Do we really have to take military action to Syria?

@peter jeffrey cobb,

We can only use words like "reduce" in this world political climate where different countries have different numbers and in development of nukes and chemical weapons. How that will be negotiated between the countries is not in my province to determine.

How about take it to a vote with all members? No veto's allowed. Majority rules. What ever decision is made all members agree to follow it. Either it is allowed to carry and premeditate on how to use a weapon of mass destruction, or its not.

So you argument is that given a certain condition it is ok to use weapons of mass destruction?

"OK" and "Not OK" are terms that don't really apply to the situation.

If someone uses nuclear weapons against us or our allies, we will retaliate in kind.

Whether this is OK or not.... Not really a question that has any relevance.

@oralloy,

So you are saying that members are allowed to use weapons of mass destruction if it fits their needs? Is there a certain timeframe that member must give for an investigation, before the member Nation gets the green light from the rest of member States on using a weapon of mass destruction?

You just arnt listening. Hopefully we will never have to use then again. But unilateral disarmament is equivalent to suicide. I have pointed this out to you several times and all you can come up with is strawmen arguements. You and JTT can pat each other on the back but I am done with you.

You might as well drop this guy from your posts. He just another JTT.

Well I am just trying to understand your point of view that's all Smile

Is using and premeditating the use of weapons of mass destruction a crime?
Are you trying to rationalize ways to commit the crime?

Allow? Investigation? Green light?

If someone uses nuclear weapons against us or our allies, we will simply respond in kind. There won't be any of that other nonsense.

(I wouldn't worry about it. There isn't going to be a nuclear war.)

Nonsense. You'll never hear me telling the nuclear weapons establishment not to build any nukes over 10 megatons, or telling the military they can't target something with a bomb over 2 megatons unless they can first justify why the target requires a greater yield.

@oralloy,

So what you are saying is that all someone would have to do, is find a way to make it look like it came from one of the member Nation. And you would not investigate you would use weapons of mass destruction instantly against the Nation that was set up?

Peter so has your number, Rabel. Check with Tico or OmSig. Maybe they'll let you join their group of cowards.

When a Nation is building each of its weapons of mass destruction, does it each time picture how it would be as it is detonated? Does the Nation then premeditate on how they will detonate that weapon of mass destruction?

Yes, the president has the authority to use WMD's. Once the decision is made, the military must follow it up with action. It's about the chain of command.

Yes, it's a crime by international law, but rogue states will ignore them.

@cicerone imposter,

You mean any official elected by Nation taxpayers on their behalf? We are talking about the process of delivering weapons of mass destruction by any Nation they could monarchy, president, what ever way they chose to run their government. But ok we can use one particular Nation as an example on their premeditation of detonating a weapon of mass destruction.

I only know how it works in the US. All other countries have their own process/procedures for the use of WMD's. I don't have control in any, so I don't worry about it.

@cicerone imposter,

Do worry about detonating Weapons of mass destruction, as a taxpayer paying for it to be build? How do you picture it as it goes off?

We have seen several training films, but most of us in the air force were never exposed to the "real thing." We learned about the destructive power of nukes, and what was dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki were really very small by comparison to what is available today. Depending on how it's used, the area that it will decimate will be unbelievably huge. Millions can get killed with one thermonuclear bomb.

@cicerone imposter,

And killing millions with each one is an acceptable crime or form of punishment?
