If your gun fight is a nuke fight then what exactly is the point? The destruction of the world? I doubt we will respond with Nukes if and when the challenge is made in the form of a nuke detonated here. Therefore, what is the deterrent when the opponent is illogical.

We need to keep all our options open in the coming conflicts. We are not France, and we will do what it takes to defend our nation.

I can't even believe that you would try to argue that unilaterally disarming our nuclear capabilities would make our country, or the world, a safer place. Talk about illogical...

There are worse things than world destruction. Being slaves to a bunch of gooks pops immediately to mind. "Better dead than red" is a slogan worth holding on to.
