OU "Soldaten sind Mörder" (Kurt Tucholsky), nicht nur Opfer (als "Gefallene"), sondern sie werden für den Ernstfall, d.h. das Töten, ausgebildet. Und Waffen schaffen nicht mehr Sicherheit auf der Welt, sind nicht Lösung, sondern Ursache bzw. Verstärker vieler Probleme und gewaltvoller Konflikte. Es gibt allenfalls sehr wenige "gerechtfertigte" (nötige) Kriege, weshalb es im Zweifelsfall zunächst gilt, gegen JEDEN Krieg zu sein.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. The format is approximately 10.25 inches by 10.25 inches. xxxiii, [1], 427, [3] pages. Endpaper map. Illustrations, Map. Index. The dust jacket has some edgewear and soiling. Foreword by Keith Schneider. This is a large, heavy book and if sent outside of the United States will require additional shipping charges. Gift inscription (not from author) on the half-title page. Laid in the book is a remarkable four page (approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches) hand written letter that starts out "Dearest Helen, This is a book I bought to study and learn the effects of the bomb testing that your Dad was exposed to during the Korean War." The "Dad" was apparently Alex Gordon who experienced an atomic test outside of Desert Rocks, Nevada on April 18, 1953. Operation Upshot-Knothole was a series of eleven nuclear test shots conducted in 1953 at the Nevada Test Site. It followed Operation Ivy and preceded Operation Castle. Over 21,000 soldiers took part in the ground exercise Desert Rock V. The test on April 18th was designated Badger and was a component test of the TX-16 using a cryogenic mockup secondary and the TX-16 radiation case. "As you look at Carole Gallagher's powerful pictures and read her angry words, you may be reminded of James Agee's Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, with Walker Evans' photographs of poor tenant farmers in the rural South. . . . Ms. Gallagher's book deserves to be read as a crusading story of the consequences of the nuclear-arms industry's linger-ing contamination and deception: as an American Chernobyl." The New York Times, Herbert Mitgang. American Ground Zero is the extraordinary product of one photojournalist's decade-long commitment, a gripping, courageous collection of portraits and interviews of those whose lives were crossed by radioactive fallout. For twelve years beginning in 1951, the United States government conducted above ground testing of nuclear weapons in the deserts of Nevada. For more than four decades it has tried to cover up the human and environmental devastation wrought by this testing. In American Ground Zero, Carole Gallagher has penetrated the veil of official secrecy and anonymity to document the incredible untold story of the Americans whose misfortune it was to live downwind of the nuclear detonations - those citizens described in a top-secret Atomic Energy Commission memo as "a low-use segment of the population" - and of civilian workers and military personnel exposed to radiation at the Nevada Test Site. The above ground nuclear testing was "the most prodigiously reckless program of scientific experimentation in United States history," Keith Schneider notes in his foreword to the book. Many of its 126 fallout clouds floated across the American West and eastward with radiation levels comparable to those released at Chernobyl. Yet residents of the downwind areas were consistently told that there was no danger, and were even encouraged to "participate in a moment of history" by coming out to watch these fallout clouds drifting over their homes. Abandoning her career as a successful New York photographer, Carole Gallagher moved to Utah in 1983 and spent the next ten years networking among radiation survivors' groups and finding people willing to be photographed and tell their story. She covered six downwind states in all, including Test Site workers and atomic veterans. The result is a striking gallery of the undecorated casualties of an undeclared war. Never exploitative, Gallagher's photographs only rarely convey the subjects' considerable physical sufferings: instead, they invite the viewer to witness the beauty and value in these ordinary lives.
