The Nuclear Bible: Nuclear Dictator Barrack Hussein Obama

Intro:Starting as early as Barack Obamas 2008 Democratic Presidential campaign against then New York Senator Hillary Clinton,Obama has been stating that the U.S. must attack Pakistan. Along with the warmongering rhetoric, Obama has acted in a rather bi-polarmanner regarding the development and use of nuclear weapons in a preemptive strike against terrorists. Should a nuclear attack occur atthe Super Bowl on February 6, 2011, it will occur during Black History month, making it even harder for Americans to qu estion Obamasdecisions without being labeled as racist. Unfortunately, Obama will make the worst kind of history as he openly retaliates in a nuclearmanner against Pakistan and others defenseless Middle Eastern nations. Obamas decision to retaliate against nuclear terror with nuclearterror will kill millions and will make Obama the most infamous U.S. President ever, and will eventually be used by Globalists to furtherdrive a stake into the heart of race relations in America. After a preemptive nuclear attack, with n o real evidence (like 9/11), the U.S.sglobal reputation will be soiled to the point of no return. At this point, a lot of ignorant and racist people will lash out at African Americansdue to Obamas genocidal policies, playing right into the hands of theGlobalists Divide and Conquer dialectic. One thing can be sure,Obama was chosen to play this part, and is likely destined to become the 1 st Nuclear Dictator the World has ever seen. While it isimpossible to know for sure, Obamas codename may be Blackjack, which just happens to be the name of Chapter 21.

Abstract: During the 2008 Democratic Presidential election, BarackObama ruled out the use of nuclear weapons to go after Al Qaedaor Taliban targets in Afghanistan or Pakistan Obama, a first-term senator from Illinois, told a reporter after a Capitol Hill event that hewould not use nuclear weapons in those countries, an aide said "His position could not be more clear," said Obama spokeswoman JenPsaki. "He would not consider using nuclear weapons to fight terror targets in Afghanistan and Pakistan." That position came a dayafter Obama vowed he would be willing to strike Al Qaeda targets inside Pakistan with or without the approval of the government ofPakistani President Pervez Musharraf. 2008 Democratic presidential candidate Chris Dodd, a senator from Connecticut, also criticizedObama, saying that over the last several days, "Senator Obama's assertions about foreign and military affairs have been, frankly, confusingand confused. He has made threats he should not make and made unwise categorical statements about military options." "We are facing a

dangerous and complicated world. The next president will require a level of understanding and judgment unprecedented in

American history to address these challenges" Dodd said (Holland, 2007).

Title/Headline: Obama Says Time To Rid World of Nuclear Weapons

Abstract: Sen. Barack Obama on Wednesday said he wants to rid the world of nuclear weapons and pledged to fight emerging threatsposed by biological and cyber-terrorism. "It's time to send a clear message to the world: America seeks a world with no nuclear

weapons," the White House hopeful said. "As long as nuclear weapons exist, we'll retain a strong deterrent. But we'll make the

goal of eliminating all nuclear weapons a central element in our nuclear policy." The remarks, delivered at Purdue University inIndiana before a roundtable discussion with foreign policy experts, come as the senator from Illinois is preparing for a trip abroad. Obamaalso is seeking to gain traction on national security issues. In a fact sheet distributed to reporters, Obama's campaign said he will work toeliminate all nuclear weapons, but will not commit the United States to giving them up while other states retain them. Going after one ofJohn McCain's signature issues, the war in Iraq, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee said invading the country after theSeptember 11, 2001, attacks has allowed other emerging threats to develop. "Instead of taking aggressive steps to secure the world's

most dangerous technology, we have spent almost a trillion dollars to occupy a country in the heart of the Middle East that nolonger had any weapons of mass destruction," he said. "It's time to update our national security strategy to stay one step ahead of

the terrorists -- to see clearly the emerging threats of our young century and to take action to make the American people more safe

and secure. "It's time to look ahead -- at the dangers of today and tomorrow rather than those of yesterday. America cannot affordanother president who doesn't understand the threats that confront us now and in the future," he said. Obama, who plans to visitEurope and the Middle East this month, said nuclear terrorism is "the gravest danger we face," and said he would seek to rally internationalsupport to place increased pressure on Iran and North Korea over their apparent nuclear ambitions. " Both of these nations have a history

of support for terror," he said. "Both should face strong and increasing sanctions if they refuse to verifiably abandon their illicit

nuclear programs. And both demand sustained, aggressive and direct diplomatic attention from the United States, and that's what

I'll provide as president." The presidential candidate also pledged to protect the country from the threat of biological and cyber attacks."We know that the successful deployment of a biological weapon -- whether it is sprayed into our cities or spread through our foodsupply -- could kill tens of thousands of Americans and deal a crushing blow to our economy," he said. The campaign also said

