WMD, Nukes & Nuns

"Where are the WMD? It doesn't take a team of international inspectors to find the truth. Three nuns performed this service for free. Even as America sent its military forces into Iraq on the grounds that Saddam "might" have had Weapons of Mass Destruction, three nuns set out to open America's eyes to the WMD we cherish here at home.

to order WMD, Nuns and Nukes

 

The author writes:

My latest book, "WMD, Nukes & Nuns" (Algora Publishing, New York) is out and can be obtained through Amazon.com. It is likely that most local bookstores will not have it in stock, but it's possible to order it there or from Barnes & Noble. If you have in mind to order multiple copies, you may be able to obtain a price break by contacting Algora Publishing directly.

Most of you know me as a liberal, but don't let that discourage you.The book is not about being liberal or conservative, unless trying to be morally correct in our morally incorrect times is considered one or the other. I hope to interest you in buying and READING the book as Christians and Americans. It's a good read about what's wrong with the world today--as figured out by three nuns who spent several years in jail for protesting WMD and trying to keep us out of war.

Let me use the back-cover "teaser" that the publisher uses to describe the book's contents:

Armed with nothing but a rosary, a call for moral courage, and a pair of fence-cutting pliers, three nuns spilled their own blood from baby bottle on the concrete dome of a missile silo in the midst of the sagebrush prairie. The stage was set for this peaceful protest by a sequence of events rooted in diplomatic and economic machinations going back to 1991 and before.

No sign of WMD was found in Iraq, though no stone was left unturned and no office left unburned. Here in the U.S., three nuns were sent to jail for "undermining national security." Apparently, no one appreciates an unexpected wake-up call. The three nuns went to jail, and the whole world went to hell in a handbasket.

This book is about the injustice of the U.S. federal courts which sent the nuns to jail for virtuous condict, and the public that preferred not to hear about it. It's about political immorality and the meaning of justice in a nation where it seems to be illegal to carry out non-violent protests against mass killing. The book also reveals the corporate sources of the Weapons of Mass Destruction that were delivered to Saddam Hussein in the 1980's and raises troubling questions about responsibility.

What the cover copy does not reveal, but the book does, is this: The WMD technology of Iraq came from the White House when presidents considered Hussein to be America's CIA asset. It came from people who are STILL in political power. Those same powerful people wiped out all traces of their own WMD fingerprints by means of war, protecting the guilty.

Friends, let me say in a jesting manner, that if I disappear some day under mysterious circumstances, read between the lines of this book for the answer!  Meantime, you might also want to read my previous book, "Prophets Without Honor: A Requiem for Moral Patriotism."
