BitterSweet

sorry, i didn't want to post a really long thread.... anyways... I believe that as long as a nation possesses nuclear weapon, the others will for many sees it as a power. The way I see is that if you have a force to destroy or threaten another, then that is a power. I'm pretty sure that is a very common belief. Another reason to reduce: Terrorism. there have been cases of smuggling, and Al Qaeda has said to "perform another Hiroshima" to US. They must be secured. Though there are many other reasons, such as biological and environmental effects, I also believe that the nuclear weapons should be reduced because it is against Einstein's purpose. He hoped for nuclear power to provide electricity to support poor countries.

Nowadays on news we hear about the Iraqi War, swine flu, murders, etc. However we rarely hear about the catastrophe of nuclear weapons. With as many as 30,000 nuclear bombs in the world, how could we sit back and rest? About 30% of nuclear weapons in the world are possessed by the United States. Those numbers must be decreased promptly as possible. Our President Barack Obama has said the following: “Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.” I believe that the United States should take an action immediately and lead the world. Unfortunately our ancestors are the beginning of this bitter-sweet discovery. The first bomb was possessed by U.S. We must not blame them and we must stick to the present and future, not the past. We must change the world.
