Small countries like mine should have nuclear weapons to defend themself. We
Don't have large armies and/or good weaponry so how can we defend ourselves
without nukes. That's right we can't! Nukes are ment only for defending, right?
At least that's what I hear from those who try to justife them.

In Finland we are always depating should we join NATO or not? Is Russia going
to attack someday? So let's even the battle and get nukes. Then we don't have
to join NATO just to protect ourselves.

Their's other benefits too. We would have some saying in the world issues.
For exemble if something happens in Israel or Pakistan and India start to fight
we could 'calm' things.

BTW, I recommend this policy to all the small countries. We deserve a saying
in world affairs!

Finland is awesome. My mom is a second-generation immigrant from there. I'm sure they would use nukes responsibly.
BUT. . . that argument is eerily reminiscient of the one used by N. Korea.

A nuclear Finland wouldn't bother me one bit. They're a stable and democratic country. A nuclear N. Korea is a different story.

I have nothing against N.Korea having nukes... Although the world might be
more dangerous...

Do you have anything against them selling nukes? Because you know they will. They've already transferred nuclear materials to Libya via Pakistan. N. Korea doesn't care about any international laws. They're the biggest illegal methamphetamine dealers in East Asia. What makes you think they wouldn't sell a nuclear weapon to a terrorist organization?

You mean like the US outfitted Hussein in the Iran-Iraq war in the 80s? I guess, if NK gives nukes to terrorists, it's bad luck for the US. :p

The US never gave Saddam nuclear weapons, despite your hallucinatory fantasies about it.

Ok, so if one party does something wrong then forever after it's ok for everyone to do it. Hey, I seem to remember people having raped, robbed and killed before. I think I'll just go ahead and immitate them.

Not nukes, but chemical and biological WMDs, which is just about the same.

It's not ok for NK to do it, but there's little to nothing that can be done against it.

Not really. Neither nerve gas nor anthrax will do as much damage as a strategic nuclear weapon in a major city.

Watch and learn. It won't be long before N. Korea is disarmed. One way or another.

First: I don't think they wouldn't sell nukes to terrosrist. But I tried to say
(didn't do a good job doing it) that countries that have nukes should have
no place to say who are 'good' enough to have nukes.

But it seems that only the countries that have nukes can disguss these things
so Finland should have nukes.

Not even biologicals. Some help with chemicals, but not as much help as they got from the Germans and Russians in that regard. It was more of a matter that we knew he was buying them, and didn't care at the time, but he bought them from the Russians and got equipment to make more from the Germans.
