Of course - President Eisenhower (a Republican, for those who care) warned us about it when he left Office in 1960. If it was a concern fifty+ years ago imagine how massive it must be now.

So it's basically a pox on everyone's house as far as I'm concerned. Every country and faction has its' part to play. Me? I'm a pacifist. Make love, not war, etc etc etc.
