The hypocritical irrational nuclear position.

By Pat Hackett 

*In the middle east there is one country alone that has nuclear weapons but hasn't signed up to either the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA, safety inspections or to the nuclear non  proliferation treaty:-

That country is Israel .

• There is one country in the world that the West has allowed to have a deliberate policy of ambiguity, meaning they can have as many nuclear weapons as they want without any other country having any right to the knowledge of the quantity or whereabouts.(Although different countries will likely have some or all of that secret knowledge)

That country is Israel.

• Israel is a country that has created an Apartheid state and has been allowing Illegal Settlers, inflicting ethnic cleansing and are committing Genocide as recognised by many humanitarian and legal international organisations.

Meanwhile in Scotland the UK and the US have argued that Scotland must have nuclear weapons regardless of the will of the Scottish people because when both sides across the political divide have nuclear weapons then the world is safer. This is the M.A.D. or mutually assured destruction argument.

Back to the middle east America and Britain  say that Iran must not be allowed Nuclear weapons (as stated by Kier Starmer) and that argument has been used to help Israel bomb Iran to prevent them building nuclear weapons. This is in spite of the Israeli government's record, unexamined proliferation of nuclear weapons while being found  guilty of committing war crimes and of the previous M.A.D. argument.

Clearly our Politicians are being influenced by others who have ulterior motives as there is no rational moral explanation to these inconsistencies.

So a question for our politicians is:-

Do you believe in the MAD argument or not?

We may say "never again" so why do we still have war and genocide?

By Pat Hackett  Democracy and what is going wrong? In the UK and other countries in the West it has been stated that each of us have an equal say in the running of our countries because we can all vote and every vote is equally counted and yet we seem unable to play a meaningful path in preventing war and destruction or environmental damage across the world. An economic system where we have a mix of regulations and laissez-faire is regarded aa sensible balance however I believe that our so- called democracy is more of an Oligarchy in which the most ruthless wield the most influence. The Oligarchs corrupt our politicians and media. The media influence society and in a vicious cycle society then tends to select leaders who are the likeliest to be corrupted. This I believe results in a consumerist and celebrity led society where self interest is encouraged. How often do we see governmental economic budgets being evaluated by asking people "What's in it for you?" or "wh...

Rebuilding society.

By Pat Hackett. https://www.facebook.com/share/r/16qBc1GRwZ/ Palestine. As I write this post in June 2025 the following should be clear:-  The world needs to feed the entire population of men, women and children in Palestine now. We need to go much further and provide the urgent medical aid they need. We must help them rebuild their homes and then all the buildings and institutions needed for a successful society to flourish and then let the people have the democratic freedom to choose their own peaceful path in cooperation with the rest of the world. What about the Society in Israel? Many Jews will know that the Israeli government and actions are not representative of the core values of Judaism or humanitarianism. For the barbaric atrocities that we see inflicted on the people of Palestine then this requires many of the Israeli population to have had the willingness or capability to personally physically drop bombs, burn peoples homes, or prevent aid reaching people in need.

Stopping the cycle of war and environmental destruction.

By Pat Hackett. Home page.  If the politicians can't or won't act:- A peaceful revolution for long term peace and wellbeing:- If we are to make "never again" really never again it's imperative our political and economic systems do not make this cycle and destruction inevitable. If there is a vicious circle of inequality leading to those with extreme wealth disproportionately influencing the politics and media to further their wealth and influence then this cycle and destruction becomes inevitable. The vicious circle leads to the most ruthless oligarchs having the most influence and they use that influence today to encourage the politics of consumption based on infinite growth, self interest and division. What has happened to society? First we must stop the genocide and wars happening now in all the ways we can as discussed to some extent in the previous post.   Why we need a grassroot revolution. As I write this Western politicians and the media are conceding tha...
