"Public ignorance and apathy is a concern for survival of the specie"
"Public ignorance and apathy is a concern for survival of the specie," warned former US Attorney General Ramsey Clark, in his forward to nuclear physicist Micho Kaku's To Win a Nuclear War: The Pentagon's Secret War Plans.
A single Trident II submarine can inflict more death than all prior wars in history. Twenty-four missiles, launched while submerged, each with seventeen independently targeted, maneuverable nuclear warheads five times more powerful than the atom bomb that destroyed Nagasaki, can travel 5,000 nautical miles to strike within 300 feet of 408 predetermined targets. Nuclear winter might follow even if no other weapons are used.(Ramsey Clark)
If the US government for inhumane and specious reasoning used nuclear weapons twice, what assurance can be imagined that it would not for inhumane and reckless reasoning use nuclear weapons a third time?
In his 1879 Perspective on War and Peace Henry George concluded what seems applicable to today in America .
Social arrangements not based on the fundamental and equal human right to the earth lead inevitably to a gross imbalance of political power and thus to government corruption, odious public debt, war, and preparations for further war.( "Henry George's Perspective on War and Peace," American Journal of Economics and Sociology, October 2021)
We have met the enemy and he is us": - Walt Kelly [11]
