but nobody else can have them? Sounds like the NRA's whine "when guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns".
Sounds like these guys don't want any competition.
Everybody or nobody, preferably the latter, should have these things. Keep the paying field level.

Not sure I know a lot about this, thus correct any errors I make....

Seems to me that Reagan and Gorbachev tried this many years ago with no success...

Seems also to me that we have a weak and basically useless UN that is supposed to be where to go with such a proposal.

I am not sure what the relationship is between the invasions or wars you cite and nuclear as none was used by any of them (Most of the parties you mention are part of the non proliferation act)

Your thrust seems to be to keep adding to the list you cite..I assume your point is that those who have them are not to be trusted because they have gone to war...I see it quite differently in that NONE of them, or anyone for that matter, have used them (thankfully).

Not having nuclear weapons is not a new idea for sure but until something is done it would seem prudent to maintain what you have and keep the world from becoming glutted with them, dont you think ?
