The goal is to make us defenseless. It will result in our cities being nuked.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Those commie piggies sure do love their trophies.

[Vendome]

Hey!

I know that guy!

[Gene Eric]

That’s right, science is not political. /s

[Gay State Conservative]

If you want peace,prepare for war.

[DoughtyOne]

Time to start deporting folks who make it their goal in life to destroy our military capabilities. I don’t particularly care if they are private citizens or our elected officials either.

[DoughtyOne]

Exactly!

[DoughtyOne]

And if you want war, use a while flag and an empty arsenal as your main plan.

We’ve got 3 more years under BHO. He just might succeed in the time remaining on his watch in reducing our nuclear weapon stockpile to zero. I guess all those retired generals and admirals across the land are resigned to this.

"We’ve got 3 more years under BHO. He just might succeed in the time remaining on his watch in reducing our nuclear weapon stockpile to zero."

Perhaps he'll go beyond that and allow potential nuclear adversaries station their warheads and delivery systems in America. He might argue the fuel savings would help reduce carbon emissions.

Obama himself has made public he holds the same goal.

It is not peace that drives this initiative.

[a fool in paradise]

It’s our fault anyway. We make them hate us. < /liberal academic logic >

There will come a point when enemies see the risk of a first strike against the US as in their favor. This will come when the attackers believe that they can destroy most of the retaliatory nuclear weapons before they can be launched. Disarming any more is only bring doomsday that much closer.

If anything the US should build up its antimissile shield and increase the number of nuclear weapons available for counter attack. Mutually assured destruction is the only policy that will make the world peaceful.

[DuncanWaring]

There was a time that was true.

Unfortunately, the Muslim “Twelvers” seem to believe that if they can institute global chaos, (and what could be more chaotic than global thermonuclear war), they can summon-up the guy taking a nap at the bottom of some well somewhere, and he will convert the entire world to Islam.

[2001convSVT]

M.A.D. is still needed to keep the enemies at bay, Islam isn't the only threat or the most dangerous potential enemy.

[DuncanWaring]

That’s certainly true; we do have rational enemies for whom MAD is an effective deterrent.

But it’s not infallible.

What guy?
