Why aren't they banned?

Why aren't they banned?

Because we're not that stupid

Why can't I have one?

Banned by whom with what enforcement mechanism? Nuclear deterrence has lead to unprecedented long periods of peace between large powerful nations.

I'm sure that'd stop nuclear war

Fuck off commie

Who's gonna stop us we got nukes bitch.

fuck banning them, we should commercialize them

They'll just be replaced by less detectable, tailored virulent weapons.

Is that what you want?

Shit's da bomb, yo.

Because they've stopped WWIII.

>Wanting the only think that can harm the Dragon King and his army on the day of his resurrection banned
Do you want the human race to go back to being enslaved by those lizard bastards millions of years ago?

for the same reason stupid lil bitches like you are permitted to speak....to deter other stupid fux like you from sounding stupid

Speak softly and carry a big stick, you will go far.

How do you ban atomic bomb?
>hey! Disassemble your nuclear warheads
If you gonna make me, I'll launch them on you

phonefag

>world powers: "let's all dismantle and ban nuclear weapons"
>some nation: "hmm maybe I'll just keep a few hundred and not tell anyone"

That's why.

The initial explosion is minimal in damage.

Fallout is the larger reason, wind patterns could fuck up a much larger area that was never intended to be effected.

I fixed that

they are just not for americans
its part of the Geneva convention
which burgers never signed

what're you gonna do to someone if they keep making them when they're banned? nuke them? embargo? tariffs?

isolating and starving out an enemy with nukes is as stupid as it can get.

...

That's my child mr officer! My little Bombino :'(

I'm pretty sure they are
What did you mean by this?

what is that a potato?

best season, def

They kinda are, the only people who have them are the only ones allowed to. You cant give nukes to other countries (*though that seems to be what happened with israel).


Most of the nukes in the world are either tactical or the 50-500 kiloton variety on missiles. Destructive of course but aside from museum quality and quantity examples we dont have the megabombs anymore.


The real reason they arent banned is because there's still enough uranium and plutonium in the world to keep making them.

You only get this enrichment through standard nuclear reactors.

Not thorium reactors.
Think about that.


this
its not enforceable

however I would suggest that with thermobarics and precision guided munitions nukes are obsolete right now

nobody has anything to fear from nukes really, except the micro-nukes

>every person should have a gun for self defense
>countries shouldn't be allowed nukes for self defense

Best-FPBP-ever

>unprecedented
holy fuck i have grown to hate this word, do you work for a news outlet?

Because once a nation has nukes, it cannot be toppled by external forces.

Well it can, but the political ramifications would be enormous.

Can you imagine the US invading North Korea and they manage to truck in and detonate a nuclear device right in front of a US Army advance.

While it will not save North Korea, the administration at the time is absolutely done. Even if the casualties are minimal, they will be paraded around the world's media.

you have to be 18 to post on Sup Forums.

Why would any country agree to banning them? Look at what happened to Ukraine.

>US, Russia, and UK agree not to fuck with Ukraine after it disarms
>agree to protect Ukraine in exchange for it disarming
>fast forward 25 years
>Russia takes a chunk of Ukraine while the US and UK sit on the sidelines and watch

If you're not a nuclear power, you're nothing.

We need lots of these now in Europe cause we fear Russia and only Francce got a couple