Obama will seek to secure all nuclear weapons materials in four years and to increase funding by $1 billion a year to make sure

nuclear weapons are removed from vulnerable sites around the world. The scene of Obama's remarks was no accident -- Indiana is astate that has long voted Republican in presidential elections but one the Democrat's campaign is hoping to make competitive this cycle.Taking part in the roundtable discussion with Obama was Indiana's Democratic U.S. senator, Evan Bayh, a popular figure from a powerful

political family. Obama also went out of his way to praise Indiana's other senator, Republican Dick Lugar. The two teamed up in the Senateon legislation seeking to curb the threat of loose nuclear weapons. Former Sen. Sam Nunn of Georgia also joined Obama in the discussion.

Nunn is considered one of the most respected Democratic voices on national security issues and, along with Bayh, is said to be on Obama'sshort list for vice president. Shortly after Obama concluded his remarks, the McCain campaign released a letter signed by 10 retiredadmirals and generals touting the senator from Arizona's national security credentials. "This country has learned the peril of treating

terrorists and their state sponsors as little more than a law enforcement problem," the letter said. "We are unanimous in our viewthat the failures of the past should not be repeated, and we believe that John McCain's long record of national service, and his

demonstrated judgment on matters of national security, make clear who can best defend this country abroad, and assure peace andprosperity at home." The retired military officials who signed the letter were Navy Adm. Ronald J. Hays, Navy Adm. James L. Holloway,

Navy Adm. Jerome L. Johnson, Marine Corps. Gen. P.X. Kelley, Army Gen. James J. Lindsay, Air Force Gen. John Michael Loh, NavyAdm. Leighton W. Smith, Army Gen. Carl Stiner, Coast Guard Vice Adm. Donald C. "Deese" Thompson and Coast Guard Vice Adm.Howard B. Thorsen (Mooney, 2008).

Abstract: NPR reported that Madeline Albright stated the following: I think that the big issues are still how to fight terrorism withoutcreating more terrorists, how to deal with thebroken nuclear non-proliferation system, how to restore the good name of democracy,how to deal with the negative aspects of globalization, the growing gap between the rich and the poor. And all those issues - energy,environment, food prices - they have not gone away. And then, as I said in my book, you have to expect the unexpected. So, there's - I'mso glad we have Barack Obama to deal with the issues because this is going to be a very hard presidency (NPR, 2008).

Date: November 15, 2008Source: The Sunday Times, Tom Baldwin, Michael EvansTitle/Headline:Barack Obama Is Warned To Beware Of A Huge Threat From Al-Qaeda

Abstract:Security officials fear a spectacular during the transition period.Barack Obama is being given ominous advice from leaders on bothsides of the Atlantic to brace himself for an early assault from terrorists. General Michael Hayden, director of the CIA, this week

acknowledged that there were dangers during a presidential transition when new officials were coming in and getting accustomed

to the challenges. But he added that no real or artificial spike in intercepted transmissions from terror suspects had been detected.President Bush has repeatedly described the acute vulnerability of the US during a transition. The Bush Administration has been defined

largely by the 9/11 attacks, which came within a year of his taking office. His aides have pointed to al-Qaedas first assault on the

World Trade Centre, which occurred little more than a month after Bill Clinton became President in 1993. There was an allegedattempt to bomb Glasgow airport in Gordon Browns first days in Downing Street and a London nightclub attack was narrowly thwarted.Lord West of Spithead, the Home Office Security Minister, spoke recently of a huge threat, saying: There is another great plotbuilding up again and we are monitoring this. Intelligence chiefs on both sides of the Atlantic have indicated that such warnings refermore to a general sense of foreboding than fear of an imminent or specific plan. Referring to the attacks in 1993 and 2001, General

Hayden told a Washington think-tank on Thursday night: For some people two data points create a trend line. For others, there

may be more hesitation to call it that. He said that the chief danger comes from remote areas in Pakistan that border Afghanistan.

Today virtually every major terrorist threat that my agency is aware of has threads back to the tribal areas. Whether its

command and control, training, direction, money, capabilities, there is a connection to the Fata [Pakistans Federally AdministeredTribal Areas]. General Hayden said that al-Qaeda remained a determined, adaptive enemy operating from its safe haven in Pakistan.

