Re: [mukto-mona] Nuclear Weapons Are Sinful: Ayatollah Ali Khameini



Read my e-mail again. You have obsession with India and Israel. Try to think with reasons. Get rid of Pakistani mentality.

Mr. Subimol,
You didn't mention  those countries by name(Indai and Israel). You mentioned Saudi Arabia, Iran and Pakistan all three Islamic Republics by name.
 Why you hesitate to mention those two nations name ?

In my earlier e-mail in this connection, I have categorically said that no country should have nuclear arsenal. It includes Israel and India too. Read it again.

Mr. Subimol,
 
You didn't answer my questiin about Israeli Nukes. Why the State of Israel was allowed to keep its Nukes. May be you like Israel to keep its nukes to threatren her neighbour. You mentioned Pakistani Nukes but didn't mention Indian Nukes. You  avoiding  comment on Israeli and Indian nuclear capability instead attacking Saudi or Iranian nuclear ambition. This is a clear discrimination. Even you will criticise Bangladeshi nuclear ambition I believe , if Bangladesh want to protect its territorial integrity from three of its nuclear neighbour Pakista, India and China.
Why such discrimination. My clear point was a Nuclear Free Middle East. What's yoiur opinion about nuclear freee M.E. Do you support it or oppoose it ?---------- Original Message ----------From: subimal chakrabarty <subimal@yahoo.com>To: Mohiuddin Anwar <mohiuddin@netzero.net>,  "mukto-mona@yahoogroups.com" <mukto-mona@yahoogroups.com>,  "dahuk@yahoogroups.com" <dahuk@yahoogroups.com>,  "ovimot@yahoogroups.com" <ovimot@yahoogroups.com>,  "jnrsr53@yahoo.com" <jnrsr53@yahoo.com>,  "chottala@yahoogroups.com" <chottala@yahoogroups.com>Cc: "odhora@yahoogroups.com" <odhora@yahoogroups.com>,  "nazrulic@gmail.com" <nazrulic@gmail.com>,  "syed.aslam3@gmail.com" <syed.aslam3@gmail.com>,  "akhtergolam@gmail.com" <akhtergolam@gmail.com>,  "liaquat707@gmail.com" <liaquat707@gmail.com>Subject: Re: [mukto-mona] Nuclear Weapons Are Sinful: Ayatollah Ali KhameiniDate: Sat, 3 Mar 2012 09:31:58 -0800 (PST)
Not only America, many muslim countries will also not like Iranian nuclear bomb. To Saudi Arabia, Iran is a ferocious poisonous snake ready to strike any moment and hence it's throat needs to be cut (please remember a news item several months old). If Mr. Anwar is advocationg for Iran to be allowed to make nuclear bombs, he is doing it to be politically correct. Being a fan of Saudi rule and policies, he will definitely not want a Shiite country to possess nuclear bombs. American foreign ploicy has proved many a time to be a myopic one. One example is letting Pakistan (to be more specific---acceptance of nuclear weapon in Pakistan) to possess nuclear capability.

Why nobody is talking about Israeli nukes?
Most critics believe Israel posses huge nuclear arsenal with the help from her western  backers.
Why state of Israel has immunity to keep its nukes ?
Why civilized western world never talk about vast arsenal of Israeli nukes?
If  poor nations like India, Pakistan can obtain nukes,  why it's wrong for other rich nations  in Middle East  to have it, even they can't even think about this nukes?
Is nuclear  the monopoly of selected nations ?
Why nuclear discrimination continuing in modern World?
My understanding is that not only nukes, all  unconventional deadly weapons should be eliminated for a peaceful World.
We heard about Nuclear Chapabazi(Lie) by western powers about so called Iraqi Nukes before attacking Iraq to destroy its nukes, but
unfortunately, nothing found but million human lives were lost for this Chapabazi(Lie). Why such devastation ? To protect whom?
Nobody paid price or questioned for this Chapabazi(Lie)
My understanding is that, If Israel can posses Nukes, than why my motherland Bangladesh can't  also get nukes to protect its  territorial integrity from foreign aggression?
Finally to protect  the volatile Middle East , Middle East should be declared 'Nuclear Free Zone' by the United Nations and enforced by all Big Powers

The Ayatollah Is Right About One Thing: Nuclear Weapons Are Sinful

Posted on Feb 29, 2012
AP / Vahid Salemi
A pro-government Iranian demonstrator holds a poster with photos of the late revolutionary founder Ayatollah Khomeini, right, and supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, at an annual demonstration in front of the former U.S. Embassy in Tehran.
 
