News Good
Good day this was. Pakistan and India agreed on a no-first-use nuclear
weapons policy and talked serious peace. A hopeful move for these adjacent
nuclear powers. Madeline Albright said that NATO would not bomb Kosovo
in the event that both sides didn't agree to the peace settlement (which
I guess means that if Yugoslavia and the Serbs agree to stop repressing
the independence of the province of Kosovo, but the province of Kosovo
DOES NOT agree to have their independence no longer repressed, then
we will go ahead and bomb Yugoslavia anyway. Nothing like a first strike
to end suffering in the world. Also, the army has announced that (for
300 million dollars) it is going to have 1200 tons of VX nerve gas (the
deadliest substance known to man (according to AP it is not the deadliest
substance known to women (so perhaps they are immune))) stored in Indiana
(100 miles from the headquarters of Newspoetry Intranational) converted
(by 2006) into salt and water (which are good for you). I say without
any sarcasm that, as the world's leader, it is about time that we sent
a clear message to the other countries of the world by ceasing stockpiling
of weapons of mass destruction. In an article about Iraq I read on the
ABC News site, one of the possibilities being considered was not to
launch an offensive military assault against the tiny rogue state, as
we have not done against North Korea for 45 years.
Peace is breaking out all over.