He added: If there is a major attack on this country it will bear the fingerprints of al-Qaeda. He said that the border region

remained the base of al-Qaedas leadership, which had developed a more durable structure and a deep reserve of skilled

operatives. AlQaeda, operating from its safe haven in Pakistans tribal areas, remains the most clear and present danger to the

safety of the United States, General Hayden said. The hunt for al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden is very much at the top of

CIAs priority list, he added. Because of his iconic stature, his death or capture clearly would have a significant impact on theconfidence of his followers. The CIA chief also suggested that the terror group was seeking to recruit Western-looking operatives whowould not cause attention if they were standing in airport screening queues. Hours after he spoke, a suspected US missile attack killed 12

people in Pakistan, including five foreigners. Such strikes are hugely controversial, with Islamabad claiming that they fuel anti-Americanextremist groups. But Mr Obama has been clear that he wants to pursue al-Qaeda aggressively across the Afghan border. In Britain,

security officials say that there is genuine concern that alQaeda will attempt a spectacular in the transition period, but suggest


3/27

that it may be aimed more at Mr Bush than Mr Obama. As far as we know there is nothing from the intelligence world to indicatethat anything has changed dramatically in recent months to put us on alert for an attack at the moment, a source said. The present threatlevel is severe, which is the second-highest alert status. But a senior counterterrorism official suggested last month that this should be

regarded as the severe end of severe. This would point to Britain facing a terrorist threat nearly as high as the period in the summer of2005 when terrorists killed 52 people on Londons transport network on July 7 and attempted a similar attack on July 21. Britain and theUS are sharing all intelligence on suspected terrorist activity because of the high risk of a plot involving transatlantic flights. Al-Qaeda isunderstood still to be obsessed with mounting an attack using passenger airliners. There have also been warnings of al-Qaeda interest in

developing a chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear (CBRN) device. The US has anti-CBRN units on constant patrol in main

cities. Al-Qaeda is known to be experimenting with biological agents, particularly anthrax, which they acquire from dead animals

and then create cultures. The key man involved in these experiments is Abou Kabbah al-Masri, who was engaged in the biologicaltrials including tests on rabbits that were uncovered in Afghanistan when the Taleban were overrun after the US invasion in 2001.James Lewis, a security expert with the Centre of Strategic and International Studies in Washington, said that al-Qaeda may wish to

provoke a reaction from the next US Administration designed to show the rest of the world that America is still the evil crusader. Lastmonth Joe Biden, the Vice-President-elect, told campaign donors: Watch, were going to have an international crisis, a generated

crisis, to test the mettle [of Mr Obama]. Mr Lewis said that many Muslims were intrigued by Mr Obamas arrival in the White

House and there may be political downsides in attacking America too early. It is hard to fathom the level of sophistication of

their operatives and whether the chatter we intercept is dissent or intent. If they are gong to do something, they may wait until

after the inauguration. At present there are policemen standing on policemen at possible targets. That wont be the case threemonths into the new administration (Baldwin & Evans).

Date: January 11, 2009Source: ReutersTitle/Headline:Pakistan And Its Nuclear Weapons Loom Large Over Obama Administration

Abstract:Pakistan and its nuclear weapons are back in the centre of the U.S. foreign policy frame as a steady stream of reportsfrom think tanks and newspapers build the case for President-elect Barack Obama to recognise and act urgently with regard to thepotential threat from the troubled state. The New York Times Magazine in an extensive article headlined Obamas Worst Pakistan

Nighmare says the biggest fear is not Islamist militants taking control of the border regions. Its what happens if the countrys nucleararsenal falls into the wrong hands. And it then takes a trip to the Chaklala garrison where the headquarters of Strategic Plans Division,the branch of the Pakistani government charged with protecting its growing arsenal of nuclear weapons, are located and led by KhalidKidwai, a former army general. In the second nuclear age, what happens or fails to happen in Kidwais modest compound may

prove far more likely to save or lose an American city than the billions of dollars the United States spends each year maintaining a

nuclear arsenal that will almost certainly never be used, or the thousands of lives and hundreds of billions of dollars we have spent

in Iraq and Afghanistan to close down sanctuaries for terrorists,writes David E. Sanger, author of a forthcoming book: TheInheritance: The World Obama Confronts and the Challenges to American Power. The article quotes a Bush administration official as

saying there were two ways Pakistans weapons could fall into the wrong hands. One was when the Pakistani military was moving

its tactical weapons closer to the frontlines when it could be much more vulnerable to seizure by militants. A time of heightenedtensions with India, as is the situation now following the attacks in Mumbai, would be a top reason for Pakistan to begin moving itsweapons. Could that be one of the objectives of the Mumbai attacks, the New York Times asks. A second route for al Qaeda would be toinfiltrate Pakistans nuclear labs, put in sleeper cells and then squirrel away the material. It is relatively easy to teach Kidwais security

personnel how to lock down warheads and store them separately from trigger devices and missiles, training that the United States

