STOP WORLD DESTRUCTION

The Increasing Dangers of a Nuclear War,
Threats to NPT and New Zealand's Nuclear Free Law

Larry Ross, Founder of the New Zealand Nuclear Free Peacemaking Association
will speak on these issues anywhere.

 

Larry has worked 50 years for peace, against nuclear weapons & war, for a neutral, nuclear-free peacemaking New Zealand. He agrees with many experts who warn of increasing risks of a nuclear war.

This tour commemorates the 60th Anniversary of the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.  It supports the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), New Zealand's Nuclear Free Law and other legal barriers against the use of nuclear weapons.

New Zealand can help reverse the increasing dangers of nuclear war that could start by accident or intent; then quickly expand and destroy mankind.

It is factual and not anti-American to document that major nuclear war threats (but not all) come from the Bush Administration. These threats include:

1. Withdrawal from the ABM & other treaties
2. Developing 'Star Wars' types of weapons for world domination
3. Developing new nuclear weapons, such as “bunker busters”
4. New nuclear doctrines which threaten pre-emptive nuclear war, and introducing nuclear weapons into existing conventional conflicts. 
5. Inventing lies and doctrines to justify wars, then illegally invading Iraq with bombing, imprisoning, torturing.Then falsely blaming other nations, such as Iran, for the quagmire they have created.The Bush Administration has killed over 600,000 people in Iraq so far.
6. Threatening Iran and Syria, with war, massive bombing, and with nuclear weapons use against Iran.
7. Creating these new unjustified wars based on lies, new doctrines of using nuclear weapons, new nuclear weapons has created fears and uncertainty which has started a new nuclear arms race.
8. A total of 9 nuclear weapon states are a threat to humanity, because any use of nuclear weapons, by "accident, miscalculation, madness or intention" as President Kennedy warned, could rapidly spread and expand to a global holocaust. This would kill most life and poison the world forever.

HISTORIC NZ LAW BANS NUCLEAR WEAPONS, WARSHIPS, WAR

New Zealand's 1987 law bans Nuclear Weapons, Nuclear Warships and co-operation with those who “control nuclear weapons”.   It is one of the few laws that prevent New Zealand from being drawn ( 1 ) into ANZUS ( 2 ) into the US nuclear infrastructure ( 3 ) into US-led wars as the UK and Australia have been. The UK and Australia repeat Bush's lies to justify joining the US in waging illegal war on Iraq. They also support Bush's nuclear doctrines sanctioning the use of nuclear weapons against both non-nuclear, and nuclear- weapon states.
Sane allies - New Zealand, Canada, Germany and France have said “no” to Bush's illegal war policies and the killing of 600,000 Iraqi civilians. (See Lancet study)

NEW ZEALAND'S REPUTATION AS A DISARMAMENT LEADER,
AND ‘BEACON OF HOPE' IN A NUCLEAR-MAD WORLD, IS UNDER ATTACK.

Some New Zealand politicians wish to support US wars, rejoin nuclear ANZUS and, like the U.S., scrap New Zealand's Nuclear Free law. We must continue to educate strongly against pro-nuclear domestic and US pressures. Concerned citizens can give all New Zealand parties & MPs the evidence why We Should Keep NZ Nuclear Free, Independent, and War-Free. New Zealand must continue as a nuclear-free example, and as a peacemaker and disarmament leader. This tour will help publicise the New Zealand Nuclear Free message in your area.
