> You think that all countries should get the same rights? Do you think all people in your country should get the same rights?

  They do, unless they commit crimes, then these rights get severely limited (like every country in the world)

    So then all countries should have same rights.

      Are you saying that countries and people are the same? And I’m not entirely sure what point are you trying to make, that terror countries like the houthis should have nuclear weapons, or that people in a country should not have equal rights.

        Yes countries are people and to secure their existence nuclear option should be perused. This was much better written here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47191788 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47191788

          It’s amazing to me that you truly think that terrorists having nuclear weapons will make the world safer.

            Terrorists already have nuclear weapons. Of course no country having nukes is ideal, but in absence of that possibility everyone having them is better, unless your reasoning is "I hope my side has them and the other side doesn't."

              Of course that that’s my reasoning. You don’t start war out of a presumption of power equality. Wars are won by a power imbalance. When someone is attacking me obviously I want the bigger and stronger weapon.
