“It is my fervent goal and hope…that we will some day no longer have to rely on nuclear weapons to deter aggression and assure world peace. To that end the United States is now engaged in a serious and sustained effort to negotiate major reductions in levels of offensive nuclear weapons with the ultimate goal of eliminating these weapons from the face of the earth"
Well said Mr President!
Naive simpleton at best, a man who wants the US to fall hard at worst!
In a perfect world getting rid of all nuclear weapons would be grand. HOWEVER, in the real world if we don't have nuclear weapons others still can and will develop them. Imagine if we didn't have nuclear weapons but say Cuba had them. They could extort of for what ever they wanted. If could be Florida, Texas oil, women etc? It won't matter they could require it and back up the demand with a sledge hammer and there would be NOTHING we could do to stop them.
He also says this when our nuclear rival (Russia) is invading and starting to take over one of our allies.
No this is not a good thing for him to say. It's just another showing of weakness that EMBOLDENS our enemies!
