CONFERENCE AGAINST A AND H BOMBS, HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI
3-5 August 2013, Hiroshima and Nagasaki (Japan
The Japan Council against Atomic & Hydrogen Bombs (Gensuikyo)
will soon commemorate the 68th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
For a Nuclear Weapon-free, Peaceful and Just World:
We call on your participation
in and support to the 2013 World Conference against A and H Bombs
February
14, 2013
71st
General Meeting, Organizing Committee
Dear
friends,
We
will soon commemorate the 68th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Now,
aiming to achieve a nuclear weapon-free, peaceful and just world, people are
raising their voices throughout Japan
Last
December in the U.N. General Assembly, the NAC resolution calling for the
implementation of nuclear disarmament commitments was adopted with a large
margin of 175 countries in favor versus only 6 opposing. The Malaysian
resolution calling for a start of negotiations for a nuclear weapons convention
was adopted with 135 states supporting, the largest number ever. There is
now another initiative for nuclear weapons abolition. From the viewpoint
of humanitarian consequences of the use of nuclear weapons, 35 member states,
including the Holy See and some NATO member states, issued a joint statement
calling for efforts to outlaw nuclear weapons.
It
will soon be 3 years since 189 states parties to the NPT agreed on achieving
“the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons” . The
progress towards that goal is delayed by the nuclear weapon states upholding
the “nuclear deterrence theory”, claiming that their nuclear weapons are the “guarantee
of security”, and their allies’ policy of relying on their “nuclear
umbrella”. Countering such nuclear policies, dangerous moves of
developing nuclear weapons are emerging.
However,
these moves have no future. Relying on nuclear weapons is retrogressive
to human history. Abolition of nuclear weapons is a major trend in the
world.
The
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in August 2010 called for achievement of the
abolition of nuclear weapons by 2020, describing “nuclear deterrence” as
“illusions - delusions of security”. Before that deadline, in 2015, the
next NPT Review Conference is to be held, which will verify the implementation
of the agreements on “a nuclear weapon-free world” .
Towards
the 2015 NPT Review Conference, we must create the united grass-roots movements
of the people around the world. And in Japan ,
the A-bombed country, we must defend Article 9 of the Constitution and “the
Three Non-nuclear Principles”, and raise our voices louder to make the Japanese
government meet the people’s wishes and work for a total ban on nuclear weapons
and a nuclear-free and peaceful Japan
The
2013 World Conference will provide an opportunity to rally the voices and
activities of the people of Japan
We
again call for your warm support to the 2013 World Conference. Let us
achieve a great success of the Conference, by developing the variety of
grass-roots activities and bringing together your achievements to Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Voices from the Plain

Life under an Air War (SECOND EDITION)
Edited by Fred Branfman with essays and drawings by Laotian villagers
Foreword by Alfred W. McCoy
New Perspectives in Southeast Asian Studies Alfred W. McCoy, R. Anderson Sutton, Thongchai Winichakul,
and Kenneth M. George, Series Editors
“A classic. . . . No American should be able to read [this book] without weeping at his country’s arrogance.”
—Anthony Lewis, New York Times
During the Vietnam War the United States government waged a massive, secret air war in neighboring Laos. Fred Branfman, an educational advisor living inLaos
When first published in 1972, this book was instrumental in exposing the bombing. In this expanded edition, Branfman follows the story forward in time, describing the hardships that Laotians faced after the war when they returned to find their farm fields littered with cluster munitions—explosives that continue to maim and kill today.
“Today, the significance of this book’s message has, if anything, increased. As Fred Branfman predicted with uncommon prescience, the massiveU.S. bombing of Laos
during the Vietnam War marked the advent of a new kind of warfare—automated,
aerial, and secret—that is just now emerging as the dominant means of projecting
