"Confrontation at the United Nations"
Super Collie gets political again - this time wondering why certain nuclear-armed nations seem intent on loudly accusing other nations of nuclear weapons proliferation while simultaneously refusing to even partially dismantle their own atomic arsenals.
The background was the original concept I had for the first "World Threat?" rendition in 2003, but I was only recently able to find a decent view of the UN HQ in New York.
The "smell the uranium on your breath" line is from a speech given by the
late New Zealand Prime Minister David Lange in the 1980s just after New Zealand enacted
legislation to ban nuclear-powered and nuclear-armed vessels from our ports - something which still ticks Uncle Sam off twenty years later!