has conducted, largely in secret, at a cost ofalmost $100 million.It is a lot harder for the Americans to keep track ofnuclearmaterial being produced inside laboratories, where it is easier for the Pakistanis to underreport how much nuclear material hasbeen produced, how much is in storage or how much might be stuck in the pipesduring the laborious enrichment process. And itwould be nearly impossible to stop engineers from walking out the door with the knowledge of how to produce fuel and bomb designs. Lastmonth, the blue-ribbon Commission on Prevention of Weapons of Mass Destruction Proliferation and Terrorism submitted its report, withits members making clear that for sheer scariness nothing could compete with what they heard in a series of top-level intelligence about therisk of Pakistans nuclear technology going awry. Were one to map terrorism and weapons of mass destruction today, all roads

would intersect in Pakistan. It has nuclear weapons and a history of unstable governments, and parts of its territory are currently asafe haven for al Qaeda and other terrorists, the commission said. It added that it had singled out Pakistan because it believed itconstituted a serious challenge to Americas short-term and medium-term security. Pakistan is an ally, but there is a grave danger itcould also be an unwitting source of a terrorist attack on the United Statespossibly with weapons of mass destruction, it said,adding it must top the list of priorities for the next President and Congress. Does this steady drumbeat of reports in the days leading up to

Obamas inauguration foreshadow an even more activist, muscular policy toward Pakistan? Reading through these reports - there isanother by Shuja Nawaz urging the new administration to declare Pakistans Federally Administered Tribal Areas as part ofAmericas Afghan war theatre because it is the most dangerous spot on earth - you would think the India-Pakistan tensions of the pastmonth are a sideshow. For all of New Delhis fulminations against Pakistan and the sense of outrage over the Mumbai attacks, the pressureit can bring to bear on its troubled neighbour is limited compared with Americas. But is this all justified or is there a bit of hype here? The

New York Times article quotes Kidwai, the former general with the keys to the nuclear arsenal, as saying that its security systems werefoolproof. Please grant to Pakistan that if we can make nuclear weapons, we canalso make them safe, he says. And as he pointsout, should the United States really be giving lectures on nuclear safety when the U.S. Air Force lost track of some of its own weaponsin 2007 for 36 hours, flying them around unguarded to air bases and leaving them by the side of the tarmac? Or how can you be sosure about U.S. intelligence establishment reports about Pakistans arsenal being at risk, when it was so wrong about Iraqs nuclearweapons? (Reuters, 2009).

Abstract:President Barrack Obama stated Just one nuclear weapon exploded in a city -- be it New York or Moscow; Tokyo orBeijing; London or Paris -- could kill hundreds of thousands of people. And it would badly destabilize our security, our economies, andour very way of life.We harbor no illusions about the difficulty of bringing about a world without nuclear weapons. We knowthere are plenty of cynics, and that there will be setbacks to prove their pointToday, the Security Council endorsed a global effort tolock down all vulnerable nuclear materials within four years. The United States will host a summit in April of 2010 to advance this

goal and help all nations achieve it. And it calls for stronger safeguards to reduce the likelihood that peaceful nuclear weapons programscan be diverted to a weapons program (NNSA, 2010).

Date: October 28, 2009Source: Infowars, J. T. CoyoteTitle/Headline:Has President Obama, the Constitutional Lawyer, Committed Open Treason?

Abstract:When the president of the United States, Barack H. Obama accepted rotating status as chairman of the United NationsSecurity Council, he committed high treason not only a direct violation of article 1 section 9 clause 8 of the Constitution for the

United States of America, which states emphatically: No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States; and no person

holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall without consent of Congress accept of any present, emolument, office, or title,of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State. But this act by the President also has violated the 13th article of

amendment that was duly ratified by March of 1819, but with secrecy and by active subterfuge, it was replaced by Lincolns 14thamendment right after the Civil War. This duly ratified original 13th amendment states the following: If any citizen of the United States

shall accept, claim, receive, or retain any title of nobility or honour, or shall without the consent of Congress, accept and retain anypresent, pension, office, or emolument of any kind whatever, from any emperor, king, prince, or foreign power, such person shall

cease to be a citizen of the United States, and shall be incapable of holding any office of trust or profit under them, or either of

them. Article 1 section 9 describes what shall not be allowed, but, it puts forth no punishment for such actions on the part of an electedgovernment official the original 13th amendment however, which was proposed in 1810 and some would say was a large part o f thereason for the War of 1812, not only states that an elected government official cannot accept this kind of gratuity or office, but also states,if so done, the official would lose all possibility of office present and future, as well as citizenship, and if the circumstances are graveenough could be tried for treason and ultimately hung. In either case I do not recall there having been a bill, resolution, or memorial, putforth by Congress, granting this president its permission for accepting the position of chairman of the Security Council of the United

