Ward Wilson, founder and executive director of RealistRevolt, is widely acknowledged as one of the leading sources of innovative pragmatic arguments against nuclear weapons. The title of his recent book is “It Is Possible: A Future Without Nuclear Weapons.” Nuclear weapons, of which there are about 13,000, are some of the most devastating threats on Earth. The nine nuclear countries are: the USA, Russia, China, UK, France, North Korea, Israel, India and Pakistan. The main thrust of his book is that while damage and destruction of nukes is real, their utility and importance have been exaggerated. The United Nations has been in the forefront in promoting treaties, such as the Non-Proliferation Treaty, to limit or eliminate nuclear weapons. Izumi Nakamitsu, Under-Secretary General of UN Disarmament Affairs, leads the effort to forestall a new nuclear arms race. In 2017, the UN began a process on a treaty for the prohibition of nukes.

Ward Wilson, Nuclear Weapons Policy Analyst, and author of “Five Myths About Nuclear Weapons”. Ward is widely acknowledged as the leading source of innovative pragmatic arguments against nuclear weapons in the world today. Most of us think of the proliferation of nuclear weapons as a “done deal”. Ward makes a case not only for the need of shifting that thinking but also what we can do to make that happen.
Jonathan Granoff and Ward Wilson are experts on nuclear weapons; Joan Kerr specializes in community gardening and IEEE, but they all discuss nukes during this schmooze session. Jonathan and Ward assert that they are the realists, whereas the hard-nosed nuclear weapons strategists are living according to several myths that are manifestly untrue. Ward shows that the Japanese did not surrender because of the bombing of Hiroshima but because the Japanese entered the war and were advancing rapidly at the same time as the atomic bombings began.

El uso de armas nucleares por parte de Estados Unidos contra Japón durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la rendición nipona como consecuencia, ha sido durante mucho tiempo un tema de emotivo debate. Varios análisis confirman que, aunque las bombas forzaron el fin inmediato de la guerra, los líderes de Japón habían querido rendirse de todos modos y probablemente lo hubieran hecho antes de la invasión estadounidense planeada para el 1 de noviembre. Ward Wilson, un investigador principal del Consejo de Información de Seguridad Británico-Estadounidense, propone que no fueron las bombas atómicas las que obligaron a Japón a rendirse. ¿Entonces qué hizo que Japón se rindiera? Aquí lo analizamos, en este episodio especial de Crónicas de Ares.Leer máshttps://culturizando.com/emil-hacha-el-hombre-que-entrego-checoslovaquia-a-hitler/• CULTURIZANDO.COM/PODCAST • Podcast de Historia Bélica • Podcast en Español •Conéctate con Culturizando:Visita: https://culturizando.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/CulturizandoInstagram: https://instagram.com/CulturizandoFacebook: https://facebook.com/CulturizandoYoutube: https://youtube.com/CulturizandoTrivia Culturizando:Aprende con nuestras trivias de cultura generalhttps://triviaculturizando.com/

A classically trained drummer for many years and well versed in guitar, bass, piano, trumpet, he has many skill sets that he brings to his genre blending styles of electronic bass music. Drawing from influences such as Flume, Mr. Carmack, Sango, Tupac, Slipknot, System Of A Down, and Nirvana; the list goes on and the musical taste goes deeper and deeper. He channels his appreciation for music into floor stomping, uplifting and grimy dance beats while taking the audience on a sonic auditory experience.

A Few Words From The Man Himself I am inspired by many things. I love the outdoors, the mountains, the ocean. I get inspired a lot by talking to other people and observing the natural world. Sailing is also a big inspiration for me. This is the first mix that I have made since the pandemic started. I wanted to take the listener on a sonic journey with emotion, tension and release. I have a couple unreleased ID's in this mix that I am bringing to light after making a lot of music during the pandemic. I hope that you all enjoy this mix and I am glad to be back! -WARDO- To hear more of his amazing sound check out https://linktr.ee/wardomusic
Ward Wilson is a nuclear weapons abolitionist, as are Richard Denton and Metta Spencer. Nowadays, his talks to the public focus on “realistic” (as opposed to ethical, humanitarian) concerns about the practical utility of nukes. He believes that this approach will be more convincing, and will give people a new sense that abolition is possible. Richard sees value in a variety to approaches.

Ward Wilson, Martha Goodings, and Metta discuss whether it is true that the bombing of Hiroshima was the reason why Japan surrendered. They agree that the more important factor was that the Soviet Union entered the war just before Nagasaki was bombed.
Did the United States end World War II in Japan by dropping two atomic weapons? That has long been the contention, but beginning in 1969, scholars have challenged that position. A fairly recent book by Ward Wilson suggests the bomb had nothing to do with ending the War and was unnecessary. I discuss this position in a COVID-19 free episode. We need more normal. https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/brion-mcclanahan/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brion-mcclanahan/support

What if dropping bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki isn’t what corked off World War II? How tactically useful are nukes, and how many times have we almost accidentally obliterated ourselves with them? Ward Wilson is the author of “Five Myths About Nuclear Weapons,” and joins Heaton to discuss the stuff about atomic warfare you’ve never considered.
Ward Wilson tells us his "Five Myths About Nuclear Weapons." Also, terrorism in France and the 1937 bombing of Guernica, Spain, that shocked the world.
Interview with Ward Wilson by Utah Public Radio on October 17 2013. Ward discusses five myths of nuclear weapons: that nuclear weapons shock and awe opponents; that nuclear deterrence is effective in a crisis; that killing civilians causes leaders to back down; that the bomb has kept the peace for sixty-five years; and that we can’t put the nuclear genie back in the bottle. His conclusion? Nuclear weapons are enormously dangerous, but don’t appear to be terribly useful. This excerpt and interview can be originally found here on the Utah Public Radio website. BASIC would also like to thank Utah Public Radio for allowing us to redistribute this interview.
Most of us think there's nothing new to say about nuclear weapons. Yes, they're horrible, possibly immoral, and definitely dangerous, but they feel necessary. If force is the final arbiter between nations, and nuclear bombs are the most powerful weapons, then we're basically stuck with them. In his new book, “Five Myths About Nuclear Weapons.,” Ward Wilson says that much of what we believe about nuclear weapons is based on emotion and exaggeration.

As Throckmorton P. Gildersleeves and Judge Hooker complete a game of checkers, LeRoy has a question. He wants to take the day off of school so he can go to the circus. Fortunately for him, he has two fine examples in these two pillars of the community. A kid listens to the advice from such outstanding citezens. Too bad, they get on a tangent, talking about their old schoolboy days, and all the crazy pranks they played at school. Suddenly fearing what kind of impression their loose tongues might make, they try to downplay their past misdeeds and want to set Leroy down the right path. Suddenly, reports of school pranks come to light. Gildersleeves thinks he is at the root of it. Leroy has been acting evasive when questioned about the pranks. Circumstantial evidence points to him, and Gildersleeves grows even more concerned. Would Leroy really stoop to such disruptive pranks? Feeling responsible, Gilersleeves tries to set things right, but you have to know that it somehow won't quite work out right. A lesson in responsibility, consequences, and taking responsibility for your actions is delivered in a light hearted way. Bonus Tracks: Graham McNamee. 1940. Talks to Ward Wilson about, Mike Checks.

Ward Wilson, grand prize winner of the 2008 Doreen and Jim McElvany Nonproliferation Challenge Essay Contest talks about a new security paradigm at a luncheon seminar at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies. He argues that the Japanese did not surrender because of the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Since nuclear deterrence relies on the threat of city destruction and city destruction is an ineffective way to wage war, he calls the efficacy of nuclear deterrence into question.
