Nagasaki and Hiroshima illustrate how government makes us vulnerable especially to large-scale terrorism. While the partisans of government might claim government provides security, the available evidence shows that it makes us especially vulnerable to large scale terrorism, including biological, chemical and nuclear terrorism in a number of ways. Government creates terrorist weapons. Since it uncorked its nuclear genie over Hiroshima, revealing the face of government, government spread its technology, spread nuclear materiel, and created incentives for spreading the threat that faces us. With the available empirical evidence provided by the ominous historical record, we can rationally expect that government will develop new terrorist weapons next century.
Terrorism is part of government's modus operandi.
Government has used its terrorist weapons, including the Iraqi government's use of chemical weapons against innocent people, while the U.S. government nuking babies being the most infamous. While many do not realize that the U.N. embargo of Iraq is an example of terrorism, it clearly fits the definition. It has murdered approximately one million innocent persons, including 700,000 children, and the U.N. officials imposed it in order to affect Iraqi government policy. While the partisans of government might fantasize about changing its nature, changing it into a humanitarian institution, we realize that the available empirical evidence indicates the seriousness of the terrorism danger we face. Being ruled by government makes us vulnerable to terrorism.
