Some of it has to do with members of the N-NPT, nuclear nonperliferation treaty; but, I think most of it has to do with the double standard that seems to apply to non-USA allies.

Basically, the UN was created by China, Russia, UK, USA and France because all were the winners of WW2. They believe this gives them the right to dictate to the rest of the world who will or will not have nuclear capability.

There is also the fact that the USA is the only current superpower and the cold war has ended. I have been stating since 2001 when Bush resigned from the Anti-ballistic Missile Treaty (thats long range nukes) that we were on the verge of another cold war or even WW3.

I mean think about it... the USA cancels the anti-ballistic missile treaty then invades Iraq without UN approval after stating Iraq was on it's axis of evil. If you were one of the countries on it's axis of evil (Iran and N.Korea) wouldn't you be concerned and want to make nuclear weapons.... I sure would.

Answer 2

I just want him to learn how to pronounce the word correctly.

NU CLE AR

Answer 3

Since he has the most he has the power
However since he has the most he has no moral justification just a wholwe load of hyprocricy.

Answer 4

Might makes right.

The US has the military might to do pretty much whatever it wants, and so it gets to tell other countries what to do. Just like any other bully.

Answer 5

With all the wars that Bush has started in the past 5 years, i don't think he should have any say in who does what

Answer 6

Definitely.

Answer 7

Bush is evil.

Answer 8

I assume you are talking about Iran and N. Korea. Bush didn't decide they couldn't have nuclear weapons, The U.N. did. The U.N. is also the ones who decided Iraq could not possess any weapons of mass destruction. Yes, America is a member, and we voted against allowing these countries to have nukes, but so did the rest of the members. Once again, Bush is evil because of a decision made by the entire U.N.

Answer 9

from a world stand point......no. from where i stand.......yes. i'm not a pacifist or anything, but nuclear weapons should be eliminated.

Answer 10

Oh yes. Especially since Bush is my side. Race has nothing to do with it. Right now, it's Nationality and our nation is USA.

Answer 11

No he is not we should just drop the bomb on them and send them to alla. We owe it to them. We must have war. Bring it to you before you bring it to us. God Bless America and God Bless George W. Bush.

Answer 12

I think you need to shorten that question.

Question: Is Bush justified in thinking.
Answer: No, he's not smart enough to think, this is why he has a team of people behind him explaining everything he needs to know using little pictures and other cartoon like drawings. These people feel the pain worse then we do each time Bush speaks out on his own or strays of the scripts he is given.

Thank you.
Good day, good luck, have fun.

Answer 13

As President, Bush doesn't have the right to decide alone who is or is not to have nuclear weapons. It must be a cooperational effort amonst other nations . Not just the U.S..

Answer 14

And in using nuclear weapons in WW2 saved 100's of thousands of lives on both sides and ended the war. Nuclear weapon access must be controlled and the president is fulfilling his constitutional obligation to protect the country and as leader of the free world to protect others from those who have no objection to using them.

Answer 15

Who did he use a nuclear bomb on, I don't recall any, will you inform me?
Second off, you have a president of a nation whos main goal in life is to wipe off an entire race of people, a nation of people people who follow that man who are willing to sacrifice there children to destroy non believers. A nation of women and children who are so full of hate for a dfferent race of people that they will strap a bomb on themselves walk into a pizza palor or a daycare center and blow them up all in the name of their god. A government that is sending their own people in to a country who is fighting for freedom and democracy, so that they can stop it, so they will be under one supreme ruler. And you want to let them have nuclear technology? I don't think so, they don't care about dieing, like the Japanese do or the Germans, Koreans, Vietnamese. They want to destroy the Jews they don't care if they survive or not but as long as they kill as many Jews and other non believers (me and you) they will be happy with their virgins in the sky. Should they have a nuclear bomb so not only can they destroy a thriving nation but destroy our economy and our already decaying environment. They should not and hopefully will not have a nuclear bomb.

Answer 18

I really believe you should know what the President of the United States can and can not do. Please do some research and you will find that your observations are wrong. President Bush has not or will he use the nuclear bomb. Iran on the other hand is not so trusted. The United States has many bombs that are far more powerful than the nuclear. Be more concerned about them. They will not destroy all living things like the nuclear can. Remember if you people in Iran use the nuclear bomb you are going to eat the fallout. Ever seen a child that was born after the radiation fallout. A lot of deformity is going to happen. Good luck in all of your endeavors of annihilating yourselves. I would suggest you read this. It not only can happen in the USA but where you live too.

Answer 19

I think it's bigger than just him but I personally don't want wacko terrorist type countries to have nuclear capabilities.
as for WWII Japan. my dad and four million other guys were on the island of Formosa (Taiwan} readying for a conventional invasion of Japan the estimates were 15 to 20 million dead. 6 to 8 million American 7 to 12 million Japanese. It seems weird to think this way but less than 1/2 a million died from those two nukes and the bluff of more stopped the war. If nuke had not happened there is a good chance I and lots of others would not be here today!!
was either of your grand parents involved in WWII? What about uncles??
It is said for WWII Americans that "ALL GAVE SOME AND SOME GAVE ALL FOR THEIR COUNTRY). My dad was in on four Pacific theatre island landings and walked away from all four thank god. Mainland Japan invasion would have really devastated that country. In a sense the nukes were civilized.
I also new a gentleman who was involved in the invasion of normandy. Out of a company of 144 men he was the only survivor, chances are good that would not have been my dad half a world away.
Maybe our president isn't always right but he has your best interests at heart and the free worlds as well. this is something most of us have in common. I don't agree with the Iraq deal at all--Osama ain't in Iraq but he is my comander and cheif and I must be a patriot to my country and countrymen first!!!----- sometimes some of us must die so that others may live, and it sucks when that is close to home. please note that I also lost family members during WWII people I never got to meet. they gave all , or you and I would be either pledging alligence to the rising sun or eagle and cross.
I'd rather say god bless the USA than most other choices so shut up!!!!
quit being a whiner, war sucks but sometimes it's the only way especially with people who do not listen and are unwilling to be reasonable.

Answer 20

missourim43, the oath of office Bush took says nothing about protecting the country. "I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."
As for Iran, they have signed the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and they have no nuclear weapons. And our allies Israel, Pakistan and India haven't and they have nuclear weapons. In fact we are giving India uranium in exchange for Indian mango's.And Pakistan is run by a dictator that overthrow a democratically elected president.

Answer 21

Who's Dubya to decide who should have nukyular technology.

Answer 22

What does race have to do it? They were fighting the Japanese for four years and wanted the war to end. I don't know about you, but I would prefer Iran does not have the bomb.

Answer 23

No country that currently has nuclear weapons has started an all out nuclear war and has them solely as a defensive weapon. Why take a chance with a country that has never had the weapon before? They might use it as a tactical weapon. It's best not to allow them to develop it.
