I don't think that if we gave up half our nukes, Iran or N. Korea would give up theirs. I DO think if we were seen to be working HARD to "build down" our and Russia's arsenal, we'd have the moral authority to gain the support of MANY more countries than we have now. Maybe enough to force a real, meaningful UN action against Iran, with a majority of the world's countries participating.

Countries aquiring nuclear weapons are going to be an ongoing problem that just gets worse, as the technology advances. We need to be getting a handle on it NOW. ( actually, way before now, but better late than never )

It's the kind of an initiative a Clinton or Carter might do, but Bush will never do. He doesn't have the patience or the diplomatic skill.
