Premises of Understanding:

1. Nuclear Weapons are fearfully, massively and widely destructive but potentially available to even a deranged perpetrator of disaster.

2. The Cold War was a stand-off of mutual fear of the horrendous retaliations to countering any launching or nuclear initiator.

3. Ostensible, verbal representation by all "Nuclear Club Members" or"hopefuls" is that their nuclear capabilities or weapons would never be used in aggressive first-strike attack on another nation or peoples.

4. There would be a deterrent if all citizens of any/all nations and people groups understood that any primary attack utilizing nuclear mass destruction would dutifully provoke massive multinational and planned retaliation (potential annihilation of a primary perpetrating people-group).

5. Well recognized is that a nuclear strike requires many participants in a launching; each knowledgeable person would be a "Fail-Safe" guardian knowing its disastrous and secondary multiple consequences. Thus, members of a nation could well be controlled by their own national base.

Therefore be it Resolved and Signed by U.N. Members that;

1. Any/all governments or people groups will never use their nuclear power, present or future for first-attacking any other people group (inter-national or intra-national).

2. Any Government which uses their nuclear power against any people group will be subject to:

a. Investigation by a U.N. nuclear "watch-dog" team,

b. Identification as first-strike perpetrators within a 7 day period of attack.

3. Each government & co-signer of this protective-shield-agreement will receive the defense of all other co-signers to give individual retaliation, (nuclear if possesses) toward any government that uses first-strike nuclear attack against its people-group from inside or outside national borders, (nuclear weapons will never to be used for primary offensive purposes).

4. All governments will regularly (every six months) verifiably inform each of its population of such inconceivable self-destruction if any of its leaders or members launches a primary nuclear attack.

5. Each nation will set up defensive mechanisms to ward off first-strikes of any deranged leader/country and would await U.N. identification of any other nation's utilization of a nuclear first-strike prior to joining in on the agreed-upon defensive retaliation. The U.N. will not be responsible for any war-type of retaliation but the agreement is!

This type of agreement could be adapted for protection from other WMDs. It also gives a respect to every unique sovereignty that has not had that approval from the "superior-minded" U.S.A.
