Pax Christi USA has issued a news release condemning the nuclear test by North Korea.
In its news release Pax Christi USA said:
The only way that the United States should expect nuclear nonprolife-ration is by ending its insanity of using the possession of nuclear weapons as a way of guaranting nuclear deterence. We are back to the MAD days, the days when Mutual Assured Distruction was a means to prevent war.
May we do what we can to defend ourselves from this madness.

In its news release Pax Christi USA said:
The test by North Korea underscores the failure of U.S. leadership in dealing with the growing problem of nuclear proliferation as well as the ongoing failure of U.S. compliance with its own commitments to eliminate its arsenal under Article VI of the Nonproliferation Treaty. That commitment was affirmed in 1996 by the International Court of Justice when it stated unambiguously: “There exists an obligation to pursue in good faith and bring to a conclusion negotiations on nuclear disarmament.”
The only way that the United States should expect nuclear nonprolife-ration is by ending its insanity of using the possession of nuclear weapons as a way of guaranting nuclear deterence. We are back to the MAD days, the days when Mutual Assured Distruction was a means to prevent war.
