This vid is the intro to: July 16 and Nuclear Everything: Oppenheimer, Clinton, Beatles, Vanunu and the Bhagvad Gita published first @ WeAreWideAwake.org




The Declaration of Independence from Nuclear Weapons ratified by people of Conscience at Y-12 National Security Complex, July 4, 2010




The Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776 indicted a government that engaged in barbaric conduct contrary to the laws of Humanity that included "works of death, destruction and tyranny unparalleled in the most barbaric ages" until the Age of Now!




Current Law requires an end to all planning, preparation, production, threat, or use of nuclear weapons and we the people have gathered here today, at Y-12 to demand this Government adhere to the fundamental rules and principles of Humanitarian Law.




These rules and principles require that civilians never be the object of attack. Consequently we must never use weapons that are incapable of distinguishing between civilians and military targets.




Whereas, all W-76 and W-76-1 thermonuclear secondaries produced at Y-12 are designed and produced to unleash 100 KT of uncontrollable and indiscriminate heat, blast and radiation, six times more than the Hiroshima Bomb,




Whereas, the International Court of Justice found that the destructive power of nuclear weapons cannot be contained in either space or time, and that the potential to destroy all civilization and the entire ecosystem of the planet,




Whereas, citizens have both rights and duties we the people of conscience must ensure future generations their right to life,




Whereas, under the principals of democracy we the people of conscience demand this government to fulfill its promise and responsibilities to pursue and achieve nuclear disarmament,




We the people of conscience therefore exercise the right of every citizen of this republic and this planet to peacefully resist the nuclear threat; attacking as it does every core concept of human rights,




Whereas it is a basic human right to be free of threat or violence, and it is our duty to protect children and future generations we call on this government to use our tax dollars that are now being used to wage permanent war unequivocally demand they be used to pursue a nuclear free world and clean up all chemical and radioactive contamination.

  • You are truely a total complete fool.You are out there now protesting Obama wars are you not? I love the fact fools like oyu got the mic, and was the mouth of the anti american Democrat party and got yer asses kicked the 2010 elections. As people like this fool on the vid keeps talking my side will keep winning. No nukes you have to be so fing stupid peacefully resist, you just get yourself KILLED by the aggressor fool.But then people like you defend Castro chavez and all communistdictatorships

  • @thekux You are deluded-democracy cannot be had via the barrel of a gun! America is THE ONLY nation to have used nuclear weapons and instead of repenting and abolishing them-they upped the ante! Live by the sword, gun, nuke and you will die by the sword, gun, nuke!

    I defend EQUAL HUMAN RIGHTS for all people! I am working for an end to the Media-Military Industrial SECURITY/Surveillance Complex-for then there will be plenty of $ to feed the hungry, shelter the homeless and PEACE will be REALITY!

  • You will want to check your mic. It is very hard to make out what your`re saying! Check your volume. Thanks Eileen.

  • @bigcree AH-i don't have a mic; i just talk into the web cam on my MAC and being techie deficient i have no clue as to how to adjust, but next time out-i will speak up!

  • Lets first have a Declaration of Independence from Israeli boot lickers ruining the US.

  • @0xTRX007 I have a DREAM: I want to serve my state as a member of The House, but with a peace and justice platform living in Zionist territory; i have no base!

  • "Whereas, citizens have both rights and duties we the people of conscience must ensure future generations their right to life"

    future generations their right to life, if we can just get this to happen it would be a quantum leap.

  • They (the so called gov.) never listened to us before what makes you think they might now? Those communitarian barstads think peace is the end to all opposition to them and there utopian dream (aka) Zion, they are not Jews but want to make them look bad, if you think otherwise you have been duped.

  • There are some tough nuts to crack, who still call Israel the apple of his eye. One sister is convinced of that. I tell her if that is true, everyone else is doomed. Abraham would not have destroyed Sodom had it been up to him. So why would his children need the BOMB. Those are the deeds of Abraham. All who do his deeds are his children.

  • Great Vlog little sister

  • great job! Subscribed! :)

  • @eileenfleming Yes, louder please!!
