you know we'll meet again some sunny day

A group of thirteen prominent physicists have petitioned the Emperor W to halt any plans to bomb Iran with nuclear weapons and to announce that the U.S. will not nuke non-nuclear powers.

In World War II, after V-E Day, Leo Szilard, a Los Alamos physicist who had called for the development of an atomic bomb to counter potential German development of such a weapon, decided that it would be immoral to use the bomb against the Japanese. He wrote a petition to support that view and collected seventy signatures.

We know how that worked out for him.

Stay tuned for World War III.
