The Moral, Practical, Necessary Invigoration of Nuclear Sanity By Jonathan Granoff https://www.ipsnews.net/2026/06/the-moral-practical-necessary-invigoration-of-nuclear-sanity/ NEW YORK, Jun 10 2026 (IPS) - Martin Luther King Jr. , when he received the Nobel Peace Prize, reminded us of “The fact that most of the time human beings put the truth about the nature and risks of the nuclear war out of their minds because it is too painful and therefore not ‘acceptable’, does not alter the nature and risks of such war. The device of ‘rejection’ may temporarily cover up anxiety, but it does not bestow peace of mind and emotional security.” I have devoted many decades of my life to not ignoring the risk of nuclear annihilation and since 1995 have attended every Review Conference of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty to learn and hopefully contributed to a saner safer world.
