About 50 senior think tank and advocacy executives packed the K Street conference room of the Ploughshares Fund [2] to strategize and rally the troops for the upcoming policy war. "This is going to be the fight of our lives," said Ploughshares Fund President Joe Cirincione [3] shortly after the meeting concluded today. The Cable [4] reported that "the meeting, which included representatives from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace [5], the Brookings Institution [6], the Nuclear Threat Initiative [7], the Arms Control Association [8], the Council for a Livable World [9], the Federation of American Scientists [10], and others, was about marshalling those organizations' combined resources and preparing a full-on campaign to press their shared goals now."
