Our troops must leave Iraq
Congress must act. Although Congress never declared war, as required by the Constitution, they did give the president the authority to invade Iraq. Congress must now withdraw that authority and cease its funding of the war.

The greatest immediate danger to humanity
The more nuclear weapons in the world, the more likely they will end up in the hands of terrorist extremists incapable of being deterred. The longer nations rely on nuclear weapons for security, the more likely it is that they will be used, by accident or design.

Preventing
a nuclear 9/11
The greatest failure of imagination on the part of leaders in the
nuclear weapons states is their belief that they can continue with nuclear
business as usual while expecting that these weapons will not eventually
end up in the hands of terrorists. Their own possession of nuclear weapons
is a form of nuclear terrorism.

Why
nations go nuclear
Understanding the reasons why a country chooses to go nuclear are complex,
variable and speculative, but I would offer as a hypothesis four principal,
though often overlapping factors: fear, security, enhancing the country's
bully potential or countering another country's bully potential, and
prestige. North Korea seems to be pioneering a fifth reason: to use
the weapons as a bargaining chip to gain security guarantees and financial
concessions.

The
Non-Proliferation treaty is failing: What
now?
Lists the problems with the NPT and the states ignoring it.
"In effect, we are calling for two new treaties: a Nuclear
Disarmament Treaty and a Treaty Establishing an
International Sustainable Energy Agency. These are the only
initiatives that have a reasonable chance of moving us back
from the terrifying edge of the nuclear precipice. By
Richard Falk and David Krieger.

India,
Iran and U.S. nuclear
hypocrisy
The Bush administration seeks to reward India for
noncooperation with the Non-Proliferation Treaty and for
developing a nuclear weapons arsenal, while Iran is
threatened with punishment for being part of the treaty and
seeking to exercise its rights under the treaty. This
approach is likely to lead to a major breakdown of the
Non-Proliferation Treaty and the international regime that
supports it.

Iran,
international law and nuclear
disarmament
In a soft, matter-of-fact voice the author debunks the main
Western arguments against Iran. He then tells what must be
done. "The only safe number of nuclear weapons in the world
is zero." So to stop nuclear proliferation, the nuclear
powers must show the way and live up to their obligations
under international law and scrap theirs. Unrealistic?
Everything else, says Krieger, will be more unrealistic.

US
nuclear Hypocrisy: Bad for the U.S., bad for the
world
The fault for the failure of the NPT conference lies clearly
with the Bush administration, which must take full
responsibility for undermining the security of every
American by its double standards and nuclear hypocrisy. Adn
the fault is not with Iran...
