Dear Sirs,
I write to each of you individually, in the name of present and future generations.
It is often said that one person cannot change the world, but today you are that person. You have been selected as your people's leaders.
You owe them, and to those to come, a world of peace and prosperity, a world in which we can live and our children grow without the fear of nuclear weapons, of no chances, of no future.
It is your moral and genetic duty to restore peace. You have that ability. Your people, my people, our people do not want wars, we want peace.
The Hammurabi code, "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" has been proven a bad policy. Countless generations have employed it with disastrous consequences.
It is time to render it obsolete and find a new way. I know many people have suffered to the hands of others. It will be incredible hard to let go of the pain and the killings, but we must, if we are to survive as a race.
This is a call for peace. Please work together so no more lives are lost. Join against our common enemies: violence, hunger, disease, poverty, drought. Stop using our resources into fighting each other; they are not your resources, they are ours.
Wars only benefit the few people that sell weaponry. Stop enriching them and impoverishing us.
No more wars. No more Hitlers, Osamas or Bad Villains. No more genocides. No more bombings. No more killings. No more. I say no more. Your people say no more. The world says NO MORE! Will you listen?
Please remember that history doesn't forget. You will be remembered for the choices you make today.
Regards,
B. M. Whitton.
