WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION

Weapons of mass destruction

The problem background

The problem pertains to the idea that the Earth should be a zone free from weapons of mass destruction. The term weapons of mass destruction is defined as any type of nuclear, biological, radiological or chemical weapons that could be used for destruction of masses on a large scale. The strategic concept of the American policy is to destroy the weapons of mass destruction implying that it is the planet inhabiting human beings, and therefore, it has to be free from the weapons of mass destruction.

The initiate began when the American intelligence found out that there are weapons in the Asian region that are being used for terrorism against the people. The intelligence found out that the world is going towards a mass terrorism, and it approaches a stringent policy that called the NATO forces for alliance in the year 1999. The alliance called out for the destruction of such weapons, as well as, the invasion of the places where there are weapons of mass destruction.

The weapons of mass destruction affect the entire world including the United States. The anti-American policies of Korea, Iraq, Iran and others are a clear evident that America is under threat, since the policies of the respective countries, as well as, the stock of nuclear weapons. In all these cases, the initiate for the weapons of mass destruction is a commendable response to counter the problem.

The decision has led the United States to major challenges such as debt crises, budget deficit, and risking the US military. It has achieved multiple targets and killed many who are behind the accumulation of such weapons, however, there are multiple targets still to be achieved and the foreign funding is running short in this regard (Goldstein, 2006).
