New USA defence secretary Hagel supports reduction in nuclear arms

Hagel supports nuclear weapons reduction , Ahramonline,  Chuck Hagel,
nominated to be President Obama’s next defence secretary, supports
‘Global Zero’ movement on nuclear disarmament Bassem Aly , 6 Feb 2013
Former Republican senator Chuck Hagel will likely be the first
American defence secretary, if approved, to back the so-called “Global
Zero” movement that supports reducing the number of US nuclear
weapons.

Global Zero members believe that stopping the spread of nuclear
weapons, securing all nuclear materials and eliminating all nuclear
weapons is the only way to end the nuclear threat, including
proliferation and nuclear “terrorism.”

The movement, joined by almost 300 world leaders and more than 400,000
citizens worldwide, was launched in Paris in December 2008.

Hagel had previously co-authored with other public figures the 2012
Global Zero U.S. Nuclear Policy Commission Report  that outlined a
step-by-step plan to eliminate nuclear weapons, involving bilateral
negotiations with Russia to be followed by other key countries…..

  1. I thought Hagel was out but he was down but not out. While Obama is definitely a psychopathic mass murderer, whose weapon of choice is the Drone, killing thousands of innocent people and even giving himself the right to put American citizens on his Kill List (without any form of habeas corpus); his choice for Hagel is a breath of fresh air. Hagel was accosted by all of the Jewish Lobby lackeys in the confirmation hearings which showed how desperate the JL is. I think Hagel would indeed slow down the possibility of a war with Iran, which would be a most horrifying outcome for the entire world were it to happen.

    And before you start saying I am an antiSemite for using the phrase “Jewish Lobby”, read this article by a Jewish author. He is allowed to say it but no one else is?

    Yes, there is a Jewish lobby
