"Why we can not eliminate War?"
Conversely saying, especially in our current Nuclear age, "How can we eliminate Nuclear Weapon and create Peace?"
I realized again today that my wife is great after all, women is great after all....
She has the books to answer my questions already!
According to her, she strongly recommended me to read this book looooong time ago, but my reaction was not so positive enough to read at that time......
Although that is somewhere at my mind, ....... the past is the past..... anyway, I had a passion to read this book today! :-)
This is the Dialogue between Mr.David Krieger and Mr.Daisaku Ikeda.
Mr.Krieger is a founder of the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation,
and, Mr.Ikeda is a president of the SGI (Soka Gakkai International).
Their Dialogue is started like this..........................
+++IKEDA+++
Today, we confront the need to turn human history away from its customary course of war and violence and toward peace and harmonious coexistence. One of the most important aspects of the task is the abolition of nuclear weapons.
The nuclear arsenals in the world today are many thousands of times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Nonetheless, political and military interests avert our eyes from this tremendous danger.
Author Jonathan Schell sounded an alarm some time ago in his now-classic bestseller The Fate of the Earth, in which he spoke of the "death of death." After a nuclear war, death would cease to exist because life would be no more.
+++KRIEGER+++
It is difficult to imagine a world without life, but nuclear weapons make such a world possible, at least for much of life that includes humans. Without humans, there can be no history. Without humans, there is no possibility to interpret and convery the past to the future. The end of human life would mean the end of human intelligence, creativity and, ironically, the application of technologies.
If other intelligent life exists in the universe, perhaps future space archaeologists coming to earth would descern that our species reached this critical juncture and failed to muster the will to control its own species-threatening technologies. I doubt they could ascertain why we failed. But if they visit earth within the first 240,000 years after our annihilation, traces of plutonium 239 in the environment would alert them to how we failed.
This book will give me the answer........, and give you the answer...........
