US President Barack Obama called a resolution adopted by the UN Security Council on Thursday "historic," saying that it enshrines international "commitment to a goal of a world without nuclear weapons."
With Obama presiding over the session, the UN Security Council unanimously approved a US-drafted resolution aimed at ridding the world of nuclear weapons, calling for stepped up efforts to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons, promote disarmament and "reduce the risk of nuclear terrorism."
Russia, China and developing nations supported the US-sponsored measure, giving it global clout and strong political backing.
"The historic resolution we just adopted enshrines our shared commitment to a goal of a world without nuclear weapons," Obama said immediately after the vote. "And it brings Security Council agreement on a broad framework for action to reduce nuclear dangers as we work toward that goal."
Just one nuclear weapon set off in a major city, "be it New York or Moscow, Tokyo or Beijing, London or Paris," could kill hundreds of thousands of people and cause major destruction, Obama said.
The council endorsed a global effort to "lock down all vulnerable nuclear materials within four years" and the president announced that the United States will host an April summit to advance compliance and assist all nations in achieving it.
The resolution does not mention any country by name but it reaffirms previous Security Council resolutions that imposed sanctions on Iran and North Korea for their nuclear activities. It does not call for any new sanctions.
The draft "expresses particular concern at the current major challenges to the nonproliferation regime that the Security Council has acted upon."
"This is not about singling out an individual nation," Obama said. "International law is not an empty promise, and treaties must be enforced."

You forgot the dancing bears and rainbows that this idiot promised everyone.
Superman IV.
Yeah, Obama in a Superman outfit.
(actually Richard Pryor’s album Super@#@#%) might be more fitting, but I cant post that particular picture here methinks..
Obama: Our goal is nuke-free world (except for Iran, China, and North Korea)
Right. Get rid of nukes.
Let us go back to the age of bayonets, static trenches, and water cooled machineguns.
“nuke-free” is code language same a “wedding cake”.
When the whole world is muslim, muslims won’t have to kill anybody except those perceived to be slightly less muslimy than themselves.
Maybe Obama didnt give up drugs, after all....
That won’t happen until Christ returns to earth and establishes his millenial reign.

In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king.
I’m not saying this is the guy. But if you have a Bible, read Daniel 8:25.
0bama must have gotten some "blow" -
LOL - thanks.
My goal is a liberal-free world.
Much better idea for whirled-peas.
That says it all..right after drinking Hopeyweiser 80-proof.
my gawd...he is just like those clowns who used to hang out on campus wearing Reagan masks and releasing red balloons back in the 80’s....except.....HE REALLY BELIEVES IT!!!!!
If it ever reaches that stage, then you will see the big showdown between the Shia and the Sunni ...

RESISTOR
Swear allegiance to the flag, whatever flag they offer;
Never hint at what you really feel.
Teach the children quietly for, someday, sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still.

OBAMA’S FAVORITE THINGS
Unicorn wind running cars without engines
Nobel Peace Prizes for machines without friction
Brown paper kilos all tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Kumbayah campfires and stiff Nehru collars
Bright Kwanza candles and stimulus dollars
Porkulus pigs flying ‘round us on wings
These are a few of my favorite things
African tyrants who I can be son to
Muslims in robes I can bow to and to scrape to
Lily white waiters to serve me and sing
These are a few of my favorite things
When Glenn Beck bites
When the Rush stings
When I’m feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don’t feel so bad
Daniel 8:12:
“And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.”
- American King James Version
“He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel secure, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. Yet he will be destroyed, but not by human power.”
- New International Version
Thanks for posting. And just to fix your typo (I make them too) - Daniel 8:25
Another interesting passage is this one, also from Daniel:
Daniel 11:36-39 (King James Version)
36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
37 Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
38 But in his estate shall he honour the god of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
39 Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge and increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.
Taking verse 37 in context along with 38, it’s clear the KJV should not have capitalized “god of forces”. The Antichrist honors the “god of forces” while disregarding the God of his fathers (the real God). This “god of forces” is a “god” his fathers knew not.
Will the Chinese and the Russians go along to the point where Islam takes over? I think not.
LOL!
Oh I’m just familiar with that one, and a few others, moreso than average.
:)
I have to use Bible Gateway a lot but they keep trying to force NIV on you in some places even though you’ve specified KJV as the default version.
And what was it when Reagan said, “We seek a world free of nuclear weapons”?
Of course, Scripture should be capitalized.
Reagan never went to the UN to apologize for America and seek the approval of enemies of the US, while PERSONALLY offering a resolution banning nuclear weapons in order to weaken the strategic position of the United States.
And Obama never ordered the destruction of a single nuclear weapon. Reagan did. Reagan signed the Intermediate Nuclear Forces treaty, removing missiles from Europe. Reagan signed START 1.
Fixed it.
Remember the song “Share the Land” by Guess Who?
Just hearing Obama go off on his widmills and Unicorns fantasies makes me think of it.
“Share the Land”
Have you been around
Have you done your share of coming down
On different things
that people do
Have you been aware
You got brothers and sisters who care
About what’s gonna happen to you
In a year from now...
Maybe I’ll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I’ll be there to share the land
That they’ll be giving away
When we all live together
We’re talking ‘bout together now
Did you pay your dues
Did you read the news
This morning when the paper
landed in your yard
Do you know their names
Can you play their games
Without losing track
And coming down a bit too hard...
Maybe I’ll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I’ll be there to share the land
That they’ll be giving away
When we all live together
We’re talking ‘bout together now
Shake your hand, share the land
Shake your hand, share the land
You know I’ll be standing by
To help you if you worry....
Obama has been in office a couple of months. How dare you compare Reagan’s 8 years with a communist, you jerkoff!
Hey, you’re the one claiming that a vision of a nuclear-free world is an absurd pipe dream.
