They are a deterrence to war. I believe only the U.S. has used them. Countries that have nukes will not be militarily invaded, because the other side does not want to be nuked.

Having them can act as a deterrent to others of attacking you. And if you are dealing limp wristed leaders of super power nations u can use nuclear weapons to leverage "financial aid"

All these POS countries should be screaming they have nukes then.

So if having nukes are for prevention of invasion. Why would another country stop another from having them?

It must be on their agenda to invade one day.

Why would one country stop another country from having nuclear weapons? Are you serious? You can't figure out a probable answer for that yourself? You're in over your head but since I like you I'll help you. I might be over simplifying it but it might be one country is intending on using them on you when they get them.

And to add a point your comment about every little country should claim to have them, just because you claim something doesn't mean anyone believes you. Be reasonable or change to FB

LOL quite an exposing answer of thought process, saying one country with nukes ends another's chances of having them because they wish to invade them latter on, most larger countries invade way before nukes are even discussed, makes no sense to invade a wasted country of no use with nuke residue all over it !

There are several countries that have nukes who don't go around destroying progress on others having them simply of the fact that it would immediately cause such a cataclysm to this world no one would be ever the same or anything else !

Yet just having them keeps things in perspective that no one really wants to used them until some small country, always feeling the need for attention [Iran] decides to start building them for at first reason peaceful means only until they need to show that they now have the capability to use them in tactual warfare after all. Which immediately threatens their worst enemy !

Well I could imagine what their first strike could be knowing the history of Iran and Israel, so the big boys gather up and talk and decide who is going to watch who and how far it goes before more words of decisions are made, while the little guy grow's so threatened as to take the step of destroying that hidden fact they knew all along !!

Thus setting up more showman's ship of capability which is really lacking since they only have ground control and no air support.

This just one example of what others might, could or would do, making your reasoning abit tainted of progressive thinking !

So just the trustworthy countries get to have nukes?

Nuclear non proliferation treaty. Canada’s nuclear deterrent is based on its membership in NATO’s nuclear sharing arrangement. Under this arrangement, Canada has agreed to host and maintain US nuclear weapons on its soil, primarily at the Canadian Forces Base in Cold Lake, Alberta. These weapons are not owned or controlled by Canada, but are instead provided by the United States as part of its nuclear deterrent.

Do u believe every country has the right to have them?

I believe in fairness and equality.

I also believe In using the tools one has.

If you have nukes, use them.

Jp so if you have guns use them right!

Ya

Hey Dirt!

Is that the same way Israel acquired all their nukes? I’ve read that Israel has over 100 nuclear warheads. I was curious how they got them or if they made them on their own? That’s a lot of enriched Uranium to source.

They never signed the treaty. The U.S. never tried to enforce it on them either. They are special.

They are, the hills are called Zagros and Albroz.

Who gives a ratts ......if no weapons of mass destruction were found ? The genocidal desert monkeys needed dead anyways

This is a pretty decent article on the Israel/Iran deal. LINK

A powerful offense is a good defense.
If Iran develops a nuclear weapon they would use it on Israel as they have plainly stated their goal is to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.

Spoken like a true Texan. Could care less if the rest of the country has to pay through the nose for fuel as long as they make more money in the patch. Israel can fight their own wars, they are no concern of ours.

There are some serious consequences to the world geopolitics if radical Muslims have control of the Middle East and if nothing else Israel is a great proxy for the US in that region.

As a Christian who believes in the Bible and Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior - the nation of Israel is a concern of mine. As an American who understands what One Nation Under God means, I disagree with you whole heartedly. Our nation has been greatly blessed as we have allied ourself with Israel - it is sad to see folks today not understand the depth of this relationship.
