According to our President, the Most Honorable and Beneficent Barack Hussein Obama:
"I understand those who protest that some countries have weapons that others do not. No single nation should pick and choose which nations hold nuclear weapons. That is why I strongly reaffirmed America's commitment to seek a world in which no nations hold nuclear weapons."
Really?
Isn't it the President's responsibility to pursue international policies that protect the U.S. and its allies? How does weakening the U.S. stand on nuclear proliferation achieve that end? Does the U.S. have a legitimate stake in which countries are allowed to develop nuclear capabilities? Absolutely. The expanded development of nuclear arms poses an existential threat to not only the United States, but also Israel, the U.K., and other democratic countries which are considered enemies of radical Islam.
Also, his Utopian Kumbayah vision of "a world in which no nations hold nuclear weapons" is naive on its face. So if we turn our swords into plowshares so will the people who despise our nation and its freedoms? Right. Why don't we test that theory by eliminating the President's Secret Service detail? After all, if disarming leads to increased security then doesn't he have a responsibility to lead the way?
Deeply troubling.
