August 06, 2014 marks the 69th year since the bombing of Hiroshima. At a time when we might be spiraling rapidly into another world war --we all need to consider who is holding the puppet strings on possibly all of the leaders involved, and decide if we really wish to give up our values and sense of humanity in order to assuage the fear and anger that are inspired by false illusions. From the article: It may not be widely known that many high-ranking military officers serving in the US armed forces at the time were opposed to the bombings, and went on record to say that they believed the use of two atomic bombs against Japan (the first against the city of Hiroshima on August 06, 1945 and the second against the city of Nagasaki on August 09, 1945) was unnecessary and morally wrong... ...Because most people recognize violations of natural law, and reject it, it generally takes a concerted and coordinated effort to convince large numbers of people that a violation of natural law is actually something to applaud rather than something to reject. Two previous posts in particular have discussed this subject: Lysander Spooner, natural law, and human consciousness, and A Memorial Day meditation on natural universal law. In those two previous essays, quotations from nineteenth-century natural law advocate, anti-slavery abolitionist, and philosopher Lysander Spooner are cited in which Spooner declares: - that acting as an officer of government in any capacity does not give anyone the right to violate natural universal law, - that artificially-enacted laws which violate natural universal law may and must be resisted at all times (and must not be obeyed until they are overturned, as some incorrectly argue), - that officers of government who violate natural universal law may and must also be declared to be criminals and treated as such, and - that those who try to argue that artificial law can ever trump natural law will always resort to pretences and disguises to try to overcome the innate human revulsion towards violations of natural universal law. The twin facts of the high numbers of American military officers who were appalled and revolted by the decision to use the atomic bomb against Japan, and the situation in which questioning this decision has been declared to be unpatriotic, anti-American, and off limits in the decades since, indicate that the use of the two atomic bombs was in fact completely in violation of natural law, and that pretences and disguises have been heavily employed in the decades since in order to try to cover-over this violation. mathisencorollary.blogspot/2014/08/august-06-2014.html
