[net.tv.da] Unilateral disarmament...?

For all you people in favor of disarmament, what I would like to know is this.

Do you seek a unilateral disarmament, or a bilateral disarmament?  

If unilateral:

1) Do you believe that the Soviets will follow suit later?  

2) If not, do you believe that the Soviets will at least leave us alone to 
practice our democracy in peace?  

3) Will they leave the rest of the non-communist world alone, or will they 
continue their expansionist policies?

4) If the Soviet Union were the only country with nuclear weapons, what would 
they do?  

5) If the United States of America and its NATO allies were willing to disarm 
unconditionally, but the Soviet Union and its allies were unwilling to disarm 
under any condition whatsoever, would you still seek disarmament in the US and 
NATO?  

6) Are you advocating "Peace at any cost" even at the cost of freedom?


If bilateral: 

1) Would you accept a unilateral disarmament?  A unilateral freeze?

2) If the Soviet Union refuses, what would you do?  

3) Do you consider the US and NATO to be the driving force behind the 
arms race?


For those in favor of EITHER one:

1) Do you believe that anyone in Washington (or anywhere else) actually
seeks nuclear war, a conventional war, or world dominition (partial or total)?

2) Is disarmament the complete solution?

3) If you are successful, will the threat of world destruction be over?

4) What do you consider to be the next most important issue facing the 
world today?