Nations Without this permission and open discussion about it, prior to the granting of the permission President Barack H.Obama is in violation of article 1 section 9 clause 8 of the Constitution for the United States of America at the very least. Thecreation of the United Nations at the Presidio in San Francisco in 1945, was done by treaty power. It is not part of the United States in

any way other than by treaty in the form of an international Peace treaty. The Constitution states that treaties are consideredpart of Constitutional law when they are enacted by an act of Congress and signed by the president. They are not etched in stonehowever, and as with all treaties, as was addressed in 1803 by the Supreme Court in the landmark Marbury vs Madison, which states that a

law, (by law I mean act of Congress, and no treaty can become law without an Act of Congress), cannot void the Constitution. TheConstitution however can void any law including treaties, if that law is repugnant to the Constitution. When Obama took the

position of Chairman of the UN Security Council he violated Article 1 Section 9 Clause 8 by accepting leadership in anorganization that is clearly at odds with the Constitution for the United States of America (Coyote, 2009).

Title/Headline:Prepare For Rebellion, Obama Orders US-Canadian Troops

Abstract:Kremlin position papers presented to Prime Minister Putin today on his upcoming meeting with NATO SecretaryGeneral Anders Fogh Rasmussen state that the European-US military alliance has authorized an emergency request from

President Obama to utilize American and Canadian NATO troops to put down what is expected to be a rebellion after the

expected January, 2010 declaration of bankruptcy by the State of California. According to these reports, Obamas fears ofrebellion are due to the economic health of California (the United States largest State) after the 3rd largest US State, New York,declared a fiscal emergency and refused to release to its cities and townsover $750 Million due them this past week with the Governor of

New York, David Paterson, declaring I cant say this enough: The state has run out of money. New Yorks fiscal crisis, however, pales incomparison to Californias, where new economic data points to its expected 5-year budget deficit reaching the staggering amount ofover$100 Billion which Russian economists warn will result in budget cuts so steep as to create social chaos among this States 36 millioncitizens.

counterparts, with secondary reports stating that at least 1,000 tanks are massing their too. Russian Military Analysts are further

warning in this report that Obama has decided to implement the feared RAND Corporation (one of the most powerful research

arms of the US Military-Industrial-Homeland Security Complex) police state blueprint tilted Stability Police Force for the

United States: Justification and Creating U.S. Capabilities that has been modeled on the Nazi German secret police forces

organization Geheime Staatspolizei (Gestapo) meant to control and demoralize any opposition to the state. Even worse for theseAmerican people is the legalization process currently embedded in their new health care legislation which will see everyone of them

becoming virtual slaves of their government, and as warned about by the Fox News Service in their report titled Be Afraid, Be Very

Afraid of Obamas Latest Big Brother Plan and which says: Under the Democrats national health care scheme not only would

OPM be charged with overseeing and administering federal employees health care but they will have the added charge of

administering civilian federal health care as well. What does that mean? Basically, that Americans will be treated as civilservants. Are you starting to see the danger? The more government seeks to control our lives the more Orwellian it gets. This big

brother mentality that government knows best and that it is their mission to provide cradle to grave care of its citizens will doomAmerica as we know it. Under such a system the individual becomes meaningless and the state becomes the entity upon which we

are all forced to rely. Unfortunately, with or without these Americans succumbing to the loss of their Nation through the

establishment of a police state, their fate appears to have already been sealed as new reports are showing that by their continued

saving they are failing to provide China with the money needed through the buying of goods to purchase US bonds to keep them

afloat, and which has led to the incredible circumstance of the United States, through its Federal Reserve and other financialentities, becoming the largest buyers of their own debt. Not being seen in all of these dire events by the American people is that their

present collapse as an independent Nation was engineered by their own President Obama, who working in concert with the previousPresident, George Bush, sold them out to Wall Streetby packing his administration with banking insiders have, literally, pillaged the entireeconomic future of the United States for the benefit of their elite classes and, incredibly, supported these once collapsing banks with over$352 Billion in drug money.And so grave has it become for ordinary Americans that new reports are now showing that in what was

once the most powerful Nation on Earth, there now exists an epidemic of child hunger and one their fastest growing cities is a

tent-town of newly homeless named Obamaville in a stark reminder of the thousands of shanty towns namedHoovervilles built

during the Great Depression. For those American people believing their propaganda media reports that a recovery is underway theycouldnt be more mistaken, asnewly released data shows that of the millions of jobs lost these past 2 years almost all of them are

