Afskaffelse af atomvåben – den altoverskyggende
terrortrussel bør sættes på dagsordenen.
Obama har en vision om total afskaffelse af atomvåben - den alvorligste terrortrussel - og skærpet af at USA og NATO stadig fastholder retten til som de første at bruge atomvåben. Vi må spørge kandidaterne til EU-parlamentet hvordan de har det med denne Avåbenpolitik i EU?
Obama har taget konkrete skridt til at sætte nedrustning af atomvåben på den sikkerhedspolitiske dagsorden , så vi må tro på at han mener det og støtte det.
Men som Jan Øberg skriver nedenfor så har medierne i mange år ikke set vennernes inkl. Israels A-våben som et problem og derfor heller ikke hidtil interesseret sig for perspektiverne i Obamas vision og sat atomafrustning på dagsordenen.
(OG det gælder vist også vores meget svage fredsbevægelse?)
Dog har Jørgen Dragssdahl behandlet atomvåbennedrustningsperspektiverne i hhv Information og DRs p1 orientering som en hæderlig undtagelse her i Danmark jf også Dragsdahl egen hjemmeside http://www.dragsdahl.dk/ som kan anbefales herom. og så er det på dansk.
Og her giver fredsforsker Jan Øbeg (også) medierne en håndsrækning til at komme igang:

It simply
isn't right. It threatens humankind. It militates against pluralism, and the
idea of public service.
The only
thing your mainstream media are likely to tell you about nuclear weapons is
related to, say, North Korea and Iran, i.e to the risk of proliferation to
"irreponsible" states.
The very
existence of nuclear weapons, nuclear possession, is not an issue. Mainstream
media almost never highlight the terrorist nature of the weapons in the
arsenals of the United States, Russia, France, Britain, China, and Israel or
the theory of 'balance of terror' that holds all of humankind as hostages to
total destruction - a clear indication that nuclear states are terrorist
states.
Oh my,
who'd dare say that in the media!?
They never
tell you that if a serious accident involving nuclear happens, the consequences
could be million-fold worse than even the worst terrorist attack. They
invariably forget to tell you about such accidents or put them at the bottom of
page 63.
Compared
with 20 years ago, there are much fewer media people today who have even a
basic knowledge, let alone any intellectual understanding, of these weapons,
deterrence doctrines and strategies, their technical aspects, radioactivity and
ethics. Neither do get the obvious idea to ask how many billions of dollars the
world is wasting on these weapons in times of crisis.
They don't
tell you, in other words, what it means to live in the nuclear age - that there
is no country who ever asked their people whether they want to be
"defended" by nuclear weapons. No wonder - people say no to being
hostages to terorism.
They don't
even raise the issue about democracy , terrorism and nuclear weapons or whether
leaders of the Western world are that much morally superior and mentally
healthy than other leaders.
Young
people no longer learn about the existence of nuclear weapons or about
nuclearism - the belief that these weapons are rational tools in the arsenals
of security and democracy. They - like many other citizens - don't know that we
could all be gone in a few hours.
Indeed
Albert Einstein was right when he stated that "The unleashed power of the
atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking and we thus drift toward
unparalleled catastrophe."
Few
listened then. Fewer now. It simply isn't right. It threatens humankind. And
somebody is responsible for this sorry state of information and the absence of
debate. Some elites do not want you and me to be concerned, let alone know the
mad facts.
We can
either wake up - if we can - when the nuclear weapons are again used or we can
take action now.
TFF and its
Associates are among the few institutions that persistently take serious the
human duty to inform about the madness of nuclearism in the hope that we'll
abolish nuclear weapons - like we have absolute monarchy, slavery, child
labour, cannibalism. N
Nuclearism
is fundamentally incompatible with any definition of democracy, freedom,
humanity and civilization. Nuclearism holds 6,3 billion people worldwide
hostages. It is time we make up the account with the real terrorists.
Knowledge
and dialogue will be important, and so will non-violent confrontation with the
nuclear terrorists, not those who don't even have these weapons.
For the
knowledge dimension, begin here:

Can Obama
do better than Reagan on nuclear arms control?
A fifty
percent reduction in the nuclear weapons' arsenal of Russia and the U.S. was
proposed by President Obama this past weekend. President Medvedev seems to be
receptive. What neither have mentioned is that we have been here before...in
1986.
