Organizations that study and research nuclear proliferation are very worried. ICAN has found that countries are pouring money into their nuclear programs and not on dismantling them. The US has been the big spender and spent a whopping $51.5 billion. All of the countries with nuclear weapons are adding and increasing their funding for their nukes.
This is some of the worst news to process. This means that elected officials around the world have little hope in peace or diplomacy, but they have more faith in their weapons and their capability for death destruction. And their current actions fully support this diabolical mindset. There are no elected officials attempting to achieve peace in countries torn apart by war and genocide because they have vested interests for these genocides to not end. While some might challenge it in speech, they do nothing to achieve it, like sanction and embargo countries committing war crimes because they are focusing on the profits for their own country and not the lives of those who are suffering and dying.
What is worse is that countries with nuclear weapons are removing the access for oversight and not permitting discussions about their nuclear weapons.
There has been an overall increase in nuclear bombs, but this is based on international organizations estimates from the intelligence they have gathered. It could be significantly higher and it seems much more likely that it is higher than 60 nuclear bombs if countries are amping up funding to such a degree.
This also explains why countries are pushing for uranium mining. It would make more sense to recycle the uranium from the nuclear programs than to mine uranium, but countries like the US are pushing hard for these mines which destroy the ecosystem, wildlife, and the lives of people who live near them. Governments are trying to twist the narrative to make it appear like the need for uranium is spurred as a need for more energy, but the truth is that they need the uranium for nuclear weapons.
Governments are preparing for nuclear war.
How is this not huge news? It’s not because they are trying to downplay this story and manipulate the truth behind their uranium demands and their spending on their nuclear arsenals and programs.
We need to restructure our democracies around the world and give people the power. Elected officials under our present democratic systems cannot be trusted. Leaders are ensuring the decimation of this planet if they remain in power.
They do not want peace, but war.
May the whole world be free.
