We ought to engineer a major conflict between N Korea and Iran and with a bit of luck they will nuke each other. That would only leave Belgium from the "axis of evil" states.

So South Korea has begun it's war games. Nothing as yet from NK. If they rattle the sabre and do nothing, do they not lose face? This would be bad for them as eastern culture is all about saving face at all costs.

Blame the Mericans, they built and used them. WHo can blame other nations for wanting the technology to 'protect themselves'. Part of me stupidly thinks every country should have nukes, so we can all sit down and every nation can speak and be and listened to on an equal level. Who would be a fool to use a nuke when every nation has them? And if someone did, and the whole world went up in nuclear smoke, maybe we as a race deserve it for being so....human? However, the other side of me knows we need to keep them out of the wrong hands. However, I don't also want to see more dodgy wars where many of the selfish and self-centered people of the Western world actually take some enjoyment in seeing another war.....not caring about the many innocent lives being lost (both sides), many of whom want piece like the rest of us.Last edited by SuperZ; 25 July 2010, 15:46.Comment
