The
elimination of nuclear weapons is most likely to occur through
sequential steps.
-
A frequent beginning step recommended by many experts is
de-alerting,
that is, taking weapons off quick-launch alert.
-
Some experts are uncertain about the final course to the
total elimination of nuclear weapons but want to achieve
deep
cuts that approach zero.
-
In the process of promoting non-proliferation of nuclear
weapons, it may be necessary to eliminate incipient programs
for production of weapons of mass destruction. Disarming
Iraq is currently the focus of such activity.
Ideas
on de-alerting, deep cuts, and disarming Iraq are presented
here.
