This is very scary. I don't want to see anyone, especially the Bush Administration, be able to use Nuclear Weapons in a first strike capability. By the looks of this article, it seems as though the Bush regime would have been able to detonate nuclear weapons on Iraq based on one of the early, false rationales for war. We went in and didn't find any imminent threat, but if this had been enacted, all we'd have found was fallout.
These are dangerous times ahead. I truly believe this could start an all new arms race, especially among smaller countries that believe they could be future US targets.
It seems to me as though advanced nuclear strikes is just as much a terrorist act as 9/11 was.
