Zero nuclear weapons by 2020, good fine vison.

Whose going to do the big amount of work to talk to US,Russia,China,North korea,India,Pakistan and Israel to eliminate nuclear weapons .

This will involve becoming one world via one united UN government formation and we will all be called UN citizens of countries.

The divisions between marxism,capitalism,nationalism,rich nation,poor nation,faiths and other things will have to set aside to adopt UN citizenship nationalism.

All armies and police have to work together as one UN army or UN police.

Who are going do the enormous work,that may take decades and enormous sum of money to start .

Once started,there is no guarantee of divisions ending and unity among all 200 nations achieved.

We have a UN today but many say it is very inefficient and have not enough funds and is only working at solving poverty and war woes.

President Obama has called for begining of fine vision of zero nuclear weapons and also the age internet IT global link is moving up.

The persons or leaders involved, need to know many languages fluently or have many interpretors to start it. They also need to be very gifted in all fields of knowledge.

The globalisation of global nations interlinked economies, also has started a big global unity process.

Nuclear weapons elimination process should move via people of all nationalities, no matter the big challenges facing it.

There is need for more people to people contact between all nationalities in many seminars for decades, to achieve zero nuclear arms global vision.

Obviously any sort of nuclear device is terrible but Japan attempted to develop nuclear weapons in WW2, they would have dropped them on other countries if they hadn't lost the war, I wish Japan would stop playing the victim card...

Progress has been achieved in achieving nuclear weapons free zones in South east asia,Africa,Carribean,South pacific, Central asia and Latin america.

These zones have reduced worries of regional nuclear arms race.

It can be done for for more zones not covered by nuclear weapons free treaties.

The world free of nuclear weapons is a better world, eliminates worries in nuclear arms race globally and makes world very much safer.

World needs to make a nuclear free Koreas zone next and also a nuclear free Middle east zone,which will reduce much worries for citizens in these zones.

All nations need to strengthen international law in regards to nuclear weapons and move forward on more nuclear weapons free zones.

People are not addressing these problems in a meaningful way.

All of us have to get involved in solutions to these problems. We need to know what are the problems to moving forward in these goals, and to do away of with these nuclear weapons.

President Obama has already started a policy to move towards these issues.

Climate change woes is not so urgent to solve ,as these problems in regards to nuclear arms race.

More people/more media need to be empowered to see these issues and they need to work in an empowered way ,in working for a nuclear weapons free world.

In WW 2 ,73 million people were casuaties.

We need to aware of dangers of nuclear weapons because of WW2.

correction- We need to be aware of dangers of nuclear weapons because of WW 2.

rajakumar: Please get your facts correct, an estimated 73 million died in WW2 in total, not because of the nuclear effect of it... in fact some 500,00+ people died in Japanese POW captivity alone. Axp 2.2 million died from nuclear actions in Japan.

I'm not downplaying anything here, none of this is cool, it is important to get facts correct.