permanent. And, as always, these people are being kept from knowing the full and brutal truth of their economic collapse with reports alsoshowing that the latest unemployment figures released by the US government were faked. But to the greatest fears of these Americans

should be the newly released information showing that US scientists have perfected, for the first time in history, a new drugless

technique to wipe from these peoples minds their very own memories, and as we can read:In a scientific experiment that bringsto mind the memory-erasing escapade in the 2004 film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, scientists have blocked fearful

recollections in human participants, sans drugs. The results challenge the view that our long-term memories are fixed and resistant

to change.Russian Military Psychologists have long warned that the Wests longest term plan to control their soon to be

rebellious populations lie in memory altering techniques such as are being perfected in the United States and due to be deployed

through their mass media in radio programmes, television, and movie broadcasts outlets as these Nations past reliance on the

drugging of their citizens through mass fluoridation is becoming more and more ineffectual. Important to note too is that theeconomic collapse of the United States is just one of the catastrophic dangers they are facing, as this past week the giant plant geneticscompany Bayer admitted in a US Federal Court that it has been unable to control the spread of its genetically-engineered

organisms despite the best practices to stop widespread contamination and which may very well see the destruction of theAmericans ability to feed themselves as these monster plants reap their destruction on Nature. To all of these events, it is not inour knowing if the American people will awaken from their self induced slumber to arise, as they have many times throughout their history,to reclaim for themselves what is now rapidly being stolen from them. But, and if their present actions are a predictor to what they

may do in the future, one can only fear for them as they are marched in lockstep towards an abyss they only fail to see because theywont open their eyes (The European Union Times, 2009).

Giuliani's comments are similar to those of former White House Press Secretary Dana Perino and former Dick Cheney aide MaryMatalin, both of whom have said in recent weeks no terrorism attacks occurred under Bush. "We did not have a terrorist attack on ourcountry during President Bush's term," Perino told Fox News last November. In December, Mary Matalin - a former senior

adviser to Vice President Dick Cheney - made comments that seemed to place the 9/11 attacks under President Clinton's watch.

"We inherited a recession from President Clinton and we inherited the most tragic attack on our own soil in our nation's history,"Matalin a CNN analyst, told John King on CNN's "State of the Union" last month (Mooney, 2008).

When appointed, the Council will bereviewing such matters as involving the National Guard of the various States; homeland defense; civil support; synchronization andintegration of State and Federal military activities in the United States; and other matters of mutual interest pertaining to NationalGuard, homeland defense, and civil support activities. The bipartisan Council will be composed of Ten State Governors who will beselected by the President to serve two year terms. In selecting the Governors to the Council, the White House will solicit input fromGovernors and Governors associations.

Abstract:President Obama's first State of the Union address should be coming soon -- but exactly how soon is still anyone's guess.The speech has already sparked protests for potential scheduling conflicts with TV's most popular programs. The White House hasannounced that the president won't deliver the address on the same night as the premiere of "Lost," relieving the legions of fans ofthe popular ABC series, which is scheduled to debut Feb. 2. As of Tuesday, the White House still had not said when it will come, though

a senior congressional leadership aide told Fox News that Obama is planning to speak in the week after the Super Bowl, Feb. 7 .Obama apparently is trying to give congressional Democrats more time to finish negotiations on a final health care bill, so he can tout it inhis speech. The House passed its version in November and the Senate on Christmas Eve. But negotiators are struggling to find commonground between the versions, which differ in how to pay for the entitlement program, among other sticking issues (Clark, 2010).

Barrack Obama suspended the State of the Union speech till after Super Bowl, then changed his mind, and then changed his mind

yet again. In a turnabout never seen before by a sitting U.S. President, Obama was the latest in giving a State of the Union speech,

flip-flopping on the date more than once indicating that there was some internal discussion as to whether they would nuke the

Super Bowl in 2010 or 2011. Obama gave his speech on January 27, 2009, rather than after the February 7th

Abstract:The head of the FBI said the threat of a terrorist attack against the U.S. is becoming more worrisome with each passing

day.Robert Mueller, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, told the Senate Judiciary Committee that law enforcementagencies have disrupted several plots in the past year as terrorists remain determined to strike the United States.As theChristmas Day attempted bombing illustrates, the threats we face are becoming more diverse and more dangerous with each passi ng day,Mueller testified. We not only face threats from al-Qaeda, but also from self-directed groups not part of al-Qaedas formalstructure. The Obama administration admitted mistakes in failing to stop an alleged bomber before he boarded a Christmas Day flight toDetroit. Several congressional committees are probing security lapses in the Dec. 25 incident. Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, a 23- year-old

