Nuclear Weapons


2023


GreenPolicy360: The work of Greg Mitchell is exceptional on multiple fronts -- two of the biggest topics he brings to us in vivid color are rock 'n roll history and then there are those nuclear weapons that the 1960s saw with the immediacy of the 'the End' (i.e. the nuclear close call of the Cuban Missile Crisis, not the Doors song.)

Greg Mitchell took a look this week at one of most controversial and important figures in American history, Dan Ellsberg of Pentagon Papers fame, and Greg reminded his readers that Dan was a nuclear war planner before he was asked by Robert McNamara to do a history of the Vietnam war. "The Doomsday Machine", the book Dan wrote several years before his recent death is placed under the spotlight by Mitchell and he informs us that a movie is now in development.

We asked Greg if we could republish what he wrote because it is essential reading, again and again. Take a look at what Mitchell is saying, and do consider signing up for his ongoing work via his Substack subscription. Greg is a unique voice in American life.



First, news about a new documentary based on Dan Ellsberg's award-winning book, "The Doomsday Machine".

October 27, 2016

The United Nations today adopted a landmark resolution to launch negotiations in 2017 on a treaty outlawing nuclear weapons. This historic decision heralds an end to two decades of paralysis in multilateral nuclear disarmament efforts.

At a meeting of the First Committee of the UN General Assembly, which deals with disarmament and international security matters, 123 nations voted in favour of the resolution, with 38 against and 16 abstaining.

The resolution will set up a UN conference beginning in March next year, open to all member states, to negotiate a “legally binding instrument to prohibit nuclear weapons, leading towards their total elimination”. The negotiations will continue in June and July.

The ‘No’ votes came from the nuclear weapons states, and U.S. allies in NATO, plus Japan, South Korea and Australia, which have treaty ties to the U.S., and consider themselves to be under the protection of the ‘U.S. nuclear umbrella.’
