North Korea just tested a nuclear bomb! Bye bye Nuclear
Nonproliferation Treaty! Everyone is furious at North Korea, and there
are fears that everyone near North Korea (Japan, South Korea, Thailand,
Vietnam) will go nuclear too. Its clear to me that drastic and creative
action is needed to prevent a regional nuclear arms race. I therefore
propose the following creative proposal:
I: The U.S. offer to negotiate a treaty to abolish all nuclear weapons
worldwide, but insist that North Korea and Iran first freeze all their
nuclear activities, and let the IAEA verify said freeze. If North Korea
and/or Iran refuse, we would be able to mobilize the entire world
against whichever nation had the audacity to block the worldwide
abolition of nuclear weapons. For once, the U.S. would have the entire
world, and the peace movement on its side! |

I doubt it. Whilst the news of North Korea's actions is not good, the rest
of the world is not going to appreciate the U.S. dictating who should and
who should not have nuclear capability. Is the U.S. about to give up its
nuclear deterrant? I doubt it somehow...
I offer the following refinement to my idea: The U.S., Russia, China, Japan,
and South Korea jointly present the following proposal to North Korea:
I: All six nations freeze their nuclear weapons activities, let the IAEA
verify those freezes, and jointly push for the negotiation of a treaty to
abolish nuclear weapons all over the world. If North Korea agrees, it
becomes a hero, and the other 5 would normalize relations and provide
massive economic aid. If North Korea refuses, then President Bush would
have a field day vilifying North Korea, and would have a much easier time
assembling an international posse to invade North Korea and disarm it by
force! |