Nigerian, has been charged with trying to destroy Northwest Flight 253 and kill its 290 passengers as the plane approached Detroit. He haspleaded not guilty. We acknowledge that errors were made and that processes need to be improved, PatrickKennedy, a StateDepartment undersecretary, told the Judiciary Committee. At one point, a U.S. embassy employee misspelled the Abdulmutallabs name,helping him avoid detection. We slipped up, Kennedy said. The plot failed when the explosives he was carrying failed to detonate and

passengers and crew aboard the flight restrained him. A White House report released Jan. 7 said there was not a comprehensive or

functioning process for tracking terrorist threat reporting and actions taken that would hold agencies accountable for running

down leads. It can be tempting to forget that it is always easier to connect the dots in hindsight, said Senate Judiciary ChairmanPatrick Leahy, a Democrat from Vermont. It was not our intelligence agencies who first raised the alarm about the suspect who tried to

blow up the Northwest Airlines flight. It was the suspects own father, a Nigerian, who turned him in. Homeland Security Secretary JanetNapolitano is set to appear before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee today. The Senate ForeignRelations Committee, Commerce Committee and Select Committee on Intelligence are also scheduled to hear from administration officialsthis week. Mueller said the U.S. faces threats from homegrown terrorists who live in the communities they attack and train on

their own. He said law enforcement agencies have disrupted terrorist plots in Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota,

Colorado, Texas and elsewhere in the past year. We cannot discount the lone offender threat here at home -- the individual whomay take up arms and strike without notice, Mueller said (Woellert, 2010).

Abstract: A bipartisan, independent commission on stopping the spread of weapons of mass destruction says that the Obama

administration has failed in its first year in office to do enough to prevent a germ weapons attack on America or to respond quickly

and effectively should such an attack occur.In a 19-page report card being published Tuesday, the Commission on the Prevention

of Weapons of Mass Destruction, Proliferation and Terrorism, chaired by former Senators Bob Graham, a Democrat from Florida,and Jim Talent, a Missouri Republican,gives the new administration the grade of "F" for failing to take key steps the commissionoutlined just over a year ago in its initial report. Specifically, the commission concludes that the Obama administration, like the threeadministrations before it, has failed to pay consistent and urgent attention to increasing the nation's ability to respond quickly andeffectively to a germ attack that would inflict massive casualties on the nation. The commission repeated its warning that unless nations

acted decisively and urgently, it was more likely than not that a WMD will be used in a terrorist attack somewhere in the world bythe end of 2013, and that the terrorists' weapon of choice would be biological, rather than nuclear. The administration's delayedresponse to the H1N1 virus, the report concludes, demonstrated that the United States was "woefully behind in its ability to rapidly

produce rapidly vaccines and therapeutics, essential steps for adequately responding to a biological threat, whether natural or

man-made." Even with time to prepare, the report noted, the epidemic peaked "before most Americans had access to vaccine."And a bio-attack, it warned, would have no such warning. The administration's lack of urgency was also reflected in its lack of priorityon producing and distributing enough vaccines and other medical countermeasures for Americans, its reluctance to insist that hospitalshave enough surge capacity to treat people who would be infected in a bioterror attack, and the lack of a national plan to coordinate federal,state and local efforts following a bioterror strike, the document asserts. Ultimately, the commission chairman and vice chairman say,

the "lack of preparedness" and "consistent lack of action" reflect "a failure of the U.S. government to grasp the threat of

biological weapons." Unlike its effort to prevent a nuclear attack, the Obama administration has shown "no equal sense of urgency" aboutpreventing or responding to germ warfare that might cause comparable death and suffering, the commission concludes. The report assigns

17 grades that it says highlight the issues of greatest priority in protecting Americans from WMD. The commission gave the

administration a "D+" for its efforts to tighten oversight of high-containment labs in which experiments involving the deadliestpathogens are conducted. There were still far too many Federal, state, and local agencies regulating germs in sometimes conflicting ways,it states. The commission also gave Congress a failing grade for failing to consolidate the estimated 82 to 108 committees andsubcommittees that oversee some part of the Department of Homeland Security. "Virtually no progress has been made sinceconsolidation was first recommended by the 9/11 Commission in 2004," the report asserts. The Obama administration disputed thefindings of the report Tuesday, arguing that the president has accomplished a "great deal" in his first year in office. White House

spokesman Nick Shapiro cited a recently signed executive order establishing "federal capability to rapidly provide medicalcountermeasures to supplement state and local response in the event of a large-scale biological attack." He said Obama would launcha new initiative aimed at addressing potential "public health threats" during his State of the Union address Wednesday. The Graham/TalentWMD Commission, as it is known, is a legacy of the 9/11 Commission, which recommended its creation to examine WMD proliferationthreats in its own report. In December, 2008, the WMD commission concluded in its final report that American national securityfaced ever growing threats from unconventional weapons, and from biological weapons in particular.Its report, "World at Risk,"

unanimously concluded that bioterrorism was the most likely WMD threat the nation confronted given the exponential growth ofbiological technology and the stated desire ofAl Qaeda and other terrorist groups to acquire such weapons. It called upon theadministration to take 13 steps to reduce America's vulnerability to such an attack. The new report card assesses the progress that theObama administration has made in implementing its recommendations. The report is not uniformly negative. It gives the

