American President Barack Obama recently hosted and addressed the 4th Nuclear Security Summit (NSS) that is aimed at preventing nuclear terrorism. However an endlessly mendacious Obama ignored the failure over long-term storage of nuclear waste, the unconscionable US Alliance dispersal of depleted uranium in US war zones around the world, and the massive reality of state nuclear terrorism in which Humanity is existentially threatened by the nuclear terrorism of 9 nuclear weapons states, specifically (with upper estimates of nuclear weapons in brackets) the US (7,315), Russia (8,000), Apartheid Israel (400), France (300), UK (250), China (250), Pakistan (120), India (100), and North Korea (less than 10).
The essence of Obama's speech [1] is contained in the following 4 quotes that have been subjected to analysis revealing the profound dishonesty of the world's current number 1 nuclear terrorist, Barack Obama:
(1) “ Good morning, everybody. It is my privilege to welcome you to Washington and to formally convene our fourth Nuclear Security Summit. I convened our first summit -- six years ago, in this same room -- because the danger of a terrorist group obtaining and using a nuclear weapon is one of the greatest threats to global security…
(2) We've made nuclear security a priority at the highest levels. And I want to thank all my fellow leaders -- from more than 50 nations and key international organizations -- for your commitment to this work and being here today. Some of you were here for our very first summit; many of you have since taken office and joined this work. But it's a reminder that the task of protecting our citizens transcends political ideologies, parties and administrations. To date, our nations have made some 260 specific commitments to improve nuclear security -- and so far, three-quarters of these steps have been implemented. More than a dozen nations have removed all their highly enriched uranium and plutonium. Countries have removed or disposed of several tons of this deadly material. Nations have improved their nuclear security, including stronger regulations and more physical security of nuclear facilities, and more nations are cooperating to prevent nuclear smuggling. Leading up to this summit, nations have fulfilled additional commitments. Argentina, Switzerland, Uzbekistan all successfully eliminated all their highly enriched uranium from their countries. China recently opened its new center for promoting nuclear security and training, and I'm pleased that the United States and China are cooperating on nuclear security. And Japan is working to complete the removal of more than half a ton of highly enriched uranium and plutonium, which is the largest project in history to remove nuclear material from a country. I'm also pleased to announce that in recent days, after many years of work, 102 nations have now ratified a key treaty -- the Convention on the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material. As a result, we expect that the treaty will enter into force in the coming weeks -- giving us more tools that we need to work together in the event of theft of nuclear material or an attack on a nuclear facility…
(3) For the first time in a decade, we're providing a public inventory of our stockpiles of highly enriched uranium, which could be used for nuclear weapons, and that inventory is one that we have reduced considerably. When it comes to our nuclear-powered ships and submarines, we're exploring ways to further reduce our holdings of highly enriched uranium…
(4) And that's why our work here remains so critical. The single most effective defense against nuclear terrorism is fully securing this material so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands in the first place. This is difficult. At hundreds of military and civilian facilities around the world, there's still roughly 2,000 tons of nuclear material, and not all of this is properly secured. And just the smallest amount of plutonium -- about the size of an apple -- could kill and injure hundreds of thousands of innocent people. It would be a humanitarian, political, economic, and environmental catastrophe with global ramifications for decades. It would change our world. So we cannot be complacent. We have to build on our progress. We have to commit to better security at nuclear facilities; to removing or disposing of more dangerous material; to bringing more nations into treaties and partnerships that prevent proliferation and smuggling; and to making sure that we have the architecture in place to sustain our momentum in the years ahead. With so many members of the global coalition against ISIL here today, this will also be an opportunity to make sure that we're doing everything in our power to keep a terrorist group like ISIL from ever getting its hands not just on a nuclear weapon, but any weapon of mass destruction”.
Analysis.
(1) “The danger of a terrorist group obtaining and using a nuclear weapon”.
Obama dishonestly focuses on non-state terrorists who, thank goodness, do not currently have (a) nuclear weapons or (b) nuclear material for a dirty conventional bomb that would devastate economically by widely distributing deadly radioactivity [2]. However Obama ignores the vastly more dangerous state terrorists who do have nuclear weapons, are responsible for massive nuclear waste pollution, and variously have sanctioned and enabled corporate terrorists (e.g. those responsible for the Fukushima disaster) [3, 4].
A nuclear exchange between nuclear terrorist states would wipe out most of Humanity (current population about 7.3 billion) , successively through the initial instantaneous destruction of cities, subsequent deaths from burns and radiation sickness from radioactive fallout, and finally through a “Nuclear Winter” decimating agriculture, photosynthesis and photosynthate-based life in general. While imposing deadly Sanctions on Iran (that has zero nuclear weapons and repeatedly states that it does not want nuclear weapons and wants a nuclear weapons-free Middle East), the US (7,315 nuclear weapons) is boosting its nuclear and conventional forces in Asia and Australia and continues to pour billions of dollars of military aid into the war criminal, genocidally racist, ethnic cleansing and nuclear terrorist rogue state of Apartheid Israel that reportedly has up to 400 nuclear weapons. The upper estimates of stored nuclear weapons are as follows: US (7,315), Russia (8,000), Apartheid Israel (400), France (300), UK (250), China (250), Pakistan (120), India (100), and North Korea (less than 10). Apartheid Israel, India , Pakistan, North Korea and South Sudan have not ratified the Nuclear non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) [4]. Nuclear exchanges have almost occurred accidentally several times in the last half century [5] and in several instances have only been averted by the sane actions of particular courageous and humane individuals e.g. Commander Vasili Alexandrovich Arkhipov (1962) and Lieutenant Colonel Stanislav Yevgrafovich Petrov (1983) [6, 7].
