Eliiminating Nukes

TO THE PEOPLE of the People's Egalitarian Democratic Republic of North Korea, and their beloved totalitarian dictator, I, on behalf of, frankly, no one but myself, but ultimately on behalf of every living organism on earth with a discerning intellect and concern for the future, propose the following; that we, the humans of earth, all agree on some fundamental proposal to work towards in harmony and unison.. That said proposal be the elimination of all nuclear weapons from the Earth. Isn't that the most desirable ooutcome, really? No nukes on Earth, none whatever? All factors considered, it is a miracle that humanity has not destroyed itself with accidental nuclear bomb droppings. The list of verified mistakes is enormous, and terrifying. Oh, there was the worker in Arkansas who dropped a wrench which hit and penetrated a fuel tank of a missile armed with a nuclear warhead, the fuel tank exploded, and the actual warhead landed about half a mile from where it had been, atop the rocket, but did not, thank the lord, explode. then, there was the time an American B52 accidentally dropped a load of nukes in Portugal, none of which, thank heavens, exploded. then, the time that the Russian on duty colonel detected an incoming wave of American nuclear missiles, headed for Russia, chose not to inform his superiors, which would have triggered a nuclear war, and it turned out that his hunch, that the incoming missiles were a computer mistake, proved true, and his intuition saved the world. Much material is available on these, and many more incidents of near global catastrophe. If North Korea would agree to terminate its nuclear weapons program immediately, to the demonstrable satisfaction of the entire world, we, the world community, pledge to eliminate our nuclear weapons as well, eventually, as soon as we can agree upon a time frame and process. let us first agree that there is no such thing as a safe, harmless, peaceful nuclear power. Humans being, in any combination or group, with such powerful weapons, is a grave threat to all other life on the planet, and are not qualified nor competent to have possession of such weapons. North Korea is not the only nation to use nuclear weapons in a threatening or directly harmful manner. India and Pakistan have for decades been threatening each other with nuclear war, and the United States of America is the only nation on Earth so far to have used nuclear weapons in war, with horrifying consequences. Humans are inherently unqualified, by virtue of their basic nature, to possess such powerful and destructive. North Korea needs economic commerce wit the rest of the world, a thriving free market economy and direct economic assistance from the United States and other countries to facilitate the expansion of its economy and the elimination of the widespread poverty among its people. the current situation, characterized by threats and insults between petty, irrational leaders of the U.S.and North Korea is absolutely unacceptable. We need new leadership in both countries, and a world wide commitment to bringing a healthy economic system into being in a world free of nuclear weapons.
