In 2001, WHO made an action plan to ban DDT and making change strategies was one purpose of them which has many points. Change strategies consider three factors; sound criteria, cost effectiveness analysis, and a delivery system. (WHO, 2001).…
America has been through a tough and grueling war. We have lost many soldiers and need to speed it up on the Pacific front against the Japanese to change the tide and encourage surrender. America should drop the atomic bomb on Japan. Japan is in this war for the long hall and something has to change so men stop dying every day. Dropping the bomb is the best thing to do for the US and its military at this point.…
During wartime, horrible atrocities against all of humanity must be dealt with. Crimes against humanity, as never witnessed before, and hopefully to never be seen again, occurred during the course of World War II. The security of our nation and of other allied nations was severely threatened, not only by the Germans, but by the Japanese. The Japanese were a strong people willing to fight till it was no longer possible. It may even be said that they were suicidal, with their kamikaze pilots and no real hope of defeating the allied nations. America has always, and most likely will always place a high value on American lives. In order to protect these lives and to insure that the world is safe for democracy, American leaders had to make a very tough decision, whether or not to drop the atomic bomb on Japan. This act would essentially be trading Japanese lives for American lives. The Japanese, who were the aggressors, much like the Germans, were not sympathized with. They were responsible for hundreds of thousands of American casualties in the Pacific, including the unprovoked attack on Pearl Harbor. With Japanese forces showing no signs of surrender, American leaders made a decision. A decision that changed the history of warfare forever. On the week of August 6, 1945, the first and the last atomic bombs ever used during war were unleashed against Japan, vaporizing two of its largest cities.…
Bioterrorism (Biological Warfare) is defined as the usage of infectious agents in killing or causing injuries to human’s, plants, and animals. It has been used all over the world by many different countries. Along with nuclear and chemical weapons, biological weapons are classified as a Weapon of Mass Destruction (2). It’s a mass destruction weapon because of it being highly contagious and having the ability to spread, creating a “blast radius” that is virtually endless. The reason why the impact of bioterrorism is so big nowadays is because powerful nations have the technology to create and also vaccinate different diseases while their weaker counter parts cannot (4).…
The only military use of atomic weapons has been on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and almost certainly brought a prompt conclusion to WW2. However, the question of whether it was necessary is still hotly debated 70 years after the event. The answer is no it wasn’t necessary, although it is not as simple as you may think because if I had just been a soldier fighting in New Guinea or if I was a POW starving on the Thai-Burma railway [1] then answer is yes it was necessary. Necessary can have various meanings though such as indispensable or requisite, but also mean acting from need. The question becomes very problematic or ambiguous if one uses both meanings as again we get a yes and no.…
proclaims western beliefs and medicine superior to Liberian culture. This again feeds into the issue of lack of trust: and trust between those giving and receiving aid is a significantly large issues because it keeps the provision of aid and communication network efficient. Without trust humanitarian work cannot suffice.…
Our heroes are out there fighting for America. But exactly what are they fighting for, because it seems like our own government is hiding information from us. They say that it’s to protect us. Is it really? A government that we call one of our own and one that we trust has deceived us. For the families who are losing their sons, daughters, mothers, and fathers, etc.,who are in the war, are just told that they should be proud of their protector protecting the United States of America. After the soldiers die, the only remembrance of the fallen is the burial. Only families remember their deaths while the government moves on with their business and they say that they care for our people. To me the United States should have never gone to war with…
The debate on the pros and cons of the death penalty has gone on for decades. There are some people who oppose the death penalty because they fell it is a system that is so flawed that it serves no purpose. For instance, those against the death penalty believe that this sentence has the potential for an error because it is possible that the wrong person can be executed. Unfortunately, there is no way for those who decide who is guilty to always be 100 percent accurate.…
Did it occur to you once why do weapons even exist? Have you ever asked yourself what mass destruction weapons are used for? Or what good are they doing for humanity? Weapons of mass destruction are as useless as a roasted pork in Mecca completely and utterly useless, in fact, as it is obvious in the word “mass destruction”, it is only used to kills hundreds of thousands of people and do damage worth millions and millions of pounds.…
The United States decided to use atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. This bombing created devastation and death that the world had never seen before. The use of the atomic bombs has been a topic of intense debate for years following the bombing. Several reasons for such outcry pertaining to the use of the atomic bomb were the moral dilemmas behind the bombing, the mass destruction caused by the bombing, the horrible physical and emotional effects on the citizens of Japan, and strained relations between America and Japan.…
Do you think it's right to use chemical toxins to harm or kill people who are defending, or fighting for their lives? I don't and that is why I am aganist chemical warfare. There are other ways which can be used to defend your country without taking away the lives of many people in such a barbaric fashion. Chemical warfare takels many innocent lives even when they haven't done anything wrong! Chemical warfare is a way of torturing people with nerve, blister, and choking agents. It should be banned because there has been many attempts to ban it and soliders should not be allowed to make these poor people suffer.…
Americans that support strict weapon control have achieved the conclusion that this change guarantees the benefit of the states to claim guns. Firearm control laws specifically damage this privilege and accordingly should not be under thought. Regardless of the possibility that the issue is ignored, weapon control advocates express that with a specific end goal to diminish gun related viciousness, firearm control laws must be executed to expel the savagery created by guns. In spite of the fact that this may appear to be sensible, the outcomes of such laws are unexpectedly counterproductive; they worsen the issue as opposed to settling it. Other than the way that the Constitution ensures its residents the privilege to remain battle ready, possibly…
The atomic bomb is the most destructive weapon that has ever been used, so deadly it has never been used after the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It was not necessary to drop the bomb on these cities as there were many other ways that they could have made Japan surrender without dropping/developing the atomic bomb. However many believe that the atomic bomb should have been dropped on Japan so that the casualties could have been minimized for the allies. The United States had made 2 bombs to decimate 2 of the major Japanese military bases. A bomb so destructive that even its creator did not want to be used, he was quoted saying, "Now I have become the death destroyer of the world."…
These are weapons which include chemical, biological and radio active (nuclear) weapons, that have the capability to cause death and have extensive harm and destruction to the humans, their structures and the natural environment. The history of WMD would be better described if it is done by analyzing each type of weapons. There are three major categories of weapons of mass destruction these are:-…
Although proponents of capital punishment think that the death penalty is cheaper than life imprisonment because defendants will not have to be cared for after the execution, it is unlikely the case if the cost is based on the appeals process (SB). Capital punishment costs tax payers more than a life sentence because there are two different trials in capital prosecutions and each death row inmate is entitled to an appeal which imposes additional costs. In “The Costliest Punishment: A Correction Administrator Contemplates the Death Penalty,” Paul W. Keve specified what is considered in capital punishment cases:…
