Hair-trigger alert
Christian Century, May 3, 2005
HAIR-TRIGGER ALERT: Thirty-two Nobel Prize winners have issued a statement urging nations with nuclear weapons to take their lethal loads off hair-trigger alert. Signed by former South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu and the Dalai Lama, among others, the statement notes that "thousands of nuclear weapons in the U.S.
and Russia are on launch-on-warning status, and the megatonnage involved remains more than enough to destroy civilization and perhaps the human race." They urge all nuclear powers, including Israel and North Korea, to move toward nuclear disarmament (Progressive Web site, April 8).
