To be or not to be - The problem is that the Pentagon for 60 years has been aiming at achieving an unanswerable first-strike capability. Of course, this will result in Launch On Warning and nuclear war by accident. Bloody fools in the Pentagon. Trident missile engineer Bob Aldridge-www.plrc.org-resigned for that reason. The missiles to be deployed in Bulgaria, Romania and Poland are a necessary component for an unanswerable first strike - - to shoot down surviving Russian missiles which are launched in retaliation. Bloody fools in the Pentagon, bloody fools in the office for First-Strike Plans. That´s suicide as Bob Aldridge realized and resigned.
