Kim Jong Un is deeply saddened.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Personally I think the author is a maroon, it’s this
kind of thinking that has got us into the weakened
condition we now face.
Obama is setting us up. He’s taking all of our defenses down. He can’t get rid of nukes fast enough, China and Russia have far, far more than we have now.
It’s like he’s begging for us to be first-striked.
If this isn’t treason I sure as hell don’t know what is.
we’ve disarmed to almost nothing (I’ve heard as low as 800 warheads)
meanwhile, the Russians and Chinese are building up
all at a time when we’re borrowing more and more from the Chinese... with no ability to ever pay It back (war is inevitable)
now there's a real Patriotic organization with the best interests of America at heart... NOT!!!
I guess I will get to see us nuked in my lifetime after all. It will be rather one-sided. Treason.
Apparently none of the Freepers who think this is a bad thing ever had custody of one of these tactical nukes. They were the reason that the torpedo room watches got higher radiation doses than the Engineering Lab Technicians who sampled reactor coolant. We were very happy when the nuclear torpedo was the first to go. It counted how many times its propeller went around to tell how far it had gone before it blew up. The SUBROC could really only be fired at convergence zone contacts, so the pressure wave from the blast would be focused back on the launch platform. At least most of the Tomahawks were outside in the ballast tanks, but still, loading and unloading was a real pain. So I say good riddance.
The author of this piece is obviously a determined anti-nuclear type. However, that being said, all he is enthusiastic about is that we are replacing small nuclear weapons with big ones.
So instead of using a few tactical nukes against some fool like Kim, we will have to use a MIRV ICBM. Which likely means melting North Korea instead of just a small piece of it.
Even worse is that we could have used these tactical weapons to threaten upstart nuclear weapons powers so that they not throw their nukes at their hated enemies.
