cancell out and dont deter anyone from doing anything. All other weapons are still there to be used. SO how does this do anything except create the possibility for disaster? |

It does keep people from attacking when you have a nuke but it also causes other problems as well. If the wars it stops makes its worth the rest of the trouble I am not to sure. However if someone does end up using one it will cancel out any positive effect they ever had. |

and Im saying that that wont happen. Nukes cancell each other out but it doesnt stop large scale wars. And thier are large scale wars today, but sicne the battle lines are blurred its harder to tell. The US amongst others, is at war all over the country at once. THe korean war is still going on! But no one wants to talk about that. |

They tell you this in history class--- It's called balance of power. So many people have so many nukes they're afraid to use them. This in turn stops wars, but correct, there still is the potential. The political climate is so volatile nowadays whole countries could be destroyed at a push of a button. |

Tyranny comes in a uniform.
How many wars have we fought againt people who have a nuclear bombs? |
|
I say nuke the world and start over. |

Existance has no beggining nor end, but will always have purpose.
Ever since the first nuke was used in WWII, everyone has seen the effects and knows that if they bomb and destroy a country, that country will do the same back if they have nukes (assured mutual destruction). The scary thing is that if someone ever developes an effective way to stop an enemy's nuke before it hits, they will be able to hold the world hostage with their own nukes and everyone will be screwed. |

Yeah, that's why the USA's Star Wars Missile Defence system is a bit scary because it will upset the delicate balance of power. |

I'm not sure if they're working on the starwars defense system anymore, but the US is still developing a ground-based laser cannon to shoot down missiles, mortars and unmanned aircraft (I think there are going to be some international laws to ban use of the laser directly against human targets and manned craft). I heard back in 2001 they were able to shoot down a missile with it, which is good progress, but I have doubts as to whether this weapon will really be that effective against nuclear warheads, since those can be launched with thousands of decoy duds and the laser probably wouldn't be able to shoot down all of them before they hit the ground. |

And note that if the Nuclear Bomb is effectively...defused, you could say, that is a decent defence is made against it, this balance of power could be tipped dramatically and a war could break out. |

Nukes haven't ended the world-wars; they've just paused them for a while. Eventually a serious nuclear weapon will fall into the hands of someone without a national allegiance--without a geographical center to "nuke back." |

If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

Well obviously if it were that simple I'd pick a world without war. But it's not that simple. Do you truly believe that the possibility of achieving world peace is realistic? |

the star wars missile defense system was ment to be a space-to ground laser system, that would render missiles harmless, at least, all missiles above 20 (or was it 200?) feet above ground level. They have allready built a plane that can do this, and it was expensive, and i think there is only one in existence, maybe two... also, we have found out, that terrorists may be useing "left overs" from local nuclear power plants to create fission bombs, it is rumored that they will sail these bombs into the 12 biggest harbors in america, and detonate them, effectively screwing most of the city, poisoning of water, irradiating the air, and blowing up all of the near-ocean buildings. The us cant retalliate because (as the only megapower in the world) we arent cut out for fighting small groups of people, especially in gurella warfare, (excuse the spelling, i dont feel like correcting it, and my hands are REALY cold) also, it wouldnt really matter, even if we were pit against a country like, say, russia, or germany again. we dont have any active nuclear weapons to begin with, because the stuff to keep the nukes "alive" is in short supply... so all our nukes are effectively dead.... |
