and i don't mean the C bomb ;)
there has been alot of talk about the Bush administration and defense department using nuclear weapons on countries who chose to terrorize the United States. now first off i'm not against this, besides from the oil in saudi arabia the middle east is pretty much useless. but if Bush decides to push "the shiney red button" he will go down in history as the first guy to use nuclear weapons in such a large scale attack.
and today Bush was quoted in the Associated Press to say :President Bush said Wednesday his administration has "all options on the table" as the Pentagon reworks its nuclear weapons policy to deter any attack on America - including from non-nuclear states such as Iraq and Iran. The U.S. nuclear arsenal is "a way to say to people who would harm America: 'Don't do it,'" Bush said. "We've got all options on the table because we want to make it very clear to nations that you will not threaten the United States or use weapons of mass destruction against us or our allies or friends."
so i guess all this leads up to a very simple question i should have put up as a poll, does anyone else think Bush would go for it? and is anyone here against it at this point?
