Trident

[Stupie82]

For me trident IS a waste of money now over 200 billion and some .
Whilst Westminster is 1.7 trillion in dept..

As I've said before I will say it again there has been 5 category B incidents involving trident
1 at Faslane.

2 at Davenport.

1 off the Norwegian coast

1 in the middle of the Mediterranean.

We have enough nuclear weapons to kill up to 320 million people .

Shocking . Pressing that button to kill millions of people is absolutely disgusting.
If anyone agrees with trident I'd like to see you walking past cities of dead people men woman and children and the poor wildlife
Who have done nothing wrong immediately after .

It's all wrong.

And thats what the issue is. People, as in normal citizens dont realise that wars arent won by the amount of civilians that are killed, but only by the amount for soldiers that are killed. Dropping nuclear bombs does nothing but kills innocent people and ruins infrastructure. It doesnt topple governments who are hiding safely in their bunkers.

A half thought retaliation strike does nothing to instill confidence, but only makes the whole nuclear idea more tragic. If a nation is willing to strike first, then they are not arsed that there will be a retaliation.

Also this test that went wrong a few months back, could have been very serious. Whilst it wasnt armed, if it had headed towards Russia or the USA, who knows what might have happened. I have read many times that the likelihood of nuclear war is greater on the back of an accident, rather than an actual strike on a nation.
