From a plain and simple moral perspective, IMO every country has the right to build them. Preventing that is about what team you are on rather than morals.
- snickerer 4y agoIt is a mistake to think in moral categories regarding to international politics. Morale is something a group-in-power uses to control (or influence) the public. Like fear, greed, or compassion. Morale is not a basis for political decisions or political analysis. Every country's ruler wants nuclear weapons. And every ruler wants the other rulers not to have the bomb at the same time. To force the others not to develop the bomb, you must put pressure on them. A good way to put pressure is... to have the bomb.
