Without knowing more details about how the trial panned out (did they have evidence that they couldn't use? was there a problem with the defense?) it's tough to form an opinion, but it's likely the spin on this

I cannot fathom any logic to reducing U.S. nuclear capabilities.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing in the START treaty for us and there is no reason for our politicians to be pursuing it.
Have you counted the numbers of warheads out there? You think we need 5500 nuclear weapons for deterrence? You think we want the Russians to have their 4200 floating around loose with their levels of overly-accurate accountability?
ReplyDeleteHow are we legitimately reducing our nuclear capabilities by cutting out 3000 warheads (and their attendant personnel and maintenance costs)? What, we can't nuke the planet for the 11th time in a row?
