[Vision2020] The Genie Is Out Of The Bottle

[Donovan Arnold]

Mr. Hansen,

What I am saying with that statement is that the only nation that has ever 
used a Nuclear Weapon on people is the United States. Most nations do not 
demonstrate their ability to create a nuclear explosion by dropping them on 
humans.  Arrows have killed more people in the history of humans than 
nuclear bombs. Conventional wars do not use nuclear weapons. The only use of 
nuclear weapons today is the "psychological threat of there use" if a nation 
with them is attacked.

Your statement of, "as mushroom clouds form over most island nations of the 
Pacific rim courtesy of North Korea)  "Don't worry, little Sally.  They are 
only nuclear missiles."

Makes my point all the clearer.

SALT and SALT 2 were totally pointless. What is the point of reducing the 
amount of weapons you have if it still is enough to blow the world up 120 
times over? All of the weapons agreed to be destroyed were going to be 
eliminated anyway and replaced with more destructive weapons. And they were. 
It was all politics, not substance.

Take Care,

Donovan J Arnold
