I was wondering what other people thing about WAR. What would you do if WORLD WAR III broke out? What do you think about nuclear war, germ warfare, hand to hand, etc...?? Why do you think the US and Russia have nukes? What would make them both launch them?? My thoughts: First Question: I think if WORLD WAR III broke out there wouldn't be any one left. The sad thing is that we have to have war in the first place. I really hate the person who thought of war to solve problems, It just makes more. second ques: Nuclear war doesn't ware off for a while (the radiation i mean), same thing with germ warfare. Hand to hand is be far the mildest, but it still shouldn't happen. Third question: I have no idea WHY you would want to kill other people because of some stupid argument a president started 10 years ago. There is really no good excuse to have nuckear weapons in the first place. If you asked the question "Why do you have nuclear weapons" You might get a response: "They had them first" or maybe "There number exceedes our amount by far..." What sort of reasons are those??? When do you think it (World WAR III) will happen, if ever?? I will also make a survey of how many people are against nukes, and haw many people think they are necessary for defense. Please respond by mail to my questions. If I get a sufficent response, I will post them (unless otherwise asked not to) From the Taj Mahal, Bomb shelter of: Mat Pirz alice!mat NO NUKES!! NO NUKES!! NO NUKES!! NO NUKES!! NO NUKES!! NO NUKES!! NO NUKES!!
