Bin Laden And Hiroshima
In my view, use of nuclear weapons is always condemnable except when used in retaliation. While conventional weapons kill a man, nuclear weapons kill the species. It harms DNA in an inheritable way causing misery for generations to come. Perhaps Truman wouldn`t have used it if he knew this.

Nuclear weapons, unlike fire bombs, also harm the biosphere in a virtually irreparable way.

In my opinion there should be a global consensus on `no first use` of nuclear weapons at least on paper. The existence of a declation to this effect will act as a comfort to countries that are involved in active pursuit of such weapons for nuclear deterrance.

Above all there should be an unequivocal public opinion against the use (not necessarily against acquisition) especially first use that it should be just unthinkable for the man with the finger on the button. If there was public awareness about the effects of nuclear weapons on germplasm, there would not have been people celebrating on Times Square. For them it was just another big bomb.

Internet gives power to people like never before. It is the most powerful anti-bomb force in my opinion. My request: condemn the use of the bomb so forcefully that there are no more Trumans and Fatmans.

Pakistan’s Choice Re: # 573 Sorry, I thought he put you on a kind of Monkey Trial here. I think Haroon should be more worried about this lacuna rather than worrying about what the teacher said about Eid. However, I have no intention of raking up the issue again.

Pakistan’s Choice Just read a bit about the `Monkey Trial` Manto just mentioned. Interesting how an Islamiyat teacher would react to Darwin`s theory. I know here he mentioned it for a different reason.

Recent Terror in Egypt Re: # 134 I think overall one can say that Jinnah and Nehru were not `idealist` secularists but `pragmatist` secularists considering these 14 points and events around them.

Pakistan’s Choice Re: # 85 Haroon: Interesting that Nehru might be responsible for the mess towards the west of your eastern border and the state to the east of it.

Recent Terror in Egypt Re: # 79 Looks like Mr. Jinnah has been proved to be quite unambititious for Muslims. In the present Indian scenario 33% votes en block would mean a Prime Ministership and all the cabinet. This situation is not likely to end any soon either.
