Congressional Strategic Posture Commission report called 'strategic failure'

Analyzing the recently-released report by the Congressional Strategic Posture Commission, Ivan Oelrich and Hans M. Kristensen of the Ploughshares-funded Federation of American Scientists called the report, “a work of deeply disappointing failure of imagination.” They criticized the Commission for “surrendering to the nuclear problems of the world rather than recommending a proactive way forward out of the mess.” They added, “It would be ironic if the [upcoming] Pentagon’s Nuclear Posture Review ends up recommending bigger changes than the Commission. That shouldn’t be hard.”
