If You Love Nuclear Disarmament: Is It Because You Love War?

As one of the fundamental planks of his foreign policy, Obama has resurrected nuclear disarmament talks with the Russians. As he said in Egypt:

No single nation should pick and choose which nations hold nuclear weapons. That is why I strongly reaffirmed America's commitment to seek a world in which no nations hold nuclear weapons.

I'll keep this short. We haven't been in a major war since we dropped the bomb. Mutual Assured Destruction has kept the peace for 60 years. Nuclear disarmament would greatly increase the temptation for aggressive countries eager to intimidate their neighbors or grab resources (yes, I am talking to you Russia!). It would lead to war.

Nuclear weapons are our friend. This is a perfect example by the way of democrats supporting policies because they feel right, not because they actually produce the right results, which I discussed here.