The US leads the world in actual nuclear terrorism through its killing of 200,000 civilians through the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. It is claimed that the US may have used a neutron bomb to secure the Baghdad airport in the war criminal US, UK and Australian invasion of Iraq in 2003 [9, 10]. The US continues to develop nuclear weapons, a plethora of pro-Zionist and Zionist psychopaths advocate “nuke Iran”, and now loose cannon US presidential candidate, Donald Trump, espouses more nuclear proliferation.
(2) “We've made nuclear security a priority at the highest levels”.
This assertion by mendacious Obama is contrary to the following realities:
(a) Only 50 nations attended the Nuclear Security Summit and Russia was notable for its absence.
(b) Pro-Zionism and pro-Apartheid Obama failed to mention nuclear terrorist, genocidally racist, racist Zionist-run, democracy-by-genocide Apartheid Israel that has up to 400 nuclear weapons to help maintain a minority racist Zionist government (the Indigenous Palestinian subjects of Apartheid Israel now represent over 50% of the population ruled by Apartheid Israel but 73% are excluded from voting and are highly-abusively confined to the Gaza Concentration Camp or West Bank ghetto Bantustans without human rights, without charge or trial, and merely for the asserted “crime” of being Indigenous Palestinians living in a tiny portion of 90% ethnically cleansed Palestine) [8, 11-15]. Possession of hundreds of nuclear weapons by genocidally racist, serial invader Apartheid Israel is a huge threat to Humanity.
(c) Notwithstanding controversy over effects of low level radiation, a fundamental tenet of radiation safety remains that radiation damage is directly proportional to radiation dose and there is no threshold [2]. This conservative position informs physical radiation safety arrangements for radiation workers that are designed to minimize exposure to radiation and ingestion of radioactive material [2]. Despite this, and despite evidence for the chemical toxicity and teratogenicity (birth–defect-causing) properties of depleted uranium (uranium with a lower level of fissile U-235), countries of the US Alliance, notably the US, UK, Apartheid Israel and Saudi Arabia have variously used depleted uranium-containing weapons in Libya, Palestine (notably in the Gaza Concentration Camp), Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Afghanistan [16]. This indiscriminate and widespread pollution with depleted uranium has been applied by the US Alliance against a swathe of Muslim countries but would be totally forbidden within the US itself and constitutes s a war crime.
(d) According to ICAN (International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons): “Nuclear weapons are the only weapons of mass destruction not yet explicitly prohibited under international law. The Humanitarian Pledge is a commitment by nations to fill this unacceptable “legal gap”. It offers a platform from which they can – and must – launch negotiations on a treaty banning nuclear weapons”. 127 countries have so far signed this Pledge [8, 17]. France and the Anglosphere members of the US Alliance are notable for not signing the Pledge. Thus, for example, while Australia has no actual nuclear weapons of its own, it has hosted nuclear tests and testing of nuclear weapons delivery systems, hosts nuclear armed war ships, plays a key role in US nuclear terrorism through its Pine Gap joint US-Australian communications facility, and under the present pro-war, pro-Zionist, US lackey Coalition Government slavishly supports US and Israeli war policies and is doing its best to oppose a Nuclear Weapons Ban. Thus the Sydney Morning Herald reported (2014): “ In October 2013, according to the documents released under freedom-of-information law, Australia refused a request by New Zealand to endorse a 125-nation joint statement at the United Nations highlighting the humanitarian consequences of any use of nuclear weapons.'' Australia objected to a sentence declaring that it is in the interest of humanity that nuclear weapons are never used again, ''under any circumstances''. A group of 16 nations, including Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa and New Zealand, have been working to highlight the humanitarian effects of nuclear weapons. That diplomatic campaign is intended to lay the ground for negotiation of a convention that would prohibit nuclear weapons - putting them in the same category as chemical and biological weapons, which are already prohibited under international law… declassified documents have revealed that the government's primary concern is that a nuclear weapons ban would ''cut across'' Australia's reliance on US nuclear deterrence” [18].
