A dose of common sense was administered at President Obama’s nuclear summit. Nicholas Sarkozy, the President of France said as follows.
“I cannot jeopardize the security and safety of my country . . . [by giving up nuclear weapons] on a unilateral basis in a world as dangerous as the one in which we live today.”
It seems that disarmanent is being sought as though it will bring world peace. In reality, when a sane country with a well founded fear of aggression arms itself well, it increases the likelihood of peace. Libya and North Korea, for instance are simply not as reliable as countries like Belgium and Sweden.
Iran has threatened to wipe Israel off the map. It has subsidized war in Lebanon and dealt harshly with its own Arab minority in Khuzestan. Letting them get nukes is like going into a psych ward and handing out concealed carry permits. (Click here to read the rest of my story on Indyposted.com)
