Thayer, Bradley A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012-13.
Summary/Abstract The drone debate continues hot and heavy. Critical issues range from the morality of targeting choices and concerns about unintended casualties and anti-Americanism to matters of legal and bureaucratic oversight.1 These are pressing questions; the United States' use of drones as a weapon of war is on the rise, and other countries are interested in acquiring them.2

Reaffirming the utility of nuclear weapons / Thayer, Bradley A; Skypek, Thomas M   Journal Article
Thayer, Bradley A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012-13.
Summary/Abstract A defining aspect of the present period in international politics is the lack of attention paid to nuclear weapons by United States' policymakers. To the extent these weapons are addressed, it is to consider significant reductions in the size of the US nuclear arsenal, to perhaps as few as 300 deployed strategic nuclear weapons, to advance the administration's nuclear disarmament goal. This push for reductions is part of a broader call for major reductions by organizations such as Global Zero.1 We argue that such reductions are strategically risky, signal weakness, and invite challenges from US foes and worry among US allies.
