it also underscores the importance of the agreement we have reached with Iran to reduce the possibility of more nuclear weapons

How about the U.S.A. getting rid of its nuclear weapons too?

@Kenny lyekawa"Yes, when the Russians".

Soviets (Russians) learnt historical lessons of Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings very well. They really need a Big Nuclear Stick to punish a World Bully (the USA), if needed. Without the USSR (Russia) Americans would bomb by A-bombs any nation in any part of the world easily, under false pretexts, killing millions of people. They proved it by starting dozens of aggressive wars around the world. Russia is a Good Power that can convert that selfish and arrogant warmongering state right into glass parking lot.

Without the USSR (Russia) Americans would bomb by A-bombs any nation in any part of the world easily, under false pretexts* you forget it goes the other way around, if Russia and the US didnt have the 12,000 divided reasonable evenly between then each power wouldnt hold the other in check. Nuclear warefare is the be all and end all, Russias 6000+ nukes also hasnt stopped the US compete in a number of wars since WW2. Nuclear weapons will only be used when the first strike state should expect an equal or exponential counterattack resulting in there annihilation. No sane country would set themselves on that path. Terrorist on the other hand are a different story.

Mutual Assured Destruction, If any country did launch their nuclear arsenal at United States, it would be death by Suicide. America has proved it, and will continue to provide War and Death as long as it continues to profit a few very wealthy men.

Indeed, it's ironic how the only country that used them in all human hystory thinks that it can teach something to others about this matter.
