"Are nuclear arms good or bad?"

This is a debate on whether nuclear arms are good or bad.

I am for, not because of their power and the demolition they cause but because they can be used to threaten rebel countries like Iraqu so they do not start wars or problems.
What do u think?

Spielberg will have a go soon, no doubt.

I suppose that no one could tell of the horros of WW1.

No, I wouldnt. Me & my fella would kick back, chill & let the worlds problems wash over us. (trying to get this subject lighthearted before someone blows a gasket)

Pride? Maybe. Or perhaps they joined cos it was the done thing. All their friends joined up, it was looked down upon if a man didnt join (which is totally wrong). I dont hink any of them could have possibly imagined where they would be going, what they would be doing etc. From signing up to getting shipped out to the fronline - the time in between that was one big laugh, they could have never imagined ending up as an 'unknown'.

I never think war is good but if some mad man wants to take over your country surely you would stand up and fight back.

Ah, I get you now. Sorry.

Bill Hicks on armies and war:

"I'm so sick of having enemies man. I'm sick of arming these tiny little countries, and then going to blow the crap out of these places because we have to have enemies.
And this "Gays in the military thing", when did the military get so moral?
Aren't y'all hired killers? Go put on a helmet and wait in a foxhole,we'll call you when you're needed. Go do push ups until we need you to kill a nation of brown people that we armed...the military..."

Sorry RAD camps were camps that the German put there enemies in and all they did were break rocks for construction purposes.

Agreed.
But why would I have chips rock in an RAD camp with Nazis?
