.....I think I read an article just recently claiming Bush has hopes of being the first to use nuclear weapons since Truman. It was so chilling that I wanted to share it with others.

Did I misread because now I can't find the article anywhere? If the article actually exists would some kind soul please post a link here?:hug:

:hi:Thanks so much!!:loveya:

America will strike first, says Bush in new security plan
By Sam Knight

America will continue to pre-emptively attack its enemies and Iran is now the greatest danger facing the United States, George Bush announced today in a new version of his "National Security Strategy".

In the 49-page document released four days before the third anniversary of the American -led invasion of Iraq, Mr Bush gave a resolute, upbeat account of the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and said his Administration would continue to confront states before they had a chance to attack America or develop nuclear weapons.

"Our strong preference and common practice is to address proliferation concerns through international diplomacy, in concert with key allies and regional partners," he wrote.

"If necessary, however, under long-standing principles of self defense, we do not rule out the use of force before attacks occur, even if uncertainty remains as to the time and place of the enemy’s attack."

3. Here's another one, and right from the DU homepage:
http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/articles/060417fa_fact

The header read: "US considers use of nuclear weapons against Iran", and here's from the text: "One of the military’s initial option plans, as presented to the White House by the Pentagon this winter, calls for the use of a bunker-buster tactical nuclear weapon, such as the B61-11, against underground nuclear sites."

Let Snotty Scotty try to bafflegab that one!!
