In Japan and South Korea there is deepening concern over the reliability of long-time American security guarantees – whether the U.S. will come to their aid in the event of a war. This has been turbo-charged by Donald Trump’s tough treatment of traditional U.S. allies, which has some in Tokyo and Seoul calling for a reassessment of their non-nuclear policies.
I wish but… Do you think they won’t invade us at the whiff of nuclear armament?
I don’t trust them not to invade us without that protection, anyways.
Agreed. I just think that would make it certain.
If we could get nukes secretly I’d be all up for it.
If Japan and South Korea go through with this perhaps we could purchase some from them (or elsewhere, UK, France, hell, even China) to cover us while we work on a domestic program.
Buy a loaded submarine on the hush-hush and sail it to Vancouver? I like it.
Building nukes is like unionizing; ideally you don’t go public until you already have your nukes/union
Gonna be tough to hide when all our computer systems run on Microsoft, Google, or Amazon platforms.
Realistically, I can’t see a situation where the UK wouldn’t agree to sell to Canada if Canada felt it was needed.
Do what isreal did and lie about it while building one
I want to joke “oh, like Iran!” but I don’t want to make razad explode
I don’t think we could realistically hide it from their agents but yeah, totally. That’ll probably be the way if our gov’t decides to do it.
