Can I ask where you stand on weapons of mass destruction? This line of arguement would suggest that Iraq was fully justified in wanting to have its own nukes. And that we have suppresed their human rights by denying access to them. I actually have some sympathy for that position, the moral inequalities of the whole Iraq issue worry me. To carry it further, when we all have guns, do we all then upgrade to personal tactical nukes? GCU Another Lurker from the Culture.
