Nuclear War cannot be won and should not be fought

In Ken Josephs letter America should use every weapon at our disposal(May 26), he never once mentioned that using nuclear weapons to solve our problems in the world today very likely would force our enemies to retaliate with their own nuclear weapons.

The civilized world has not used nuclear weapons since we bombed Japan in 1945. The world is aware that we could have no winners in a nuclear war. America continues to use conventional weapons to fight our wars because a counter-attack would kill thousands of our citizens.

Josephs also mentions the thousand of civilians we killed when we fire-bombed Germany and dropped atomic bombs on Japan at the end of World War 11.

When reading his statements concerning civilian deaths, my dearly departed mother came to mind. She was the most apolitical person I ever knew. Her main goals in life revolved around being a old-fashioned housewife. Even if she knew Adolf Hitler was hungry, she would prepare a meal for him. Her altruism was purely nonracial and nonpolitical.

I feel strongly that so many like her yet exist in today's world. The killing of "the innocents should not be in any nation's overall war plan. The politicians who cause wars were never an issue with my mother. If someone was in need, she would come to their aid. I visualize a great many Muslim women, dressed in their burkas, as reincarnations of my mother.

Hello Friends!

First of all I would like to explain what is nuclear war? It is a war with nuclear power. When a nuclear bomb is deployed at some place it creates nuclear devastation through series of chain reaction that happens in nucleus of an atom.

Now as our topic is "Nuclear War cannot be won and should not be fought". So let us discuss about it.

If we will see today's world almost every country have nuclear power. And the reason for this the countries give is that it is for security of the nation. If the war is fought in future it will surely be Nuclear one because war is the game of destroy and conquer policy. During war nations forget the harm that is going to cause the human as well as animals life in future.

If take the example of Hiroshima and Nagasaki cities of Japan. There still after the almost 60 years from atom bomb deployed by America, its effect can be seen. The children take births with degenerated qualities and genetics.

Nuclear war may win the war or country but it leaves a country and place not to be used again for living and also at the cost of billions of lives. This is not the win, this is the loss of humanity.

In my concern Nuclear war should not fought. In spite of using the nuclear power for destruction it must be used for growth of country because nuclear energy gives huge amount of electricity.

Nuclear power is very strong and destructive for the wellfare and destruction of society. The science has invented many things, now it depends upon us how we use it. If science has invented a knife for cutting apple, but you are cutting someone neck. So the usage of nuclear power depends on the attitude of society.

In my concern, nuclear power should be only used for the wellfare of the society. Through using nuclear, we may able to generate huge energy that we would be able to fulfill the need of society population of around 8 billion. The nuclear energy may be alternative sources of natural resources like Petrol, disel and gas. India has signed many nuclear agreement with other countries like the US, EU and china. Today one country is not believing to other easily. That's why every country is busy in making nuclear boms and dangerous instruments. I don't think this is good anyway.

I am completely against the having nuclear weapons. There is no surity that when Pakistan might attack in India or when America would attack on Iran etc. The effect of nuclear bom is very disastrous. For instance, Hirosima and Nagasaki. There should be never especially nuclear war. It can destroy the nature as well as the existance of humanity.

Nuclear energy uses to be derived nucleus of an atom.It generates an chain reation which throws out gamma rays which is harmful for the human and other living species.Take the example of japanese cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki.The event occured during the 2nd world war when americans dropped the nuclear bombs on the cities.Even today also,mentally or physically degenrated children are taking birth over their. UNO has strictly instructed every nation not to use any nuclear in a bad way.Still today also nations have nuclear bombs and the explaination given by each nation is for the security purpose.

If 3rd world war happens it is surely going to be a nuclear war as nations will not think about each other's welfare.They are just gonna think about each other's destruction to win the war and to be world's gretest power.It will destroy the mankind, environment and other species.Earth will not be a place to live.

Quoting Albert Einestien's world:"I dont know with which weapon will the 3rd world war happen but I can surely say that 4th world war will be fought with sticks and stones." I think the statement itself can suggest the situation after 3rd world war.

I am Ambica from Hyderabad. I believe that God has created and gifted so many beautiful things in this Universe specially in the earth. Every human nature has to understand this. For the survival of every human nature God has provided all the eminities. Among all the living nature only man is gifted with sharp brain, beautiful heart.

