China increasing number of nukes

China's stockpile of intermediate-range ballistic missile nuclear warheads should by no means be ignored. The People's Liberation Army's strategy of keeping a balance between its nuclear and conventional capabilities, or focusing on nuclear capability, as a matter of fact refers to these IRBMs and some short-range ballistic missiles.

China will have more nuclear warheads than the United Kingdom and France combined by around 2015, close to the scale of Russia's nuclear warhead stockpile.

Should we all start to get worried about this build up of nukes that the chinese are building or is it a detterent?www.spacewar.com... _nuke_buildup_999.html

Why worry? They have enough to pretty much end the world already. Who cares if they get more? If you weren't worried about their nuclear capacity before, you shouldn't worry now. There are other things going on now that probably deserve more concern than this.

I tend to think the ET's won't let us have a full nuke war. Lessons were learned from WWII. Maybe a terrorist nuke would be allowed... also lesson to be learned. But not full war.

the ets wouldnt let us have a full scale war? look at wwii? what?!?!?

the japs stopped wwii cos america nuked them twice and it was pretty obvious they would get their ass kicked
