Dude, I think you'll find, if you did your reasearch, that Fusion is the reaction of joining particulate matter, like what occurs in stars, and we have had very limited success in re-creating here on earth, and it is infact FISSION that is the power behind the atom/nuclear bomb as they use the principle of splitting atoms to create energetic chain reactions.
Either way, my jury is still out on this one. I don't believe they do have nukes, i do believe they want them. Do we have any right to tell them they can't have them? That would depend on what they want them for, detterence or offence, lets just wait and see.
