I think it is unreasonable, Joe. I am opposed to all nuclear weapons myself. I don't think the US should have them either. I don't see where the strategy of letting all nations have them in the supposed interest of "self-defense" is a step in the right direction. It's a MAD world. I think "mutual assured destruction" will only lead to "mutual assured destruction".