Given my own deep prejudice toward religious zealotry, it has not been difficult for me to accept the conventional American view that Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the supreme theocratic ruler of Iran, is a dangerous madman never to be trusted with a nuclear weapon. How then to explain his recent seemingly logical and humane religious proclamations on the immorality of nuclear weapons? His statement challenges the acceptance of nuclear war-fighting as an option by every U.S. president since Harry Truman, who, in 1945, ordered the deaths of 185,000 mostly innocent civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
 
�We do not see any glory, pride or power in the nuclear weapons�quite the opposite,� Iran�s Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said Tuesday in summarizing the ayatollah�s views. Salehi added, �The production, possession, use or threat of use of nuclear weapons are illegitimate, futile, harmful, dangerous and prohibited as a great sin.�
 
Of course, the ayatollah�s position will be largely interpreted by the media and politicians in the United States as a devious trick to lull critics, but words of such clarity will not be so easily dismissed by his devout followers. They are words that one wishes our own government would embrace to add moral consistency to our condemnation of other countries we claim might be joining us in holding nuclear arms.
 
As awkward as it may be to recall, it was the United States that gifted the world with these sinful weapons. And even more to the point of assessing sin, ours is the only nation that has ever used such weapons toward their intended purpose of killing large numbers of the innocent. That fact alone should provoke some measure of humility in responding to Salehi�s offer this week at the Conference on Disarmament in Geneva to negotiate a treaty banning nuclear weapons.
 
Unfortunately, his remarks were all too predictably met with swift condemnation by the United States. Laura E. Kennedy, the American ambassador to the conference, said that Iran�s claim to be opposed to such weapons �stands in sharp contrast� to that nation�s failure to comply with international obligations. But the fact is that the administration she represents has stated that there is as yet no evidence that Iran is committed to building a nuclear bomb.
 
 
She is right that Iran�s resistance to inspection �is hardly illustrative of a commitment to nuclear disarmament,� but such a remark is grotesquely hypocritical coming from the representative of a nation that has produced more than half of the world�s nuclear arsenal under the most severe conditions of secrecy. It is also true that U.S. acceptance of nuclear weapons in Israel and Pakistan, both of which have been recipients of American military aid despite breaking international nonproliferation codes to which U.S. presidents have long subscribed, is hardly a sign of consistency on this issue.
 
 
It is obvious, in a week when the U.S. welcomed North Korea�s renewed commitment to inspections, that even the most recalcitrant of nations can be induced to reason. The treatment of Iran is complicated by this being a U.S. election season, during which the Republican candidates, with the exception of Ron Paul, have been beating the war drums over what they claim is Iran�s nuclear threat. In no way has the GOP�s zeal for military confrontation been chastened by the fact that a similar crusade in 2003 by Republican hawks led to the invasion of Iraq over patently false claims that it was developing a nuclear arsenal. The result was a pro-Iranian government in Baghdad.
 
Neither Iraq nor Iran had anything to do with the 9/11 attacks that launched our nation on a never-ending and essentially irrational �war on terror.� Irrational, because the terrorist enemy has come to be defined through political convenience rather than through an objective threat assessment. Iran�s Shiite leaders were sworn enemies of Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaida, which was inspired and financed by the Wahhabi Sunnis of Saudi Arabia. Yet when the Obama administration recently concluded a huge, 10-year arms deal with the Saudi kingdom, the top Republican candidates were in full approval.
 
Of course the world�s people should be alarmed by the prospect of Iran, or any other nation, joining the nuclear weapons club. But demonizing Iran and attempting to further isolate that nation�s leadership hardly advances the cause of nonproliferation. If Washington can find a basis of reasonable accommodation with a bizarrely erratic and paranoid North Korea, serious negotiations with Iran should be eminently possible. A place to begin would be with the acceptance that the justifiably reviled ayatollah might for once be demonstrating moral leadership when he denounces all nuclear weapons, including those in our own massive arsenal, as sinful.
