    1. It's unethical to kill, especially if it's a large quantity of people who may also be innocent.

      The ending result can be catastrophic

      Violence leads to more violence

  2. I agree with nuclear weapons. My mom told me that if i ever wanted to hurt someone, a nuclear weapon would be perfect. Nuclear weapons are proven to be real deadly. Some people are real bad and they might hurt you so nuclear weapons are good to repay them.

      i Disagree,

      Ethos::. Obama preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon is a national security interest of both Israel and the United States

      Pathos::. Nuclear weapons is what makes other people scared so they going to keep building more weapons and hurt eachother

      Logos::. Developing nuclear weapons and trading them with an unkown party in Iran. Not necessarily the official government, but most likely a terrorist organization. Iran keeps insisting that its nuclear program is purely peaceful and aimed only at creating nuclear energy but it is clear that this is not the case.

    Pathos- Nuclear weapons are bad and they are not to be treated lightly, Japan knows all to well of the adverse effects that nuclear weapons can have on a population.

    Ethos- President Obama believes that nuclear weapons should be strictly controlled and he believes in reversing nuclear proliferation.

    Logos- in 1945, the A-bomb dropped on Hiroshima yielded an instant 78,000 deaths and the A-bomb dropped on Nagasaki yielded 27,000 deaths, but even more died from radiation YEARS after the bombs initially detonated.

    1. Ethos/Logos Your statement is false because the President does condone nuclear weapons , why else would we have nuclear weapons if they weren't condoned?

      Pathos : Many people have died at the hands of christianity and religions , what harm will nuclear weapons do to people when we need to make our great nation more powerful ? It is not a sad thing to become more powerful or is it not ?
