Luca De Fiore: Scientists speak out against the EU rearmament proposal

Luca De Fiore, Ceo of the Il Pensiero Scientifico Editore, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“Rearmament? For many scientists it is a serious mistake.

Scientists and researchers are speaking out against the European Union’s rearmament proposal. A manifesto calling on scientists, engineers, health professionals, mathematicians, scholars and the wider scientific community to support their position has been released: Scientists Against Rearmament.

The document reads:

‘Humanity faces enormous global challenges, from climate change to famine in the Southern Hemisphere, great economic inequalities, growing risks of pandemics, nuclear war. The last thing we need today is for the Old Continent to move from a beacon of stability and peace to becoming a new warlord.’

And he quotes Bertrand Russell:

‘In this world, which is getting more and more closely interconnected, we have to learn to tolerate each other, we have to learn to put up with the fact that some people say things that we don’t like. We can only live together in that way. But if we are to live together, and not die together, we must learn a kind of charity and a kind of tolerance, which is absolutely vital to the continuation of human life on this planet.’

The idea that pace depends on having the upper hand militarily over the other parties only leads to escalation, and escalation leads to war.

Thanks to Mauro Biani for his intelligence in grasping the meaning of what is happening.”
