1. He is against them unless

he is shown a very convincing reason why we need them for national security. He says that "my bias is against them."

6. Which means "I've been wondering if they would ever get it going"

to a general.

He already knows what they are intended for and why they would be applicable. If he doesn't he can't be much of a general. They've been kicking this notion around for 25 years.

I can find the links if you would like.

What are you trying to imply by asking the question and not staying around for the answer?

Edit:
Removed hostile sentence.

All general loves nukes, you know. I'm sure you asked just to make sure.

7. Against

Clark is in favor of the test ban treaty...which means no new nukes. If you can't test them, you can't build them.
