Nuclear Free World

At the the U.N. Security Council meeting on Thursday 9/24/09, the council committed for all nations to work for a nuclear weapons-free world, getting where there are or want without having the need to bomb one another up. Developing nations Russia and China supported this. This resolution calls for stepped up efforts to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, promote disarmament and "reduce the risk of nuclear terrorism." Hopefully this will work, but all nations and developing countries must commit to this in order for this to work. It is in the making, but more steps on this issue need to be made if we want the idea of a "nuclear weapons-free world" to be successful. Nuclear weapons in my opinion are pointless because it doesn't just get rid of the certain target governments or countries are aiming for, but kills thousands of innocent people. And on top of that, killing those thousands of people, they sometimes don't even kill who they wanted to "eliminate" in the first place. Hoenstly if they think using nuclear weapons and bombing innocent people will make the other country give in and surrender to "stop the madness," your wrong. It'll just make them want to fight back, in revenge. And then it just never ends.
