Going Non-Nuclear
Ploughshares Fund President Joseph Cirincione was quoted in a blog post by the Politico's Ben Smith, discussing the Obama administration's elimination of the reliable replacement warhead program:
"My colleagues just stared at that line," says Joe Cirincione, a longtime nonproliferation expert, referring to the line in the National Nuclear Security Administration program budget. "They had never seen anything like that." Killing the program, he said, was "the first programmatic impact of the new [zero nukes] policy. People have said they want to see more than words, this is the very first action."
