BREAKING NEWS : ‘Anti-nuclear’ Obama plans to spend $1 trillion on nukes...YES ONLY $1 TRILLION...I Am Not Naive Says O bum ma

“I’m not naïve,” Obama said that year. “This goal will not be reached quickly — perhaps not in my lifetime. It will take patience and persistence.”After speaking with analysts, however, the Times journalists — both Pulitzer winners in their own right — now raise doubts that the commander-in-chief’s campaign goals will come to fruition anytime soon.“With Russia on the warpath, China pressing its own territorial claims and Pakistan expanding its arsenal, the overall chances for Mr. Obama’s legacy of disarmament look increasingly dim, analysts say,” they wrote. “Congress has expressed less interest in atomic reductions than looking tough in Washington’s escalating confrontation with Moscow.”Indeed, international disputes have without a doubt raised concerns in recent years over the nuclear programs of other nations. The Washington Post reported this week that Pakistan is working towards achieving the capability to launch sea-based, short-range nuclear arms, and concurrently the Kremlin confirmed that Russia is set to renew the country’s strategic nuclear forces by 100 percent, not 70 percent as previously announced.As those countries ramp up their nuclear programs on their own, the Times report cites a recent study from the Washington, DC-based Government Accountability Office to show that the US is making more than just a minor investment with regards to America’s nukes. According to that report, 21 major upgrades to nuclear facilities have already been approved, yet in the five years since Obama took office, “the modernization push” to upgrade the nukes has been “poorly managed and financially unaccountable.”“It estimated the total cost of the nuclear enterprise over the next three decades at roughly $900 billion to $1.1 trillion,” the journalists noted. “Policy makers, the [GAO] report said, ‘are only now beginning to appreciate the full scope of these procurement costs.’”“I’m not naïve,” Obama said that year. “This goal will not be reached quickly — perhaps not in my lifetime.

    Instead of fighting for peace in the world here is a so called leader fighting for war ...and the end result would be the survival of the planet we call home ...no you know why some say the next war after the Third World War will be with sticks and stones

"It’s heartbreaking to see the reports of civilian areas being targeted in the Gulf and Israel this morning, and the millions in Dubai and Tel Aviv waking up to sirens. The world is demanding greater peace, and it’s about time to reflect this."
