Scary! This administration would have no qualms about throwing nukes around, given the chance. I hope the human race can survive WW3....

The only thing I'd authorise Rumsfeld for is a pointy stick. And even then, only under adult supervision....

If he sets off a mini nuke I won't spend any money for a whole month. I'll go buy enough canned goods and v8 the moment he does it, by crocky.

Be sure to find a deep, deep hole to hide in for a year or two until the fallout subsides ...

Let's just be very very thankful Rumsfeld wasn't Sec of Defense during the height of the Cold War.

Well on the good side if that is true and he does give the OK to use nukes, theres a good chance that even Bush couldnt protect him from the congress. Dont worry about fallout from that size of a bomb on the other side of the globe, if i was in india i wouldnt even worry. Not that using a nuke is ok or anything, but at least its a very very small one. Peace

Give an inch and ya give a mile. Next time it won't be osamas house it'll be yours. I only trust my gov with smoke bombs. I'm starting to think of ways not to be honest with my paying of taxes if they keep this up. I'll let em go broke before I pay for nukes that intend to be used.

Nukes for Peace!
Only a moral, Christian nation like the USA has the ethical wherewithal to use such weapons in the name of humanity.

Well no, not if there was just one little nuke. It may not stop at there, though. There's a distinct possiblity that the following could take place too: country A nukes country b. Seeing this, country C (who is an ally of country A) nukes country B too. Country D, having long standing hostility against C makes a nuclear strike against said country in the name of "self-defense". Country E then uses the preceeding as an excuse to nuke country F in the name of "self-defense" as well, and so it goes on and on and on. Then it's hello nuclear winter! I hope you remembered to pack the lead lined fur coat!
Of course, I'm certainly not 100% sure this would happen, but it would seem to me that the above scenario is more than a small possibility, especially considering that more and more countries are becoming nuclear capable every day. Dare we take such a chance? I would think not, however nations are rarely sensible, especially if wars break out. If in doubt, read up on the causes of WW1 and WW2 and how similar the behaviors are to the one I described and how there's a "domino effect" getting more and more nations involved when large wars break out....

The address comes after reports that the Pentagon is proposing to revive a controversial programme to build nuclear warheads capable of penetrating hardened underground targets such as Iran's covert nuclear facilities.
A leaked memo from Donald Rumsfeld, the United States defence secretary, to the energy department proposed funding for the scheme to begin next year. "You can count on my support for your efforts to revitalise the nuclear weapons infrastructure and to complete the RNEP (robust nuclear earth penetrator) study," Mr Rumsfeld wrote in a memo seen by the Washington Post.
Someone help me out here. (Yoo hoo, oh Pinky...) Iran is a "rogue state" for trying to develop nuclear weapons, so to show them their error in not wanting to join the moral, civilized world, the USA may nuke them. Is that about right?
Hmmm, let's see: how many (rogue) nations have ever nuked another country? Oh, yeah, that would be America.

Or until the soup runs out.
Thank goodness we all have pressure cookers. We can preserve each other's meat in little jars rather than having to eat the dead all at once. Makes it easier to horde.
Hooray! The Shroomery race will reign supreme over all the Earth!
