Ban ALL Weapons

As we all know North Korea recently became the 9th member of the nuclear club, that has outraged the international community.

After Kim Jong-il was described as a major part of "The Axis of Evil" by Bush, and then witnessing the United states defiance of the 192 members of the United Nations (except UK & Australia) in invading Iraq for possession of weapons that did not exist.

North Korean's leader Kim Jong-il really was given no choice but to guarantee the safety of his country. No nuclear power has ever had its territorial sovereignty invaded by another country.

The hypocrisy floating around at the moment astounds me.

The U.S. is the most aggressive nation on earth. Since World War II, the US has used force against another state on more than 30 occasions - the most notable examples being Vietnam, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Cambodia, Korea, Grenada, Afghanistan and Iraq (twice).

Nicaragua and Iraq were illegal yet the total of international sanctions levied against America is zero. When it comes to doing what it wants, the US enjoys unprecedented freedom.

So before we all jump on the U.S. bandwagon in pulling the North Koreans into line. We should remember that any weapons including nuclear weapons are a scourge on humanity. Anything that has its efficiency rated by how many human beings cane be wiped of this planet should be destroyed.

Hopefully the United States will show what we expect from the most advanced democracy in the world and destroy some of its own nuclear weapons before labelling other countries as outlaws for acquiring nuclear weapons.

Let us not forget that the U.S. has more nuclear weapons than the total of every country in the world.

I say the yanks will be getting there long sought after base up in the Northern Territory, doubling the population as Howard gives the reach around.... Theory, Bush needs some major shit to come down fast as his latest weapons - Metamaterials will soon be harnessed by the rest of the world including N.Korea. this enables him to operate through EMP blasts from small nuclear weapons and have aircraft completely invisible to radar and communications. He has everything by the balls at the moment and knows that this is the last chance for him and dad to claim enough of the world to compete with the ever growing China.If there is ever a moment when WWIII could come about it's around the corner....Plus all the big big big boys know that a few hundred million less people around would make life a little easier for them..????
