| Message | We'll support this. Although nukes can possibly be legitimate as a deterrent (although I'm sure the KGP will disagree with me there) chemical weapons cannot be justified - and especially as a first-strike. |

| Message | nuke can act as a deterrent (I'm not saying it's a legitimate one :) but in today's globalised world, terrorists are the threat and no nuke will stop a terrorist... about chem and bio weapons: a big NO there, we are not barbarians but, in my opinion, a civilized nation; so let's ban these medieval weapons! |
