Since we don't have nuclear weapons, please guarantee you won't use yours on us.

Well at least these loser nations (most of them) get the idea that they might be in trouble if they attack the United States OR one of our key allies!!

My response: ** GOOD **

[Paul_Denton]

Since we don't have nuclear weapons, please guarantee you won't use yours on us.

To the loser countries that made this plea. We WILL use them if we have to, such as if you use chemical, biological, genetic, radiological or nuclear weapons against us.

U.S. rejects idea of ban on 9-11 type of attacks........

Long Live Kellogg-Briand !!!!!!!!!!!!

Not all nuclear powers agree. The Russians say they're willing to negotiate on NSAs, and China, which favors total nuclear disarmament of all other nations but themselves, sees negative security assurances as a valuable interim measure.

I think these sentences in the article needed correction.

[Political Junkie Too]

What's next? How about -- Since we don't have trillion dollar economies, please guarantee you won't use yours against us.

But now lesser powers are finding another way to build a shield against a nuclear threat: the "nuclear weapons-free zones" coming into force over large swaths of the globe.

Boy that’s some shield. I am sure that ICBMs will be deterred from entering such a free zone. What world do these people live in?

...plea heard from the conference floor, from nation after nation, seems simple: Since we don't have nuclear weapons, please guarantee you won't use yours on us.

What a golden opportunity!

Of course, all these countries know that the US would not use a nuke on them in the pre-911 world. Or we would have already.

What they are saying is, "we have devised a way to use surrogate killers in our place to kill and murder thousands of Americans. But it's not us. We can't help what they do".

(We just educate them, indoctrinate them, fill them with hate, arm them, finance them, offer infrastructure and support) but its not us. They don't wear uniforms, so you can't find us.

That's OK isn't it?

The answer? NO!

I may not live to see it, but the problem of mass murders will persist until we promise, and actually deliver, one nuke per capital of every member of the muslim brotherhood supporting continued international terrorism.
For each terrorist event.

Want to see how quickly all those terrorist cells can be found and destroyed?

[Publius6961]

Many disarmament experts believe the treaty negotiators of the 1960s erred by not embedding such "negative security assurances" - against nuclear attacks on non-nuclear states - in the original treaty, making the guarantees binding under international law.

I strongly agree that the negotiators erred in the 60s, but not for the reasons the murdering animals would like to suggest.
I would have insisted that any asymmetric attacks by surrogate out-of-uniform killers would render any promises null and void. In their entirety.

If only the bad guys have nukes, then. . . .

If only the good guys have nukes, then. . . .

Never mind. It doesn't work here.

We don't cut deals with terrorists.

[whereasandsoforth]

This would be a grand time for the Bush administration to make a worldwide public statement that still today, as throughout it's history, the rest of the world has nothing to fear and much to gain from The United States of America. Leave us alone and be our friend and the world is a rosy place. The USA is never the aggressor. Any decision to use any USA weapons is already in the hands of the rest of the world, so they should be dealing, bartering and policing with themselves. The USA doesn't need to be signing away anything.

But this is sure designed to make it sound like the world must cower in fear that the USA is on the verge of annihilating them. That fits the liberals agenda and must be promoted at the Useless Natterers at all cost.

[Paul_Denton]

The Nuclear Non Poliferation Treaty is like the Geneva Convention: Just about every other country except our own ignores it. While we reduce our nuclear stockpile China building up theirs and handing the stuff off to countries like Pakistan, North Korea, Iran and so on. FranSS gave Iraq is nuclear reactor for Saddam's nculear program. Russia is very complacent and backs Iran.

Foolish people think a "protocol" will protect them.

" I bring you peace, peace in our time.(waving protocol
over head)"

One notes that it's the communist states that want to
get US to agree to this.

I ain't buying.

[SIDENET]

We promise not to use nukes...

Until we decide to use nukes.

How's that for a promise?

:-P

[adam_az]

This is dumb for the same reasons gun control is dumb.

No wonder the internationalist lefties don't get it.

Kerry woulda given away the farm, if given the chance.

The faux "hawk" Hillary would nod in agreement.
