Subject: (abolition-usa) [abolition-caucus] Clinton's National Emergency Order regarding weapons of mass destruction
Thus begins the sixth year of an official Presidentially declared national
emergency regarding nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction. Can't
this be an additional good angle for Abolition2000 to address this official
national emergency with references to this order in all press releases,
etc., and offer as how Abolition2000 campaign is trying to help the
President to alleviate this specific national emergency? Wouldn't this seem
to be a logical reason to motivate the citizens and all national legislators
to support HR 2545 http://www.prop1.org to remediate this national emergency
officially declared as such just since Nov'94? This certainly seems to
negate the popular impression that its all ok now that the Soviet Union
broke up and the "cold war ended".
Am I missing something here or is this a real lever with which to lift
public awareness and opinion about the need for abolition 2000?
This seems like an important email list to be on from the White House. I
wonder how one subscribes?

From: FoE Sydney - Nuclear Campaign <nonukes@foesyd.org.au>
Subject: (abolition-usa) [abolition-caucus] GLOBAL NUKE-WEAPONS APPEAL HANDED TO BUSH, GORBACHEV, FISCHER, IN BERLIN
The Following Press release was faxed out today from Friends of the Earth
Sydney.
GLOBAL NUKE-WEAPONS APPEAL HANDED TO BUSH, GORBACHEV, FISCHER, IN BERLIN
A global appeal signed by over 460 organisations to take nuclear weapons
off hairtrigger alert for the Y2K 'rollover' was handed to ex-presidents
Bush and Gorbachev in Berlin on 9/11/1999, by Women for Peace Activist and
ex-member of the European Parliament Eva Quistorp, via the President of
the Bundestag. Similar letters have been handed to German Foreign Minister
Joschka Fischer, and environment minister Jurgen Trittin, asking Germany to
appeal to the US and Russia to de-alert their nuclear weapons.
The appeal to Yeltsin and Clinton to take nuclear forces off hairtrigger
alert over the Y2K rollover so that Y2K induced computer errors do not
induce an accidental nuclear war has so far been signed by over 460
organizations worldwide including 22 Australian parliamentarians, 9NZ
parliamentarians, 4 Canadian parliamentarians, 10 members of the European
Parliament, 2 US congresspeople, and one MP from Moldova. It has been
signed by the largest International environment groups in the world,
Friends of the Earth International and Greenpeace International, by the
British-American Security Information Council, the Centre for Defence
Information in Washington, by the International Peace Bureau, by various
national branches of IPPNW, Womens International League for Peace and
Freedom, (WILPF) and a vast number of national and local groups.
The possibility of accidental nuclear war as a result of Y2K induced
computer error has been the subject of serious concern by strategic
analysts, in view of the possibility of false information leading to
'unintended deadly consequences'. Official spokespeople have dismissed
these claims, and US systems are claimed to be fully fixed, but the very
nature of the Y2K problem is such that it is not possible to be sure that
everything is 100% fixed. Y2K-related problems have been discovered in the
US/Russsian 'hotlines'. The joint US/Russian Y2K strategic Stability Centre
is not scedu;led to operate until 27 Dec, and depends on those hotlines.
There is a small but real chance therefore of global catastrophe, which
will be vastly reduced by taking nuclear weapons systems off current
hairtrigger alert status.
The Australian Senate has already passed two motions expressing concern
over the possibility of accidental nuclear war over the Y2K rollover. A
motion is now gathering support in the US Congress, and another is
gathering support in the European Parliament. The United Nations General
Assembly in its First Committee, approved a motion put by India, asking for
nuclear weapons to be taken off alert.
Bush and Gorbachev in 1991, took nuclear bomber forces off alert.
All Nuclear Forces should be taken off alert now.
Contact: Eva Quistorp, 49-30-323-9543.

Subject: (abolition-usa) PD58.& Clinton's National Emergency Order regarding weapons of ma ss destruction
Let us not forget Presidential Directive Number 58, signed into law by that
great liberal President Jimmy Carter, and probably still on the books.
Basically, President Directive Number 58 (signed in conjunction with the
infamous President Directive 59 on waging a limited nuclear war--see my
World Politics and International Law (Duke:1985),) provides that in the
event of a "nuclear emergency" that is not defined, the President asserts
the authority to place the country under martial law. I grew up during the
Cuban Missile Crisis, when at school the principal came on the PA system and
told us all to say a prayer because the Soviet ships were now moving towards
the US naval blockade of Cuba. So let us suppose there is a repeat of this
scenario. Only this time, hundreds of thousands of American citizens take to
the streets and demand that we not be blown up. Presumably, under
Presidential Directive 58 and its ilk, the President could shut down citizen
protests designed to save our lives and the life of the world.This National
Emergency Order by Clinton simply provides the legal predicate for the
invocation of Presidential Directive 58 and its successors.

Let us not forget Presidential Directive Number 58, signed into law by that
great liberal President Jimmy Carter, and probably still on the books.
Basically, President Directive Number 58 (signed in conjunction with the
infamous President Directive 59 on waging a limited nuclear war--see my
World Politics and International Law (Duke:1985),) provides that in the
event of a "nuclear emergency" that is not defined, the President asserts
the authority to place the country under martial law. I grew up during the
Cuban Missile Crisis, when at school the principal came on the PA system and
told us all to say a prayer because the Soviet ships were now moving towards
the US naval blockade of Cuba. So let us suppose there is a repeat of this
scenario. Only this time, hundreds of thousands of American citizens take to
the streets and demand that we not be blown up. Presumably, under
Presidential Directive 58 and its ilk, the President could shut down citizen
protests designed to save our lives and the life of the world.This National
Emergency Order by Clinton simply provides the legal predicate for the
invocation of Presidential Directive 58 and its successors.

Subject: (abolition-usa) Clinton's National Emergency Order regarding
weapons of mass destruction
Thus begins the sixth year of an official Presidentially declared national
emergency regarding nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction. Can't
this be an additional good angle for Abolition2000 to address this official
national emergency with references to this order in all press releases,
etc., and offer as how Abolition2000 campaign is trying to help the
President to alleviate this specific national emergency? Wouldn't this seem
to be a logical reason to motivate the citizens and all national legislators
to support HR 2545 http://www.prop1.org to remediate this national emergency
officially declared as such just since Nov'94? This certainly seems to
negate the popular impression that its all ok now that the Soviet Union
broke up and the "cold war ended".
Am I missing something here or is this a real lever with which to lift
public awareness and opinion about the need for abolition 2000?
This seems like an important email list to be on from the White House. I
wonder how one subscribes?
