Abstract

Extermination as one of the behavioral examples of crimes against humanity is carried out in the context of a widespread or organized attack against a civilian population and with knowledge of the attack and is part of a continuous policy of misconduct and not random and isolated acts. Extermination may include acts that have consequences that are not immediate, but long-term; such as the indirect deadly effects of radiation from atomic bombing on water, air, soil, etc. on the surviving population as double extermination.


Now and in the coming years, the principle of non-recourse to force has been abolished and has been replaced by the principle of resorting to force in pursuit of national interests. In the atmosphere of the principle of resorting to force and the escalation of hostilities and ultimately bloody all-out wars, human society will undoubtedly face a multitude of war crimes and crimes against humanity such as genocide and extermination. Existing institutions do not have and will not have the power to prevent an all-out war, or at least the power necessary to prevent gross violations of the laws of war and respect for human rights. In an all-out war, nations cannot be saved from the scourge of horrific crimes by simply resorting to declining international institutions. In the coming years, which will be a critical and important period, only the principle of self-help and maximizing forces and completing the level of deterrence, i.e. equipping with an atomic bomb, testing it, and officially announcing entry into the nuclear club, can save the Iranian people and the territorial integrity of Iran. Although the atomic bomb cannot prevent wars 100%; But it can control its intensity and level and reduce the likelihood of the crime of annihilation, and this would be better than leaving a nation without nuclear weapons alone and defenseless against the almost certain and inevitable attack of nuclear powers, followed by civil wars through the entry of Takfiri movements
