He’s right.
Although we still have the warheads, only about 10% of the 30,000 weapons we once had are ready, weaponized, and not in storage. Mating them to a missile takes a long amount of time for each warhead and we have a finite number of engineers available to do the job.
And Obama, in his own words, wants to further reduce our arsenal from the 3,300 we have down to the “high hundreds,” which will practically INVITE a first strike.
God save us.
My thoughts exactly.
If Obama has his way the days of the US as a military superpower are numbered.
Nuclear weapons and the guarantee that anyone that uses them on us would be wiped off the face of the earth has kept the peace.
Not good will. Not good intention. Those are just another term for naivety, and failure to accept the true nature of the world.
Any treaty eliminating OUR nuclear weapons will only invite any number of evil actors in this world to exploit our weakness, to our peril. We cannot expect anyone to keep treaties but ourselves and any country that truly believes in the rule of law, but they are few and they are our allies.
Buy hey, I’m getting tired of trying to defend liberals from themselves, and they are generally concentrated in the biggest targets of such an attack. If Obama is re-elected they deserve whatever happens, but a nuclear first strike will make Pearl Harbor and 911 look trivial in comparison.
All I know is we can’t let obamski be able to have more flexibility on this issue, when he said this to Medvedev to relay to Putin.
