Now how do you feel about arbitrary use of nuclear weapons?

Question

Dont change your stance just because Korea has the bomb. I remember who said what and if I dont I can always look it up.

Answer 1

I'm against it. I like being alive.

Answer 2

One cannot beat Guerilla warfare look at Angola, Viet Nam, Rhodesia, French Algeria, the American Colonies or the Israelis.


Bombing Iran, North Korea would be the end. Bombing Iran would contaminate their and possible other middle East oil supplies; it would solidify the Islamic Movement it would make every other third world country turn against us (so to make sure we could not get the jump on them) we would have daily assassinations and bombing just like they have in Russia and Baghdad.?


God I hope not they kicked our butts the first time and will this time. Don't you all know weapons including nukes mean nothing if you have enough people? During Nam, the NVA overran base after base and all the weapons in our arsenal could not stop them. In October 1950, China entered the Korea war and kicked our butts. They dared us to drop the atomic bombs on them. They knew their population was so large that for us to be able to put a dent in it would have caused so much atomic energy to have been expended the world as we knew it would have ceased to exist. Well, they have even more people now; we would have a hard time using nukes on North Korea, as due to their proximity to South Koreas we would be killing an ally. The North Koreas rolled over the South in 1950 but would have a harder time this time but would prevail. Japan has a non-aggression Constitution but I believe they would have to come to the aid of the South. If not and the North wins and eventually rolling over Japan. I don't think American could stop them this time, too much political correctness plus big brother China. No, North Korea would not be someone anyone should wake up!

No, only kids, literates and that bunch of professional losers believe that garbage of aggression. Have you ever wondered why China is everyone friend and why everyone in a political situation listens to them and takes their advise?


God Bless you and the Southern People.

Answer 3

Arbitrary? I would hope that no country would view the use of a nuclear weapon arbitrarily. But, if you've been alive for more than 20 years, you'll know that even we here in the United States have played the game of proliferation (regardless of what those who call us hypocrites think). I don't think anyone with access to history, who can see the damage to Hiroshima and Nagasaki would argue the ill effects of truly powerful Nuclear weapons like some of the larger countries possess. Let's all hope no one has to ever use them again. I spent my growing up years in the ends of the cold war. I don't want my kids to have to sit in shelters next to outdated drums of water and stale crackers like we did during our "tornado drills".

Answer 4

BAD IDEA.

We ALL lose.

END of discussion.

It will escalate.

Can YOU say, "firestorm"? Can YOU say, "nuclear winter"?

NO NUKES. NO ONE "WINS."

Do NOT get this one wrong. This is NOT a pissing-match. "Who is/was responsible" will NOT matter. There will be NO ONE left to debate the merits of the various political beliefs.

We ALL die. Any questions??

How many of us (people) will have the time for, or interest in, John Locke texts, or the philosophy of guerilla warfare, when we are ALL diseased, dying, burned, starving, freezing, and fighting tooth and claw, simply to survive another minute, day, or week? Remember "competition," and "survival of the fittest"? On an animal level?

Are you able to simply assess what the reality would actually be like?

Philopsophy would have NO place in a tooth-and-nail struggle to avoid starvation!

It is SUICIDE. The death of the Life Of The Mind, the death of LIFE.

NO NUKES!

Answer 5

"….the law…cannot interpose to secure my life from present force, which if lost is capable of no reparation, permits me my own defense and the right of war, a liberty to kill the aggressor, because the aggressor allows not time to appeal to our common judge, nor the decision of law, for remedy in a case where the mischief may be irreparable."

"He that shall oppose an assault only with a shield to receive the blows, or in any more respectful posture, without a sword in his hand to abate the confidence and force of the assailant, will quickly be at an end of his resistance…..This will always be the event of such an imaginary resistance, where men may not strike again. He, therefore, who may resist must be allowed to strike. And then let our author, or anybody else, join a knock on the head or a cut on the face with as much reverence and respect as he thinks fit He that can reconcile blows and reverence may, for aught I know, deserve for his pains a civil, respectful cudgelling wherever he can meet with it."

I translate John Locke's words in modern terms as. If you are threatened with death, the you may deal out death. You don't need to wait for a decision by some other authority. Because if you wait then you will be dead and the decision will not matter. You may strike with as much force as you have available to prevent your attacker from succeeding. If you don't understand that you should be beaten with a stick.

Answer 6

Arbitrary use of nuclear weapons is a violation of the International Law because use of arms must be under UN sanctioned policies and authorization.

Answer 7

The US started it! Now they get all pissed/scared when other countries do it! Shouldn't have started the arms race in the first place!

If there is ever a nuclear war, the US will be responsible since they are the pioneers of the arms race!

Answer 8

WHEN THE TIME COMES IT'S OUR CHOICE NOT ANYONE ELSE'S PERIOD! ARBITRATION FOR THE USE OF A NUCLEAR WEAPON IS STUPID.. AND IT WOULD ONLY HAPPEN TO END A WAR! LIKE IT WAS THE FIRST TIME! WE DON'T NEED PERMISSION FROM ANYONE AT ALL!

Answer 9

the N Koreans are using grenades compared to what we have. nuke them first see if they fire back.

Answer 10
