nuclear

Iran should not have a nuclear weapon. Okay. Sounds good. Why not though? The answer is stunningly hypocritical. I can think of a few current world leaders who have access to nuclear weapons, and are a threat to the world.

Maybe it is time that we grow up as a (so called intelligent) species and collectively decide that no country in the world should have any nuclear weapons. Maybe it is time for the leaders of the world to start acting like real leaders and agree to disarm and scrap their entire nuclear arsenals. If anyone has a problem with the plan, then maybe they should all pack their shit, and board the next shuttle to go live on one of the other planets that is suitable for human life. Oh, wait! That is right! This is the only planet we have. You would think that we would have sorted our differences out by now.

We could also stop giving all the power to stupid greedy psychopaths who have no desire to choose diplomacy over bullying, threats, greed, isolation, violence and wealth hoarding. The ones who don't want to accept that there is no turning back from globalization. The ones who have no desire at all to meet anyone half way on anything. To them it is always my way all the way, all the time, or go fuck yourself. They seem to exist solely to support a system that is failing to provide the basic necessities of life for far too many, and leaves too many on the edge. All so that they, and a few of their rich buddies can have more than everyone else.

They are like toddler siblings in the backseat of mom and dad's car fighting over nonsensical things. Difference being that little kids don't just kill each other. Mom yells at them from the front seat. Then they sort it out and find a way to coexist. Toddlers have a better understanding of using diplomacy than the leaders of the “most powerful” nations.
