lol

Same here, m8.

I loved the Hoth level on Rogue Sqadron the most - even better than the RL2 and Rebel Strike, always seem to have more time to go around shooting stuff in your own time

I don't think I phrased my post above too well...

'At what point does another country decide that you can or cannot have nuclear weapons?' - below that are reasons as why, for me, one or two countries should NOT be allowed to take control and implement military action - and not a dig on the situation with Iraq.

I know it parallels recent events, though I was trying to keep it hypothetical - but I suppose it's all in our subsconciouses at some point. What happens next time if intelligence suggests that a country may be developing a WMD program - at what point do you give trust to a country that has got it wrong before - let alone give military aid to it?


Should there come a time when the US are the country left with a nuclear arsenal - would they make steps to rid themselves of it? Would they rely on convential armed forces to defend itself?

If they refused to 'get rid' does that not send out a hypocritical message to the rest of the world - and ultimately the rearming of other countries would start all over again?

(sorry - too many questions :confused

Hmmnn...

I can see why a nation would want to defend itself - or have the capabiltiy or deterrent of a nuclear weapon to do so.

Obviously it's quite worrying that a potential enemy may have WMDs aimed at a country you live in - though there probably reasons as to why they are aiming at one country and not another.

At what point does another country decide that you can or cannot have nuclear weapons? Is it because you are their military allies which has provided personnel or bases to use in the past? Or have strong business and commercial links etc?

What if another country is so worried that another may be developing WMDs that they discredit that country with false and exaggerated information as a prelude to invasion and then install their values upon that nation?

Or that false infromation if given about WMDs in that country as a reason to interfere - what would happen after? - an apology with immediate withdrawl? Being shunned by the international community' or an emargo against the perpetrators?


^ what would you judge to be fair and reasonable?
