Think what we could do with the money we spend on nuclear weapon systems? We don’t really need them do we. We can’t even fire the buggers without written permission or a directive from Prime Minster Bush. But we still have them, we spend billons a year maintaining them, training personal how to use them and even more on how to survive them. When we need to keep these murderously system going beyond their useful lives we will spend even more billions to do it. Why shouldn’t they have their own world splitting destructive weapons systems as well? We let the Israelis have them? Why not the Pakistanis or the Indians……..I do get your point Garinda, but what does it matter. This is politics and their little room for that when thousands lay dead in the rubble and thousands more will die or suffer illness as a result of it. I would ask you to remember that many thousands of Asian Troops, Sailors and Airman died for this country not sixty years ago and those that survived got ****** all from the British people other that they themselves worked for……
