Can Nuclear Weapons Bring Peace?
Find answers to your legal question.





Can Nuclear Weapons Bring Peace?

During the Cold war, it was commonly accepted that MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) would prohibit 2 sides from using nuclear weapons becuase it would bring forth a devestating retaliation. When there is a balance of power in nuclear technology, people think twice about using it. If every nation on the planet had nuclear weapons, we would have everlasting peace.

Because everyone knows if you use it, you are toast as well. Thus, just like US and Soviet Union, either side would not be able to make the first move.

Nope they also bring nuclear winter.

Wouldn't it be better for nobody to have nuclear weapons, just in case some idiot DOES use them? Although nuclear technologoy can't be un-discovered, if everyone watches everyone else so they make sure that nobody makes nuclear weapons, or give control of nuclear weapons to an international organisation, then we won't have the program of rogue states getting their hands on nuclear weapons. The trouble is that although nobody will launch nuclear weapons you daren't call their bluff if they threaten to launch them either.

weapons never bring peace

Weapons don't bring peace. Ever!!! Whether one has them or not, there is no peace as long as there are weapons. Real peace can only be had with Jesus. He said in John 14, my peace I give to you.


vickie
yes offcourse, bcoz there willb no one to create noise.

not as long as terrorist (middle eastern countries excluding Israel) don't have them.

Nuclear bombs shouldn't be allowed at all. Do you realize the destruction it causes. Just watch this video:

This is off the film Threads made in 1984 which shows the effect of a nuclear weapon being dropped into the UK. Scary!

Note: Just let the video buffer.

No, we have nuclear weapons and have a war in Iraq. Theoretically, one nation may not drop the bomb because of retaliation, but they certainly will have wars like Israel and Lebanon. Peace can only be obtained when all sides decide that war is not an option. You throw a lunatic into the mix and all bets are off!

yes and if they do launch we will have peace cause are targets would hit and the enemies would not.... plus the world would go extinct....


Mr. Peachy®
Weapons don't bring peace, huh? Someone's not reading their history. They most certainly do. If you eliminate the bad guys, you have peace. Plain and simple.

'nuff said?

They did once - in 1945.

Yes, they bring peace. Once everything on Earth has been destroyed with them, there be no people. Thus, no arguments or disagreements. Thus, PEACE.

That's exactly why Iran and North Korea must develop nuclear weapons as quickly as possible before the USA invades them as well.

nope with Tehran and N Korea you gotta use a couple

Yes of course! especially if the Arab countries are allowed to possess it. From then peace will reign on this earth.

My reasons:

Arab countries are only those who are being unreasonably invaded and their wealth being robbed by western world, and this happen due to the ability of western world to have nuke. If the Arab countries possesses this weapon Western world will not wage wars against them because they know that the result will not be good for them.

If the war broke out and all the countries on this earth possess the weapon, the the earth will be destroyed and then all human beings will not exist again. From the peace (silence) will occupy this earth


chocolatebunny
Isn't peace (among other things) the absence of violence and threats? How can there be peace if everyone is threatening everyone? If all high-school children would be carrying Uzis, would that create a safe and stable environment??? Don't think so!

Nuking for peace is like f***ing for chastity.
