The United States is one of the five recognized nuclear powers under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty ("NPT"). It maintains a current arsenal of around 9,960 intact warheads, of which 5,735 are considered active or operational, and of these only a certain number are deployed at any given time. These break down into 5,021 "strategic" warheads, 1,050 of which are deployed on land-based missile systems (all on Minuteman ICBMs), 1,955 on bombers (B-52 and B-2), and 2,016 on submarines (Ohio class), according to a 2006 report by the Natural Resources Defense Council.[14] Of 500 "tactical" "nonstrategic" weapons, around 100 are Tomahawk cruise missiles and 400 are B61 bombs. A few hundred of the B61 bombs are located at seven bases in six European NATO countries (Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Turkey and the United Kingdom), the only such weapons in forward deployment.[15][16]
The us has 9,960 intact warheads, of which 5,735 are considered active or operational. The smallest warhead in the current arsenal is 165x more powerful than hiroshima. At a minimum we have 1,643,400 times more destructive power than them bomb we dropped on hiroshima. Probably enough.
I voted for bush senior, and twice for junior. As a republican, I think Obama is correct in this matter.
Cant we just talk about cars?
