    So more nuke nations= less invasions is a reasonable albeit not a control freak friendly , conclusion.
    And that is the bottom line which trumps ( yes pun intended) your party line.


    When do you believe the Cold War began?

    The United States, Russia, the UK, France, China, North Korea, India, Pakistan, and Israel all control some nuclear weaponry. Russia and the US share 93 per cent of all nuclear warheads,

    How likely is it that the US, Russia, the UK, China, India, Pakistan and North Korea would be invaded? Only Israel is realistically in danger.


    Your suggestion is noted and rejected.


    If Iran approaches their breakout date every nation in the Middle East will have their own crash programs to build and deploy usable nuclear weapons. It seems like a foolish strategy.

    Perhaps MV ( post 231) some of those nations are unlikely to be invaded because they have nukes? Seems like a reasonable assumption.
    The facts are that nuke nations tend not to be invaded, even by us ( the world police/God's) . Even those that many would like to invade like NK.
    Instead the nuke nations like Russia and America fight by proxy in $#@! holes like Afghanistan leaving said $#@! hole worse off. A fact we now know before we go in but in we go regardless..
    It makes sense that the more nations that have nukes the less places the comically named "super powers" have to make war.
    The evidence would suggest that more nuke nations = less invasions which will equal less war. Remember only one mad man ever used nukes on people and he did so in a world where he knew there could be no nuclear retaliation.

    Let's look.
    US. We are being invaded although we have lots of nuclear weapons. So that didn't work out well for you.
    UK. The UK is bein invaded although it has nuclear weapons.
    France. France is being invaded although it has some nuclear weapons.
    ...
    The facts are that nuke nations tend not to be invaded, even by us ( the world police/God's) . Even those that many would like to invade like NK.
    The nature of the invasion changed.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.