Due to fear fact we are taking hard decisions. To protect ourselves we are harming the other one. We are using our power in a wrong way. Now a days every country is trying to get equipped with nuclear power and weapons. But we are forgetting the fact that with the use of this power we may destroy the human kind. Years after also the generations suffer with this power. God has gifted us all the resources and comforts to make our lives happy. But we are using them for the purpose of destruction.

I think no war can be won with bloodshed and destruction of human kind. Hence I would suggest that all the critical matters or issues has to be sorted out with peaceful discussion. I also recommend that nuclear energy must become the source of income and helpful to the mankind.

I don't think that a 3rd world war in the truest sense of the term will ever take place. As with the rise of terrorism and growing discontent among religious and ethnic groups wars have assumed a more "local" character. Large-scale wars have increased post Second World war but the risk of a nuclear stand-off is highly unlikely given the overwhelmingly destructive power of the nuclear tool, attracting widespread international repercussion that would obviously not go well with the image of the country using it. Which means that victory can be ensured in tangible terms but that would be eventually overshadowed and subdued by the human rights crises in the international scenario. So the best possible way of mending relations seem to be "dialogue" in the present globally economically interdependent world.

So even if nations are inclined to build up their nuclear capabilities I would say that just let them build their nukes because the more the countries go nuclear the lesser are the chances of having a nuclear warfare in the near future.

From the beginning of the world, people always adopted only one policy i.e. "Power and Control". Today after thousand years we are still stick to this policy. War is one of example of this policy. War can never be the solution of problems whether it fought with traditional weapons or with nuclear weapons.

Am totally agree with the statement that nuclear war cannot be won and should not be fought. Because nuclear weapons can influence the every sphere of mankind more badly than any other thing. Nuclear weapons were once used in Nagasaki and Hiroshima in Japan. Worse effect of this attack is still recognize in people there. The genetics, ecological, economical, political and social effects of nuclear weapons can influences the world for long time.

At present, almost every big nation have nuclear weapons. And if war will fought between nations with nuclear weapons then it will surely prove the Gandhiji quote true i.e. "An eye for an eye makes world blind".

Good evening gentleman,

The opinion some of my friends saying that war has newer inevitable, but I am not completely agree with them. Because war is not small thing like a purchases vegetables from market, and specially nuclear war in which no one country can be won fully with profit. For example maximum nation exceptionally by some countries having nuclear power but no one want to take initiative to use the power, because they are very well known with nuton's theory that"Every action has equal and opposite reaction. "Every nation knows if any of there city went under the suffering of nuclear disaster they know the price what they have to pay.

So gentleman we the youth of nation has to come forward to take initiative to make awareness about the nuclear power, that use this power as boon not as ban. To make light in the house of one not spread darkness in the world.

Thank you Gentleman to giving me your valuable time.

Hi friends,

Nuclear war as the name suggest itself is a war that is fought with nuclear weapons.

And we all know how much drastic effect will be there if it is fought. As we all know the condition of hiroshima and nagasaki. The effects are still visible there till now.

As it is a chain of reactions which can never end. And will destroy the life and property forever.

So why doing such kind of activities which will harm the humanity, by being humans how can even we imagine of harming our creation of god.

And finally the question is what we will we get?

And the answer is nothing except the feeling of guilt. By doing such war we are not winning any one's heart. Nor do we have our loved ones to celebrate, so for whom we should even think of any kind of war.

Finally I would end up by concluding that nuclear science is good technology but if it would be used to benefit the society as well as nation.

Now days life of every person is a struggle. We all facing many other problem like as increase of population, corruption, black marketing and question is rising that how to growth? war is not solution because if today we are in power, it is not possible that we will remain powerful always. Science and technology was made for human help but machine and technology overcome on human. We all know that nuclear war create a great disaster in the whole word. Nobody win in the war everybody loose, less or more. This statement is true that never serve sweet in the quarrel. So, why we use nuclear power in war. It is the boon of science and technology for human growth and nations development. So, there is no solution in nuclear war. I think we should be should use nuclear power for electricity power generation that's make our future life safe and easy. That will create growth in human life.