(e) The US and other nuclear industry countries have not yet found a suitable location for safe long-term storage of nuclear waste. However there is currently a major push for Australia to store the world's nuclear waste in remote Central Australia, a proposal that is made more alarming by the presence of up to 2,500 child-killing US Marines in US lackey Australia's Northern Territory and proposals for an even greater presence in northern Australia of US military, potentially nuclear –armed US navy and potentially nuclear-armed US strategic bombers. The US has a dirty record of interference in Australia, notably the CIA-backed coup against the reformist Whitlam Government in 1975 over the Pine Gap communications base that is crucial for US nuclear terrorism, the US veto of Labor leader Mark Latham in 2004 over his election campaign promise to bring Australian soldiers back from Iraq, and the US-approved, mining-company-backed and pro-Zionist-led Coup against the Rudd Labor Government in 2010 [19]. If, as envisaged by some, Australia became the world's nuclear waste storehouse, one can realistically envision US military takeover of Australia (for “freedom” and “world peace” of course) if a progressive Australian Government backed out of the arrangement.
(3) “We're exploring ways to further reduce our holdings of highly enriched uranium”.
In the past the US was able to reduce “holdings of highly enriched uranium” by sending such material to Apartheid Israel as in the 1965 Apollo Affair, illegal and utterly irresponsible transfers that led to the ruling colonizer Zionist minority of Palestine acquiring up to 400 nuclear weapons [8, 20, 21].
(4) “The single most effective defense against nuclear terrorism is fully securing this material so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands in the first place… we're doing everything in our power to keep a terrorist group like ISIL from ever getting its hands not just on a nuclear weapon, but any weapon of mass destruction”.
Mendacious Obama finds refuge in “terror hysteria” by touting the extremely remote if terrifying prospect that barbarous ISIL rebels - with no industry and hiding in caves and in bombing-devastated towns from conventional, guided missile and drone bombing - might nevertheless be able to acquire nuclear weapons. Obama ignores the actuality of genocidally racist, serial invader, nuclear terrorist states, namely the US, UK, France and Apartheid Israel, having already acquired huge numbers of nuclear weapons, with the worst such state, the US, having repeatedly used nuclear weapons to mass murder 250,000 civilians. Further, these nuclear terrorist US Alliance countries are notorious serial invaders of other countries - thus the US has invaded 70 countries, the UK 193, France 80, Apartheid Israel 12 and formerly UK lackey and now US lackey Australia 85 [22-26].
Conclusions
Mendacious Obama is the world's worst nuclear terrorist and is also presently as president of the US the world's worst operating serial invader, worst human rights abuser, worst genocidal killer and most deadly drug pusher. The nuclear-armed US Alliance led by Obama is presently undertaking military operations in a swathe of 20 impoverished countries from Mauritania to the Philippines that have suffered 27 million avoidable deaths from deprivation and about 5 million deaths from violence since the US Government's false flag operation on 9-11 [27]. Obama has continued the Iraqi Genocide, Afghan Genocide, Somali Genocide and Muslim Genocide, and through unwavering support for a genocidal Apartheid Israel continues to make Americans complicit in the ongoing Palestinian Genocide [28]. Thanks to George Bush and Barack Obama, 1.2 million people have died world-wide since 9-11 due to US Alliance restoration of the Taliban-destroyed Afghan opium industry from 6% of world market share in 2001 to 93% in 2007, the breakdown (as of 2015) including 280,000 Americans, 256,000 Indonesians, 68,000 Iranians, 25,000 British, 14,000 Canadians, 10,000 Germans, and 5,000 Australians [29].
Our world is acutely threatened by nuclear weapons (that threaten the very existence of Humanity), poverty (that kills 17 million people each year) and man climate change (that threatens to wipe out all but 0.5 billion people this century). The US led by Obama is a world leader in nuclear terrorism, One Percenter-dominated inequity (with the One Percenters owning half of the world's wealth) and deadly, ecocidal capitalism that acutely threatens Humanity and the Biosphere. A comprehensive Nuclear Weapons Ban is needed to avoid an accidental full-scale nuclear catastrophe and a consequent Nuclear Winter that will wipe out most of Humanity and the Biosphere [8].
Nuclear terrorist Obama has 8 months to go as president but may be replaced either by the odiously bigoted demagogue Donald Trump or by mass murderess Hillary Clinton whose obscene utterance “We came, we saw, he died” provides an epitaph for Libya, formerly a pro-woman, secular state and the richest country in impoverished Africa but wantonly and unforgivably devastated and consigned to endless sectarian civil war by the France, UK and US (FUKUS) Alliance. For all the likelihood of a first ever female president and American rhetoric about defending Western civilization from fundamentalist Muslim terrorists, US policy resolutely backs the misogynist, sectarian, state terrorist, war criminal and climate criminal Saudi dictatorship, has eliminated secular, pro-woman regimes in the Muslim world, specifically in Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya, and most recently has devastated Syria in attempted removal of the secular Assad regime [30]. American propaganda ignores the Elephant in the Room reality that state terrorism by serial invader, US Alliance nuclear terrorist states is far, far worse than evil and repugnant non-state terrorism [3, 31].
Every person must stand up for Humanity and the Biosphere in the One Percenter War on Terra led by America under mendacious, war criminal and climate criminal Obama. What can decent people do? Decent people must (a) inform everyone they can and (b) urge and apply Boycotts, Divestment & Sanctions (BDS) against all politicians, parties, corporations and countries disproportionately complicit in nuclear terrorism.
