RE: Barbarians want to us
Personally I think that the use of "barbarians" is quite fitting for any who would use such weapons, I don't care what book they believe in, nukes should be outlawed universally
And the US is CRAZY even thinking about their use, let alone trying to provoke a conflict they're supposedly not interested in , cos if they do succeed in getting someone worked up enough the consequences will be something else... personally I don't think they're stupid enough or greedy enough to not see the potential for GLOBAL MAYHEM, since once nukes are in the air, it's all over for much of our planet I'd suspect, and only subscribers to the "he who dies with the most toys wins" theroy would have anything to cheer about...
And I find this whole topic pretty ironic- the US has talked many times about Saddam Hussein "bullying his neighbors"... is it okay, then, to bully someone a few towns over, as this self fulfilling "only an option" idiocy pretty much demonstrates???
