Should the United States or anyone else be trusted with nuclear weapons? Lets face it, as we look at history we can see that man is basically evil. Throughout history man has never failed to attack his neighbor in search of more power. This leads me to believe that it is a scary concept that so many countries have nuclear weapons. There is however a treaty in place between these countries which states that none of them will use the nuclear weapons. However a treaty is only good if members abide by that treaty. I am not fearful for any sane person to have nuclear weapons because a chemically and mentally sane person would never utilize a nuclear weapon because it would be suicide. The use of one modern nuclear weapon which is thousands of times more powerful than the atomic weapons used on Japan would be the end of the world as we know it. It would ignite a chain reaction of nuclear war. Therefore I am not fearful of Russia having nuclear weapons. However countries like North Korea and Iran make me fearful because they are unstable and extreme. Can anyone argue in favor of Kim Jong Ils mental sanity? I’ve never heard it done before. How does that make you feel to think about Kim Jong Il with nuclear capabilities. As I said, this would not be a problem if he was sane, but he is not. I suppose in the end the best thing to do is to trust that nuclear war will not come.
