Isn’t Obola also a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate.

Helen Caldicott no longer practices medicine. Todd the DR. She despises capitalism. What’s left? Another Nobel Laureate Marxist fascist parading around untarnished by the propaganda press.

Sssshhhhhhhh...

Obola is a peace humanitarian of the highest order.

Strangely enough, humanity is in massive danger today, because this incompetent fruit-loop was installed as our Pres__ent _resident.

I’m not buying into the idea Vlam Poopin in stupid enough to think he can use his nukes though.

Course with this idiot in there, and our recent obvious lapses in defensive protection capabilities, he could certainly be understood if he thought he could use them with impunity.

Helen Caldicott, man, that’s a blast from the past.

She is as nutty as ever, and just as wrong.

She is a very far left nut. Just like most UN award and all award winners. They just give their “prizes” to each other. BLAH!!! I have watched her speak and she gave me the creeps.

I don’t disagree that we shouldn’t be expanding NATO right up to their borders. But I think his stating that we are “taking over” countries on the border is false.

The same attitude gave us WWII. Russian delivery systems are mostly old junk, weapons were not maintained, so fissile material is mostly depleted, making them just dirty bombs. Adding the above together gives Russians a bunch of failed launches and contamination of their own land. Of course, we need to account for their epic stupidity and propensity to disregard human lives, including their own. We need to deal with just the bottom line: a sizable bunch of Neanderthals ready to die for their Mordor. I say let ‘em.

I paid a little attention to her at one time, I used to have some of her publications to show people who she was.

Before the internet we had to physically collect their works to discredit them and as sources.

The world is in far greater danger of nuclear war from failure to stop Iran's nuclear program. There's absolutely no question that when they have the capability -- as well as nuclear-armed ICBMs to threaten the U.S. -- they'll try to take out Israel. Israel, of course, won't allow itself to be a sitting duck. Any nuclear confrontation there will become catastrophic.

With both Iran and Pakistan armed with "Islamic Bombs," the world will become a very scary place. Add in the NK loose cannon, China's expansionist aims and the likelihood of nuclear confrontation fairly soon is almost inevitable.

Russians are down to 142 million people today, with an Army under 300,000, they have no intention of going out in a nuclear blaze of glory.

hey, when Reagan was president wasn’t Caldicott telling us that nuclear war was a “mathematical certainty” unless we surrendered...?

30 years later, exactly the same sales pitch from this communist/russian apologist...

Caldicott was an antinuclear activist back in the 70s and 80s, peddling unilateral disarmament. Didn't know she was still alive. Still stupid after all these years. With the current screech she is becoming incoherent around the edges.

And Yasser Arafat.

A mockworthy award now, and all recipients must be scrutinized.

You can frantically hope all you want, but decades of consistently taught Russian Military doctrine indicates that Russia will use nukes to retain Crimea if it requires that. If the military has to install a new premier to do so.

Sometimes sticking your head in the sand and shouting la la la la accomplishes nothing whatsoever.

Perhaps you can point to where I said the U. S. or anyone else should retake Crimea from Russia.

Under the current situation, the U. S. nor NATO is shaping up to confront Russian in any meaningful way.

No, I don’t see Russia using nukes. The Mad Doctrine is still playing out today.

As for the Russian military, it hasn’t exactly impressed in Eastern Ukraine.

Appeasement now, appeasement forever and find rest in the Gulag and the Grave! If she had been around in her native Australia in the 1930s, she would have been making peace with Imperial Japan and its Axis partners.

Thanks Tailgunner Joe.
Dr. Helen Caldicott... is an Australian physician who founded the International Physicians against Nuclear War, a group that under her leadership won the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize. She is the former president of the Nuclear Policy Research Institute based in Washington.
IOW, she advocates unilateral disarmament and welcomes the historical inevitability of communism, just like Obama, whom she criticizes not for his constant retreat but for his imaginary provocations. In still OW, what's her FR nick?
