A Strong Case for a New START a National Security Briefing Memo
A Strong Case for a New START A National Security Briefing Memo Max Bergmann and Samuel Charap April 6, 2010 What is New START and why do we need it? New START, the agreement between the United States and Russia on a successor to the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, is a historic achievement that will increase the United States’ safety and security. It will help us move beyond the outdated strategic approaches of the Cold War and reduce the threat of nuclear war, and marks a significant step in advancing President Barack Obama’s vision of a world without nuclear weapons. It also shows that his policy of constructive engagement with Russia is working. New START strengthens and modernizes the original START Treaty that President Ronald Reagan initiated in 1982 and George H.W. Bush signed in 1991. That agreement significantly reduced the number of nuclear weapons and launchers, but it also embodied Reagan’s favorite Russian proverb “trust but verify” by establishing an extensive verifica- tion and monitoring system to ensure compliance. This system helped build trust and mutual confidence that decreased the unimaginable consequences of а conflict between the world’s only nuclear superpowers. Yet President George W. Bush’s reckless policies left this cornerstone of nuclear stability’s fate in doubt. Bush effectively cut off relations between the United States and Russia on nuclear issues by unilaterally pulling out of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty and refusing to engage in negotiations on a successor to START even though it was set to expire less than a year after he left office.

With the making of humankind as male and female, He even declared His creation to be very good. Paradise was the location; abundant life was the experience, that is, until the taint of sin covered the world through the rebellion of Adam and Eve against their Creator. As a result, humanity lost its paradise and was separated from the God who created all things good. Death was God’s warning for disobedience, and death became the reality—the death of living apart from God (sin), the death of life (physical death), and the death of eternal separation from God’s goodness (spiritual death). But the God of all good things was not finished. He called a people to Himself to be a light to the world. He gave them His holy expectations that they should follow them. He made provision for sin through sacrifices. And even when His people continued to rebel against Him, He promised life from death. In comes Jesus, the Son of God sent into the world to make all things new. “In him was life, and that life was the light of men” (John 1:4). “Full of grace and truth,” Jesus obeyed all of the Father’s holy expectations (1:14). He is “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” (1:29).

President Obama’s Foreign Policy Vision: Defining the Obama Doctrine Based on: The Obama Doctrine: Hindering American Foreign Policy, The Heritage Foundation’s Lecture Event featuring Dr. Kim Holmes and Dr. Henry Nau, September 30, 2010. Defining the Obama Doctrine, Its Pitfalls, and How to Avoid Them by Kim Holmes, Ph.D., and James Carafano, Ph.D., Published by The Heritage Foundation, September 1, 2010 Obama’s Foreign Policy by Henry Nau, Published by Hoover Institution, Policy Review, Number 160, September 29, 2010 What Are the Key Tenets of the Obama Doctrine? By Kim Holmes, Ph.D. and James Carafano, Ph.D. Published online at The Heritage Foundation (no date provided) Almost two years into his term, President Obama had hoped to improve America’s standing in the world by crafting a foreign policy vastly different from his predecessor’s. His statements and actions demonstrate a doctrine that sees America less as “the exceptional nation” than as an “equal partner,” one nation among many. Characteristics of his policies include a heightened emphasis on multilateralism, an apologetic attitude toward the past, a more restrained role on the global stage, and an atmosphere of mutual respect toward oppressive autocracies. Examining the principles and policies advanced thus far by the Obama Administration, Professor Henry Nau and former Assistant Secretary of State Kim R. Holmes analyzed whether the unfolding Obama Doctrine has in fact improved America’s standing in the world and our national interests According to Dr. Holmes and Dr. Nau, President Obama has “laid out in his public statements, the tenets of a doctrine that, if enacted, would enable his Administration to remake America as one nation among many, with no singular claim either to responsibility or exceptionalism.

How did we get here? The Disinformation Age assembles a remarkable group of historians, political scientists, and communication scholars to examine the historical and political origins of the post-fact information era, focusing on the United States but with lessons for other democracies. Bennett and Livingston frame the book by examining decades-long efforts by political and business interests to undermine authoritative institutions, including parties, elections, public agencies, science, independent journalism, and civil society groups. The other distinguished scholars explore the historical origins and workings of disinformation, along with policy challenges and the role of the legacy press in improving public communication.

Published by the Arms Control Association and Fissile Materials Working Group; July 2018 https://www.armscontrol.org/events/2018-07/nuclear%C2%A0security-summit-process-state- global-nuclear-security-architecture The Nuclear Security Summit (NSS) process significantly strengthened the global nuclear security architecture and brought high-level political attention to the risk posed by nuclear terrorism. The NSS pioneered the use of regular and voluntary nuclear security commitment-making by states and groups of states, leading to the creation of an effective new tool for continuously improving the nuclear security regime. While the NSS process ended in 2016, the threat posed by nuclear terrorism remains and the nuclear security regime must continue to evolve to address it.
