Nuclear Weapons Should Be Abolished
Everyone knows that nuclear weapons have huge harm on human, animals, and our planet. We should definitely ban nuclear weapons in every country including US and Russia. For more details about nuclear weapons, please watch this vedio

I agree, the stock pile is enormous.

Unfortunately they exist and we can't uninvent them. How would it happen? Who would be the first to abolish them? Not the US for certain.

Absolutely not. Nuclear weapons are there primarily as a deterrent, secondarily as an actual offensive weapon. I believe, if the USA didn't have nuclear weapons, it would have been subject to many more terrorist attacks, as well as its major allied countries.

So long as mankind possesses the attributes of avarice and ambition war will not cease.

Besides, there is no reason that you can give a country to stop producing nuclear weapons. Even if you say you will nuke them.

Peace is a choice. If nuclear weapons are to cease to exist . . . The knowledge of them would have to leave, history would need to be rewritten, and EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the world would have to choose to do so. (And everyone would have to be an angel to be that honest.)

As Will Durant said, It is best to seek peace but keep your gunpowder dry.

No, I guarantee that some crazy country will pretend to and then on some sunny day.... BOOM that country becomes ruler of the world.

In an ideal world, yes. However, this is simply not feasible; there would be nothing to regulate this disarmament process, and countries would be utterly reluctant to simply destroy all of their nuclear weapons -there would be a huge sense of uncertainty and hostility, no one would know who ahd destroyed their weapons, how many had not been destroyed, etc.

Simply put, countries would simply not be prepared to do this and leave themselves so vulnerable. Even in the unlikely event that countries did get tid of their weapons, there would be on or two who kept some for themselves, which could well be disastrous. Therefore there would never be such an agreement to destroy nuclear weapons.

Countries need ways to defend themselves. We could try to lessen nuclear arsenals around the world but getting rid of one of our most effective weapons would be foolish.

There's really no way that you can abolish nuclear weapons, we know how to build them so even if we destroyed them all, someone could build them again. You can't put the genie back in the bottle.

Nuclear weapons have brought peace to much of the world since the end of the Second World War. The tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union would almost certainly have erupted in war had it not been for the spectre of total annihilation giving everyone pause for thought.

Even if you could get general agreement from all the countries in the world to do away with their nuclear weapons, how could you verify that they had done it? Even if they did do it, how could you guarantee that they would not develop new nuclear weapons? In a disarmed world, whoever was the first to get themselves a working supply of nukes would rule.
