    As every single country should. It’s clear at this point that if you don’t have nukes, your security is nonexistent.

      That’s insanity! It’s literally building a pile of TNT to sit upon and than handing everyone a match “for safety”!

            So country from which imperialist aggression the world wants to protect from the most is the only country that even used it? Sounds like we are good if everyone else gets them.

          I’m not worrying about countries using them. I’m more worried about them getting stolen.

              So copper is not worth stealing? A bike is not worth stealing? Guns in the US are not worth stealing?

              If everyone has them, it’s not worth stealing.

              Not everyone will have them. I doubt there will be 8 billion nukes so that everyone will always get their way.

              Imagine if some death cult demanded everyone wear yellow hats or they would nuke somewhere, and trigger all the retaliation policies worldwide.
