Nuclear weapon free zone (NWFZ) in the Mid East/World? What about that?

reposted of Mark Gaffney

Friends, we must work together to prevent a catastrophe. We must stop the next Middle East war before it starts.

The US government must turn over to the United Nations the primary responsibility for resolving the deepening crisis in Iraq, and, immediately thereafter, withdraw US forces from the country.

We must also prevail upon the Israelis to sign the Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT) and open all of their nuclear sites to IAEA inspectors.

Only then can serious talks begin with Iran and other states to establish a nuclear weapon free zone (NWFZ) in the Mid East –– so essential to the region's long-term peace and security.

How about a weapon free zone across the planet? All weapons... nuclear, chemical, biological, mechanical, psychological...

Not a likely outcome. Your intentions are good, Solve et...

The cards have already been dealt.
The players know each other...

As soon as one shows weakness, the stakes will be raised enough for them to want to fold. Or they will lose Money and Life...

I'm afraid theres not much that We at Hypography can 'really' do to unsettle Global Warfare...

Refer to Turtle's Survival Wagon.

No one wants World War 3. Which is why it hasn't happened yet. The key word being YET..

Where's a good Alien Invasion that would Unite Humankind when you need one???

Sorry for the Poker analogy, but Damn if Poker wasn't a great Metaphor..

Well, of course, not if you keep thinking like that!

[Racoon]

Oh, and as far as The League of Nations,, er.. United Nations goes.. One could speculate that they aren't exactly concerned with the best interest of You in mind.

What then Might you suggest InfiniteNow?
How can you at Hypography advert the ills of this world??

I agree, negative thinking, coupled with inaction will acheive very little.
Good Communication can ease the worried mind.

Really? That's the only way, we just cannot limit it to Hypography. By sharing ideas and exploring inspiration with others, new ideas will come and will be implemented. So, I can change the ills of the world at Hypography by suggesting something which acts as a seed crystal in the minds of others who then do the same... like dominoes... and poof. The world as we know it has changed.

See, wasn't that simple?



Now, if I could just get past the dick and fart jokes...

A noble ambition.

What do you have against the people of Iraq? US forces will withdraw when the democratically elected government of Iraq requests that they do so. The UN doesn't want to be there when the times get tough, so they would essentially leave the people of Iraq to well armed mobs lead by local warlords. The seeds of stability that are currently being planted would quickly wither and die opening Iraq for invasion by ambitious neighbors eager for control of the oil found there. Sounds like a grand situation!

The only thing that has kept the radical non-elected anti-sematic governments at bay and allowed the Israelies to survive this long is fear that they would use nukes in self defense. The Israeli government has shown amazing restraint over the years considering the terrorism they have been subjected to and general ambivolence they receive in the region. Taking the nuclear threat away from their defense would mean that conventional warfare would break out within days. And that would be so much better for everyone.

Any other fresh ideas for a bright and secure future?
