I can never understand why the developed western counties who already have nuclear weapons call emerging countries who strive to develop their own, rogue states and threaten them with the most drastic consequences unless they stop. North Korea and Iran just want what the big boys have, so is it just a case of “do as I say, not as I do”, ? This philosophy doesn’t work with children so I can’t see it working with Mr.Kim!
I think the idea is that the more nuke states out there the more likely they'll get used. Even though trump is mentally unstable he is arguably less of a tyrant then kim.
@rogueflyer Yes, of course bad as Trump is there is no comparison. Trump is mentally unstable Kim is a despot. That was not my argument however. Why do we have the right to say which nations should and shouldn’t have nuclear weapons?
@rogueflyer Then why has he stated he would use them????
@Marionville I guess I'm saying it would be better if no country had nukes but they do. I'm a realist not an idealist. Until we can eliminate them let's not expand the members. It's not just our policy it's a UN policy.
@Marionville, @Marine I think it's because he is uninformed and unqualified for the position.
@rogueflyer I am not saying that North Korea should have nuclear weapons, I think it is horrifying that they do. I am just asking why it is that countries that are already nuclear states feel that they have the right to tell others that they can’t have them. As long as the big boys have them tin pot dictator states will want them too......it is a male status thing I believe.
Never believed Fuhrer Trump when he lied and lied and lied.
