Abstract
nuclear weapons are as controversial and notorious today as they were in August 1945 when the first atomic weapon was dropped on Hiroshima. These "weapons of mass destruction" inspire awe and fear, and some believe will eventually result in Armageddon. This paper will endeavor to analyze the extent to which the problem of nuclear weapons is serious, the causes of this problem, and how these weapons be controlled or eliminated. The problem of nuclear weapons is a serious one, especially as it relates to arms control reductions, the containment of the nuclear ambitions of states like China, Indian and Pakistan, and the control of rogue states like North Korea and Iran, as well as the terrorist issue. However, the good news is that these weapons can be controlled, and control could lead ultimately to elimination, so long as the USA and Russia set an example and take the lead in arms control.
