Physicists Say No To Nuking Iran

A group of 1,800 physicists, including five Nobel prize winners, sent a letter last week to the president admonishing his administration for "policies that open the door" to using nuclear weapons against Iran:

It is gravely irresponsible for the U.S. as the greatest superpower to consider courses of action that could eventually lead to the widespread destruction of life on the planet. We urge the administration to announce publicly that it is taking the nuclear option off the table in the case of all non-nuclear adversaries, present or future, and we urge the American people to make their voices heard on this matter.
