KEN STREMSKY DISCUSSES WEAPONS BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS I first became interested in deadly illnesses when I was a child when I heard about how the plague whiped out a significant portion of Europe's population hundreds of years ago. Yearl later, I found out that Alexander the Great used catapults to send people who had plague into fortresses. I know of one country which used blankets with smallpox on them to kill of aborginal inhabitants of the country. We need to research on vaccines against biological weapons. Biological weapons scare me more than any other type of weapon because they are as likely to harm the user as the weapons are to harm those the weapons are being used against. Someday, a biological weapon might be used that mutates and then kills of most of life on our planet. We need make sure that terrorists know that we will seriously consider using nuclear weapons against countries they care aboout if they use biological and/or nuclear weapons against us. NUCLEAR WEAPONS WE need to continually modernize our nuclear weapons arsenal. We need to maintain our nuclear weapons properly. We need to figure out better ways to store nuclear waste. Hopefully, we will figure out how to eliminate nuclear waste. We need to make sure we have enough nuclear weapons. WE should consider building a space vehicle with Russia that is capable of carrying nuclear weapons to an asteroid on a collision course with our planet. We should develop nuclear weapons capable of only destroying a small city.
