Youth from all over the country are sick of the effects that building nuclear weapons and uranium mining have had on the environment. That's why some of them spent last weekend building a site in Chimay where the "Disarmament Summer Encampment" will take place from July 30 to Aug. 9. Steven Stormoen is the youth empowerment coordinator for Think Outside the Bomb, the national nuclear abolition group for youth that is helping build and sponsor the encampment.
THE 18 presidential candidates eight Democrats and 10 Republicans who came to Saint Anselm College here for a pair of debates this week displayed a remarkable ability to ignore the real- world consequences of many of the policies they were advocating. Democrats brushed aside concerns over the impact of their votes to cut off funding for the troops in Iraq or the larger implications of a precipitous withdrawal from that country. Republicans were casual about contemplating the use of nuclear weapons against Iran or the effects of foreclosing a path to citizenship for millions of Hispanics living illegally in the United States.
GOFFSTOWN, N.H. -- The 18 presidential candidates -- eight Democrats and 10 Republicans -- who came to Saint Anselm College here for a pair of debates this week displayed a remarkable ability to ignore the real-world consequences of many of the policies they were advocating.

[...] in the event of a nuclear attack against China, the paper indicates that the Second Artillery Corps will launch a nuclear counterattack "either independently or together with the nuclear forces of other services." A 2008 annual Pentagon report on China's military power stated that "doctrinal materials suggest additional missions for China's nuclear forces include deterring conventional attacks against [Chinese] nuclear assets or conventional attacks with [weapons of mass destruction]-like effects.
In Sunday's edition, you published a column by Robert Housman ("Pound of cure for terror," Commentary) that discussed the effects of a possible nuclear strike on New York City. I do not know who his "experts" are, but I know his data is garbage, so far off as to be subject to ridicule. His numbers for the dead in such an attack may well be accurate (or even low). I have not personally conducted such a study, and in any event, it has been decades since I was trained in nuclear weapons effects and targeting. I do know, however, that in a nuclear strike on New York, the majority of deaths would not be from nuclear radiation; they would be from having buildings fall on people. Of course, those within the fireball would be vaporized, but the radius from ground zero within which buildings wou...
Join people of all ages and backgrounds from throughout the Southeast and beyond for the second annual Southeast Convergence action camp, August 5-11.
