Aunt Spiker, I have read that the thing about the US cutting back on their nukes is a deception. They may be cutting back on something but something else will be doing the same thing. I have a poor memory, but definitely read it is a deception.
Well - 3 things:
#1 - who says it's a deception? Surely it's easy for anyone to claim deception in this situation because:
#2 - the status of our nuclear dismantling process is partially classified because:
#3 - it's foolish and ignorant to let your nuclear-weaponed enemies know for certain you can't retaliate against them.
So - I believe they're actually culling the nuclear herd. . . and I have just as much reason or proof of that as does someone who claims it's deception. Because of the condition and nature of the issue in it's entirety there's no way to prove one thing or another.
Regardless - how many nukes does one need, anyway? Culling the herd doesn't mean we're getting rid of every single last one. So - it's one thing to be dwindling the numbers but that's far different than getting rid of all of them.
