I don't mean to be flippant and please understand I'm not flaming but:
Not one country who has weapons of mass destruction has the moral highground to say, or participate in saying who else should have them. The very nature of those weapons is against the common interest we should have as humans to survive. In an effort to remove Iraq's ability to attain weapons in the future the states USED wmds on them (yay shock and awe)
Even the UN, which is a unified voice, lacks the moral highground because it is controlled by a security council which kowtows to the armed minority.
I know I'm not providing a solution. Perhaps the only solution we have is G-Nut (for those fans of obscure references, prize for you if you recognize this)
