REINFORCING THE IMPERIUM: JOSEPH GERSON ON THE US NUCLEAR ARSENAL

[ https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article ... ar-arsenal ]

Friends,

Ten days ago or so, based on my book Empire and the Bomb, Ian Sinclair at Morning Star in London asked me to do a written interview with him on the history and roles of the U.S. nuclear arsenal. It was published last week, and I thought to share it with you.

We’ll also be going deeper on Nov. 29 with our in person and virtual “The Urgency of Disarmament” conference with Nobel Peace Laureate Setsuko Thurlow and nuclear weapons abolitionists from the U.S., Japan, Britain and Germany. Join us if you can.

The Urgency of Disarmament: International Action to Prevent Nuclear Confrontations and War
November 29, 7-9 p.m.

Scandinavia House, 2nd floor - 58 PARK AVENUE (between 38th and 37th)

The Treaty for Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons is a critically important vehicle in the struggle to prevent nuclear war and to create a nuclear weapons-free world.

But it’s not enough!

With the tectonic geopolitical changes and intensifying confrontations between great and lesser nuclear powers and proliferation pressures from Seoul to Tehran, and arms racing with nuclear “modernization”, cyber, AI, and other high-tech weaponry, we respond to the urgency of the moment.

Join us for a unique and uniquely important forum which will feature:

Setsuko Thurlow, Hiroshima Hibakusha and co-recipient of Nobel Peace Prize
Reiner Braun, International Peace Bureau
Jackie Cabasso, Western States Legal Foundation
Molly McGinty, International Physicians for Prevention of Nuclear War
Tom Unterrainer, Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament and Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation
Emad Kiyaei, Middle East Treaty Organization
Gaku Kogosuri, Gensuikyo
(Japan Council against A- & H-Bombs)

We look forward to seeing you at the event!

Organized by: International Peace Bureau, Peace Action New York State, Brooklyn For Peace, and Campaign for Peace, Disarmament and Common Security, Rosa Luxemburg Stitung–New York Office.
