The Nuclear Club: A Pass for India

Filed under: Critical Voices | FrontPage | Nuclear — by Bob Zuber @ 2:47 am

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette wonders how India’s nuclear program can receive preferential treatment in Washington when those of Iran and North Korea are leading us to the brink of serious confrontation: “With the Bush administration’s strong positions against the nuclear programs of North Korea and Iran, giving India a bye on long-range missile testing, even while the administration is trying to pass legislation favorable to its nuclear activities, is an astonishing, if not shocking, tribute to the power of the campaign dollar.”

In Dante’s Hell those guilty of the sin of cupidity are in the ninth circle, frozen in the Lake of Ice. Having cared for nothing but self in life, they are encased in icy Self for eternity. By making people focus only on oneself in this way, Satan and his followers turn their eyes away from the harmony of love that unites all creatures.
