Bringing Back The Bomb

Dan Stober and Jonathan S. Landay of the San Jose Mercury News reported last week that the "Bush administration is laying the groundwork for the resumption of nuclear testing and the development of new nuclear weapons." On Sunday, James Dao of the NY Times reported that the Bush administration was "gradually moving toward creating new kinds of nuclear weapons."

The Dao article quoted Edward J. Markey, a Representative from Massachusetts, as saying, "At a time when we are trying to discourage other countries — such as North Korea — from developing nuclear weapons, it looks hypocritical for us to be preparing to introduce a whole new generation of nuclear weapons into the arsenal."
