There has been a lot of talk within the United States about the possibility of developing new types of nuclear weapons, even to the extent of considering a new round of nuclear tests, but this is the first clear sign that such talk may be translated into action. Moreover, it fits in with the Bush doctrine of pre-emption which itself is not much more than an extension of hidden aspects of cold war doctrine.
Yikes. Paul Rogers on the
possible use of nuclear weapons against Iraq. Paul Rogers taught me at on my
BA and is a very nice man with a very deep voice which makes everything he says doubly scary.
