I'm of split minds about the whole thing - I don't see how the West can morally object to nuclear weapons whilst still in posession of them.

I mean, of course, we got them at a time when international relations were incredibly hostile, and I don't mean to downplay the Cold War - but mutual disarmament needs to be instigated by someone, and if it means we get extra brownie points, why shouldn't we start?
