War is part of the human condition. We started by throwing rocks and beating each other with sticks. Every time a new technology is developed people declare that it will be the weapon that will end the ability to wage war because the cost of hate has gone up to an unacceptable level. I know of several examples the recurve bow, gunpowder, crossbows, rifles, machine guns, flame throwers, napalm, and now nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons give cause to the war mongers to seek diplomatic and covert solutions rather than to go head to head with your opponent. But nuclear weapons have nothing whatever to do with world peace because if it did people would have already stopped shooting at each other after the first nuclear weapons were used back in 1945. In the end nuclear weapons are just another crossbow, capable of killing hundreds of thousands of people at a time. Non combatants have always born the heaviest toll of war, now the warmongers can kill us faster.

Why are nuclear weapons a good thing?
Nuclear weapons are a good thing for the United States because they prevent others from using nuclear weapons on the US. In general, the world would probably be a better place without nuclear weapons if it weren't for the fact that they lead to research in all fields of Nuclear Engineering, like Nuclear Power plants and Nuclear Physics. Since nuclear weapons already exist in the world, for the US to get rid of their nuclear weapons would be unwise. Countries that dislike nuclear weapons or even radical terrorist cells and organizations would now have no reason not to launch a nuclear warhead at the US since no retaliation would occur. The strategy of nuclear weapons preventing others from using them against the US is called the Deterrent Strategy.

If the majority of the members of the United Nations or the majority of nations that sit on the UN's Security Council believe that another nation acquiring nuclear weapons is a serious threat to world peace, economic sanctions can be set against such a nation.
