	THE CASE FOR NUCLEAR DISARMAMENT
		Nuclear weapons are of another order of wickedness, evil and stupidity altogether, for not only do they kill, maim and torture human beings in the most terrible way, they destroy the animal kingdom and also the entire environment.
		Nuclear weapons, bringing death and destruction on such a massive and long-lasting scale, are simply more efficient at killing and maiming innocent people, but no less evil, and just as much of a war crime as the Holocaust.
		Nuclear weapons are spreading around the globe, largely because the big nuclear powers refuse to give up their own nuclear weapons for reasons of prestige and status.
