Disarm am ent Week

by Butch Trischman Now that Disarmament Week has passed, I think that it would be justified to contribute a piece of germane comment.

Ostensibly, the concept of unify­ ing the populace in support of a more peaceful world is com­ mendable. Never in the history of the world, has there been such a colossal threat to every living creature on the globe.

Moreover, it seems that to achieve the coveted “superpow­ er" status, a country must be capable of blowing up the planet at least 500 times. Mankind has wedged a foot in the door of an age, where life on earth could cease to exist. I like to refer to our time as “the era of superflu­ ous arsenal."

The message of a “Disarmament Week" is warrant­ ed; the sacrifice admirable. With all its attributes of great mes­ sengers, the disarmers lack one ingriedient: a comprehension of the world situation. It takes only a rudimentary knowledge of his­ tory to define which forces on the globe should be labeled as threats. Fortunately, there are only two such threats that could be feared as antagonists to Armageddon. The two factions are: powerful terrorist organiza­ tions, and the Soviet Union.

The Soviet Union is present­ ly the world’s most awesome death machine. In accordance with Marxist doctrine, the Soviet Union has incessantly invaded bit by bit. This can't be denied; fact is fact. In addition, the

Soviets (now called the USSR), have no intention of relenting on their ordained mission of spreading the virtues of Communism. (I don’t think any member of the Politburo would deny this). Right now, there is a Soviet sub (for the third time in a year) in Swedish waters gathering intelli­ gence.

“Simply maneuvers”, you say?

No way.

Scandinavia will be the next region to fall to the Soviets.

invaded Afghanistan if the Soviets hadn't beaten them to it?

Ideally, the notion of disarming the world should be applauded.

Living in fear of the ultimate Apocalypse is the single disease that afflicts every educat­ ed human being. The aggressive ‘disarm­ ers’ should address the global agitators.

History shows that disarming peace-lov­ ing countries such as Canada or the US is pr a gmat i c al l y unfeasable.

THE SSMU HANDBOOK DOES NOT ACCURATELY REFLECT THE SERVICES, IDEOLOGY OR VIEWS OF SACOMSS (THE SEXUAL ASSAULT CENTRE OF M cGILL STUDENTS' SOCIETY) 1) Neither drugs, nor alcohol are needed for sexual assault to occur.

2) SACOMSS does not make a distinction between sexual harassment and sexual assault, both are equally serious problems surging from the sam e source.

3) SACOMSS never limits its services to only going through McGill's grievance procedures. We attempt to provide a medium to help students and others through as many m eans as possible.

4) SACOMMS provides services to both men and w om en indiscriminately since sexual assault is a problem affecting both genders.
