At the time, I never thought or talked to anyone about the deaths, maiming and destruction that our submarine would have caused. Happily, we never had to fire those missiles with real warheads on them. I now realize how horribly wrong, immoral and illegal all wars, occupations, empire building and offensive weapons especially nuclear are." "I am now firmly convinced that many others will come to understand this also and we will rapidly phase out all offensive weapons systems - nuclear weapons, submarines, armed drones and nuclear power and permanently get rid of poverty and wars. The Strategic Plan which calls for immediate cease fires, permanently ending U.S. wars, occupations, empire building and converting 100% of the military industrial complex to support a peaceful, prosperous green world with zero involuntary layoffs."
