This is due to a bunch of big, powerful countries teaming up and bullying everybody else.
Why do you think it’s such a big deal if Iran has nuclear weapons? After all, the US has nuclear weapons. Russia has nuclear weapons. Israel has nuclear weapons. So why can’t Iran have nuclear weapons?
Because if Iran had nuclear weapons, then those big and powerful nations might have to give Iran a seat at the table. It wouldn’t be so easy pushing Iran around anymore, because if you pointed nuclear missiles at Iran, you’d have nuclear missiles pointing right back at you.
Personally, I don’t think that any country should have nukes. They’re too dangerous. I think that all countries should be working towards mutual nuclear disarmament. This can be done through treaties and so on. But if any country is allowed to have them, then every country should be allowed to have them.
That’s a really dangerous thought. Certainly no nation should have nukes, but increasing the number who have them just makes it more likely they’ll be used. Civilizational survival is more important than fairness here.
We survived the Cold War because of “Mutually Assured Destruction” and no one in their right mind would let this happen. But it came down to one person disobeying an order at least once. It would be insane to trust the survival of civilization on this assumption
It would be “mad” to multiply the number of ways we can destroy ourselves and believe MAD will save us
The US should be working towards disarmament, and they’ve been going in the opposite direction. It’s hypocritical for the US to demand that other nations not have nukes when they’re stockpiling them.

Yeah I agree with you.
Every country should have nukes, humans are too dangerous
