I know we like to speak out against unjust foreign interventions on this forum, but does anyone get the feeling that if North Korea continues to develop nuclear weapons, it'll force South Korea to do the same, and then another country and another country, until the whole region if full of these weapons of mass murder?
Is it really acceptable that, in the name of non-intervention, the West allows the entire world to have a weapon that is so evil, so destructve that it could quite easily lead to the deaths of millions of people?
We need a world with fewer nuclear weapons, not more.
you're using the same argument used to advocate gun control.
nukes are not going away, countries have them both "good" and "bad".
pushing around little countries and ordering them to disarm does not make a safer world.
a nuclear armed world...is a polite one (believe it or not).

True, but we must realize that deterrence theory requires rational actors to work. It does not stop the irrational actor from starting violence.
Out of every one hundred men they send us, ten should not even be here. Eighty will do nothing but serve as targets for the enemy. Nine are real fighters, and we are lucky to have them, upon them depends our success in battle. But one, ah the one, he is a real warrior, and he will bring the others back from battle alive.
Duty is the most sublime word in the English language. Do your duty in all things. You can not do more than your duty. You should never wish to do less than your duty.
And the moment he does, his country is toast.
Along with anyone within a 90+ mile radius of the missiles' strike zone.
Nuclear weapons are only useful to terrorists, whether government or insurgents.
