Hello! I want to initiate the topic "Universal Disarmament is a Must", I am not satisfied with this topic, because in my opinion Weapons are necessary to protect our home land from terrorists, Criminals & dishonest peoples. If the Universal Disarmament policy is applied then how is it possible to Protect our-self from dishonest peoples, because even though Universal Disarmament is applied criminal never fellow the policies.

War never decides who is wrong or who is right. It only states who are left. Every human being on this planet want a peaceful environment. We are not aware what wars are turning us into. Terrorism is a result of wars we had so far. And we are still fighting.

Earlier we were fighting with each other for power, money, resources with each other now, we are fighting with terrorism. But fight is still on. Its high time to put an end to this. Disarmament tough can't be employed in current scenario, because we have come to far and there is no way back now. You have chosen to fight. You have enemies, terrorism.

So my opinion on the question is that we can not get to this disarmament option but we can certainly find better way to bring peace. Gandhi was not a man it was a spirit and spirit never dies we have to bring that spirit among us. You may disagree with my statement but I consider you to think again over this statement.

Acquiring Assets and Power is always encouraged but these powers are meant to be used judiciously and for the right cause. Universal Disarmament could be practiced if you are sure that people will not forge the rules.

But people have variety of minds - be it a criminal mind, or a mahatma. Criminals does not care about the rules, so according to me it is impractical to practice universal disarmament. If people are good enough to think wisely, then despite possessing arms and ammunition, there will be no fight but only peace.

Therefore, in my point of view, weapons are for safety and security which should be used only when really required to defend yourself.

I tend to think that the universal disarmament is must . But agreement on universal disarmament should be made for the weapons of the mass destruction such like atomic bomb,hydrogen bomb.As we know the effect of these bombs on our society by the example of Nagasaki and Hiroshima bombing.If these type of incident happen again then there is a strong possibility that the existence of mankind on earth will be in danger.
The Nations should posses only those weapons which required for the self defence and repelling the terrorist groups.

Yes, universal disarmament is must, if every country came to an agreement then we can save a lot of economy of country. In India 2.4% of GDP is investing on military itself. If disarmament is accepted we can save these money. It can be used for other purpose. May be it looks very less in percentages but if we talk it in about rupees it is 2,50,000 crore, this much of money we can save.

What gandhiji did could be right in one way, but it resulted in injury of a large no. Of people without any cause which if used as strikers would result in early independence. He used non violence and disarmament which resulted in late independence and loss to the country. This could be reduced if we have followed the path of shaheed Bhagat singh. So disarmament should be done not by throwing your arms but make a pledge to not to use the arms till it comes to your life. In a country like India the political condition is so demanding that we have to use arms. Disarmament could only be done if done internationally. Which is just practically impossible without catastrophic disaster.

Well it might look that world without weapons would be peaceful and ideal. I fell that its impossible now to adopt policies of Universal Disarmament at this stage where the world is now standing. Its now time to develop more advance weapons so that no one can even dare to look at others area, or property or any thing.

I think disarmament will make a country weaker, because if a country has strong weapons another country will not dare to cause any harm and if we consider peace than it all depends on the people. If people decide to have no wars and live in peace then there will be no need of weapon but I think for the security of country it should own weapons.

According to my point of view, universal disarmament is not a must but nuclear disarmament or any weapon which causes mass destruction like hydrogen bomb etc is a must to disarm them all.

Definitely no. Everybody can't be Gandhi. And there is no point in being like 'Gandhi' in this present world. Its about the survival of the fittest. Do you think that human's affinity to non-violence is helping to maintain peace and harmony. No its the fear of losing them which helps in maintaining peace and harmony.

Had Japan knew that America would be capable of launching a deadliest bomb on it they would not even have started their ship from their harbour. That is why nations signal each other that 'they have invested these many millions for defense purpose' to safeguard themselves.

What is the point in eradicating poverty when a nation is not capable of providing security to its masses?
