You are resorting to insulting the knowledge of a 15 year old, real good move. You do realize you are a 19 year old freshmen in college who likes to embark in political debates with 15 year olds? No offense, but thats a little sad. Then, it shocks you when you realize we might not know as much as you about such matters? Come on now. In any case, you can't come back at the "9/11 proves anything can happen' argument because it's true. No one saw that coming, and no one thought it would ever happen. If it's been done, it can be done. Do I think nuclear weopons will be used? Hell no. However, it could happen. If you know as much about the world as you say, you'd know there are some crazy sons of bitches out there who would do anything, reason to it or not. The chances are slim, slimmer than Nichole Riche, but they are there.

    Yeah,I'm sure you were taught that at an early age considering this is America.I'm not sure but I believe Mixx is from a foreign country?They don't shove down American history sure as much as they do here.Either way I think it's something anyone should know.I also just realized,in school they usually give you 1 book for American history,and 1 for every other nation in the world which usually contains 5 pages of history.

I'm talking about how it is possible for NUkes to be used, and you come out and say: "Anyone should know Japan was nuked"If anything, that supports my argument

    The world is completly different now, it doesn't matter, if anything it hurts your argument because after what happened it set in place world panic and nuclear restrictions.

    to get back to the original question, i don't think Nukes should be used, and I don't think Nukes will be used unless some terrorist organisation managed to build a dirty bomb. I don't think Iran would use them if they got them, not even they are that crazy. I wish every country would get abandom their nucular programs, but I'm a realist, so I know that can't happen for several reasons, the main one being that they have already been invented and can't be un-invented, and human nature being the way it is.

    Dirty Bombs are the most overrated weapon people mention when talking about terrorism. You have to get a lot of radioactive material together to build one thats effective.

    well i can't think of any other nuclear weapon actually being used. The chances of an actual weapon grade nuclear warhead being acquired by terrorists is very slim. And i simply can't see any country using them. They're all well aware that they'd be completely eradicated if they did. The cold war principle still works.
