Ah, the American culture of fear at its finest.
It would seem that there is nothing that can not be justified in terms of military spending with this tired old line.
What, you don't have enough weapons of every form, shape, or type, you need one more? Daisy wheels and MOABs aren't enough?
The idea of using nukes has since ww2 been perceived as almost unthinkable.
Now we have "small nukes" "Bunker buster nukes"
The world needs this like a hole in the head.
