America's Nuclear Apocalypse - What Every Person Should Know About War


Chris Hedges: America's Nuclear Apocalypse - What Every Person Should Know About War (2005)





Iran, officially the Islamic Republic of Iran, is not known to currently possess weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and has signed treaties repudiating the possession of weapons of mass destruction including the Biological Weapons Convention, the Chemical Weapons Convention, and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Iran has first-hand knowledge of WMD effects—over 100,000 Iranian troops and civilians were victims of Chemical weapons during the 1980s Iran--Iraq War. On ideological grounds, a public and categorical religious decree (fatwa) against the development, production, stockpiling and use of nuclear weapons has been issued by the Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei along with other clerics, though it is approved by some relatively minor clerics. Iran has stated its uranium enrichment program is exclusively for peaceful purposes. The IAEA has confirmed the non-diversion of declared nuclear material in Iran but has also said it "needs to have confidence in the absence of possible military dimensions to Iran's nuclear programme. The IAEA has pointed out that Iran is not implementing the requirements of UN Security Council Resolutions and needs to cooperate to clarify outstanding issues and meet requirement to provide early design information on its nuclear facilities.

In 2012, sixteen U.S. intelligence agencies, including the CIA, reported that Iran was pursuing research that could enable it to produce nuclear weapons, but was not attempting to do so. The senior officers of all of the major American intelligence agencies stated that there was no conclusive evidence that Iran has made any attempt to produce nuclear weapons since 2003.[15] In a 2007 National Intelligence Estimate, the United States Intelligence Community assessed that Iran had ended all "nuclear weapon design and weaponization work" in 2003.[16] U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta stated in January 2012 stated that Iran was pursuing a nuclear weapons capability, but was not attempting to produce nuclear weapons.[17] In 2009, U.S. intelligence assessed that Iranian intentions were unknown.[18][19] Some European intelligence believe Iran has resumed its alleged nuclear weapons design work.[20] Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said he had seen no evidence of any nuclear weapons program in Iran,[21] while Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said Iran was close to having the capability to produce nuclear weapons.[22][23] Iran has called for nuclear weapons states to disarm and for the Middle East to be a nuclear weapon free zone.[24]
After the IAEA voted in a rare non-consensus decision to find Iran in non-compliance with its NPT Safeguards Agreement and to report that non-compliance to the UN Security Council,[25][26] the Council demanded that Iran suspend its nuclear enrichment activities[27][28] and imposed sanctions against Iran[29][30][31][32] when Iran refused to do so.[33] Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has argued that the sanctions are illegal.[34] The IAEA has been able to verify the non-diversion of declared nuclear material in Iran, but not the absence of undeclared activities.[35] The Non-Aligned Movement has called on both sides to work through the IAEA for a solution.[36]
In November 2009, the IAEA Board of Governors adopted[37] a resolution against Iran which urged Iran to apply the modified Code 3.1 to its Safeguard Agreement,[38] urged Iran to implement and ratify the Additional Protocol,[38] and expressed "serious concern" that Iran had not cooperated on issues that needed "to be clarified to exclude the possibility of military dimensions to Iran's nuclear program."[39] Iran said the "hasty and undue" resolution would "jeopardize the conducive environment vitally needed" for successful negotiations[39] and lead to cooperation not exceeding its "legal obligations to the body".

“If you are an ordinary person, then you can prepare yourself for war by moving to the countryside and building a farm, but you must take guns with you, as the hordes of starving will be roaming. Also, even though the elite will have their safe havens and specialist shelters, they must be just as careful during the war as the ordinary civilians, because their shelters can still be compromised.”

“The modern banking system manufactures money out of nothing. The process is, perhaps, the most astounding piece of sleight of hand that was ever invented. Banks can in fact inflate, mint and un-mint the modern ledger-entry currency.” Major L L B Angus

The few who understand the system will either be so interested in its profits or so dependent on its favours that there will be no opposition from that class, while on the other hand, the great body of the people mentally incapable of comprehending the tremendous advantage that capital derives from the system will bear its burdens without complaint and perhaps without even suspecting that the system is inimical to their interests.
The Rothschild Bros

"Debts must be collected, bonds and mortgages must be foreclosed as rapidly as possible. When, through a process of law, the common people lose their homes they will become more docile and more easily governed through the influence of the strong arm of government, applied by a central power of wealth under control of leading financiers.

This truth is well known among our principal men now engaged in forming an imperialism of Capital to govern the world.

By dividing the voters through the political party system, we can get them to expend their energies in fighting over questions of no importance. Thus by discreet action we can secure for ourselves what has been so well planned and so successfully accomplished."
