[NukeNet] Congress, Bush Hand India WMD/Nuclear Materials

[Bill Smirnow]

  Nuclear reactors shouldn't exist. They are an abomination in and of themselves. They should be described as stationary radiological nuclear weapons. NO one, country, entity should have them. No rational person would entertain their existence. Irrespective of who has them, they are inherently massively dangerous throwing aside 100% the proliferation issue.

   The USA is responsible for immense terror on earth but that dosen't mean that most other countries are simply innocent victims. Look at the litany of vile regimes and people populating every country on earth with their right wing and moderate views on every issue under the sun- Iran, Iraq, the Wall Streets and Pentagons of the world, Russia, China, Pakistan, India, etc., etc.

   I don't have time for more, have to run. Let's keep things and the entire planet and it's politics/economics/media in objective perspective.

   No-Nukes for ANYONE,

                                          -Bill Smirnow

  Dear Friends

  Whilst I am totally opposed to nuclear proliferation [since 1974, when India imploded its Made-In-India device] I am equally opposed to activism barring India from trading nuclear weapons and reactors.

  The villain is the USA. It is the only country that has used nuclear weapons against another, it has consistently used weapons of indiscriminate destruction [WIDs] against civilians. All over the world.

  Instead of telling the Government of India and US Congressmen to impose/restrict proliferation, please raise your voice against use of WIDs. And the US Government is the one that should be restrained from using WIDs. In the process, ban all exports from the US. Fight to curb the proliferation of WIDs, HAARP, and otehr unknown weapons that can be misused to further US imperialistic agenda. In doing so, you would be helping us who are fighting against puppets of the US administration, right here, in India. Please note this: every Government today with a few exceptions [Venezuela, Cuba, to some extent Russia & China] is co-opted by your own Government, the Government of GHWB. 

  Don't mislead people. It is the Government of the US that is responsible for over 100 million civilian deaths in the 20th C. It is the single most devilish power on earth today. And most of you are living on credit, expropriated from the rest of the world as economic rent for US-assured survival. If we refuse to buy your nuclear reactor, or even oil, paid for in US dollar, this country will be bombed to stone age. 

  Set your house in order.

    WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush
    will sign into law on Monday a civil nuclear
    cooperation deal that allows the United States to
    sell nuclear technology to India, the White House
    said.

    Congress gave final approval on Saturday to the
    legislation which the Bush administration and its
    allies say will expand ties with the world's
    largest democracy and open up billions of dollars
    in trade for U.S . companies.

    Critics say the legislation, which helps clear the
    way for India to buy U.S. nuclear reactors and
    fuel, will undermine efforts to curb the spread of
    nuclear weapons.

    But congressional sponsors said the legislation 
    included some restraints, such as requiring the
    president to stop U.S. exports of nuclear
    materials if India tested another nuclear device
    as it did in 1998.

    India said it views the nuclear cooperation deal 
    as a big step forward but it was wary of
    conditions attached to it by Congress.

    ``The government has taken note of certain
    extraneous and prescriptive provisions in the
    legislation,'' India's Foreign Minister Pranab 
    Mukherjee told parliament.

    The deal reversed 30 years of U.S. policy that had
    opposed nuclear cooperation with India because the
    country developed nuclear weapons in contravention
    of international standards and never signed the 
    Non-Proliferation Treaty.
