"The only way to ensure that such weapons will never again be used is to eliminate them all," he said. "There must be no place in our world for such indiscriminate weapons."

I really have no problem with sending a delegation to the event, but lets not pretend these weapons were just dropped for the hell of it.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon .... called for all nations to work together to create a world free from nuclear weapons. "The only way to ensure that such weapons will never again be used is to eliminate them all,"

Brilliant!

If nuclear weapons are outlawed, only outlaw nations will have nuclear weapons.

"Indiscriminate"? Like hell they were, they only killed Japanese.

In the final analysis, fewer Japanese died in the atomic blasts than would have in a conventional invasion. I'd call that one discriminating weapon. The people who want it banned want us to die.
