Group to decry
Libya bombing
By JULIET NADER
News editor
A group of nuclcar freeze advocates will sponsor
a protest today to show South Carolina's congressional
delegation they don't want the United States
to bomb Libya again.
From 12:15 until 1 p.m., three speakers in the
courtyard of the Strom Thurmond Building on
Assembly Street will voice their opinions on the recent
U.S. attack, according to Kay Johnson, a
member of the Columbia Nuclear Weapons Freeze
Campaign.
The protest will be called "A Vigil in Protest of
the American Bombing of Libya."
Bruce Pearson, a Quaker, will discuss non-violent
ways of dealing with Libya. Middle East native
Snahrough Akhavi, a USC government and international
studies professor, will discuss internal conflicts
in that area.
Finally, Sulaiman Aljuraid, another Middle East
native who is a GINT graduate student at USC, will
use personal exnerirnro; tr> hie

the bombing.
"Wc hope to get enough people to show up to
prove to the representatives that wc don't want
them to bomb Libya again," Johnson said. "There
are peaceful solutions to this."
Doctor attacks Stc
By AMY DELPO
Senior reporter
Nuclear war would be more likely if the Strategic
Defense Initiative becomes a reality, said Dr.
Donald Luria of the Physicians for Social
Responsibility.
l.uria also criticized the U.S. attack on Libya during
his lecture at Gambrell Hall on Thursday.
"If 'Star Wars' ever worked, both sides would
now have this defense that's very effective, and
whichever side figures out how to circumvent that
has a gargantuan advantage because it is protected
and the other side is not," Luria told an audience in
Gambrell Hall on Thursday.
The nation with such an advantage would be in a
situation to make a first strike possible, said Luria,
who is chairman of preventive medicine at the
Medical College of New Jersey.
"If there is a pre-emptive nuclear strike, it is not
likely to come from either major power and
therefore not likely to occur," Luria said. "The
Soviets are cautious. The likelihood of the Soviets
attacking the United States is miniscule."
Luria called the arms race "hideous" and said
everyone in the Soviet Union and the United States
must accept the fact that both nations have ample
deterrents.
"Every one of these military people think that all
you have to give them is a few more $100 billion and
tire you mi

one more weapon system for peace," Luria said.
He also criticized the recent U.S. attack on L.ibya,
saying our relations will worsen as a result.
"We kill people, and we're proud of killing people,
which is very bad," he said. "There's
something very wrong with that.

massive nuclcar holocaust.
"We'll be lucky if this escalation stops, but
Americans are going to be killed all over the
world."
One of the main points of Luria's speech,
"Nuclear War and the Assumption of Responsibility,"
is than everyone in the United States is responsible
for what the government does.
"We have to persuade everybody in this country
that because we are a democracy, when our government
acts, each of us is tarnished by our government's
action," he said. "We are the government."
The best way to get involved is through writing
letters to the press, the Congress and the president,
Luria said. He said the chances of nuclcar war
would be lessened by a comprehensive nuclear test
ban and the ratification of other treaties with the
Soviet Union, such as SALT II.
Luria's speech was part of a week of activities on
U.S.-Soviet relations sponsored by USC's Alliance
for Peace.