Administration high marks -- an "A" -- for the reviews it has conducted into how best to store and secure dangerous pathogens,

and two "A-minus" grades for appointing a WMD coordinator and restructuring how the White House oversees homeland

security issues. But it warns that such steps are not commensurate with the threat the nation faces from terrorist groups searching forunconventional weapons in asymmetrical warfare. Robert Kadlec, President Bush's former special adviser on bio-defense policy,

declined to comment on the commission's failing grade in the area in which he worked, saying there was still "ample opportunity to

provide more focus and resources" for bio-preparedness in the administration's remaining three years. "This is a hard problem

which deserves high priority," he said. Two defenders of the administration's policies, both of whom asked not to be identified by namebecause they were speaking without authorization, said that the Obama White House gave bio-defense and countering nuclear

proliferation high priority.One official said that Obama's second presidential security directive -- the first being the reorganizationof the White House national security apparatus -- mapped out a national strategy to defend the nation against biological attacks.He also predicted that the administration would seek increases in its new budget for bio-defense and global surveillance programs. Having

been extended for one more year of work in 2009, the 9-member WMD Commission is disbanding after issuing this final report card. Butstaff members said that its chairman and vice-chairman intend to form a non-profit organization to continue pressing the

government to do more to counter WMD threats (Miller, 2010).

Jeb Bush's presence wasunexpected -- the White House hadn't said anything about him being invited. It's all very... bipartisan. The Bushes were at the White Housefor just over a half-hour, emerging in a driving snow that over the next few hours will blanket the capital with several inches of fluff."Good meeting, good meeting," the elder Bush, 85 and walking with a cane, said in response to a question called out by a reporter. Bushthe elder hosted Obama at Texas A&M a few months back, at an event celebrating community service/volunteerism and marking the 20thanniversary of his Points of Light project (Gillman, 2010).

Only 8 days prior to the 2010 Super Bowl, a strange and mysterious meeting occurred at the Oval office. What exactly the Bush &

Co. said to Obama is purely speculative, but it most likely had to do with the cancelation of the nuclear Super Bowl attack.

Abstract:I have embraced the vision of John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan through a strategy that reverses the spread of[nuclear] weapons, and seeks a world without them,President Barack Obama claimed during his first State of the Union speech. Toreduce our stockpiles and launchers, while ensuring our deterrent, the United States and Russia are completing negotiations on the farthest-reaching arms control treaty in nearly two decades. Yet, in the budget the Obama White House will send to Congress on Monday, the

administration proposes a 10 percent spending increase on the nations nuclear weapons budget, bringing the total to roughly $7

billion, according to McClatchy Newspapers. In a Friday op-ed published by The Wall Street Journal, Vice President Joseph Bidenclaimed that the increase is due in large part to the decay in nuclear stockades over the last decade, due mainly to neglect by the Bushadministration. For as long as nuclear weapons are required to defend our country and our allies, we will maintain a safe, secureand effective nuclear arsenal, he wrote. The budget we will submit to Congress on Monday both reverses this decline and enables

us to implement the presidents nuclear-security agenda. These goals are intertwined. The increased funding would also be used tomodernize old facilities and retain the necessary staff to track nonproliferation issues and ensure weapons reduction agreements are upheld,McClatchy added. Our budget request is just one of several closely related and equally important initiatives giving life to thepresidents Prague agenda,Biden explained. Others include completing the New START agreement with Russia, releasing the NuclearPosture Review on March 1, holding the Nuclear Security Summit in April, and pursuing ratification and entry into force of theComprehensive Test Ban Treaty. Fascinating point: it took a Democratic president and a Democatic Congress to modernize thestockpile, The Atlantics Marc Ambinder noted.The Bush administrations efforts in this regard failed. It remains to be seen howand whether the administration ties this achievement into a larger narrative about nonproliferation and national security (Webster,2010).

Abstract:Republicans say they see weakness in PresidentBarack Obamasapproach to fighting terrorism -- and a winning issue forthemselves in the November congressional elections. While Republicans have criticized Obamas national-security policies since hetook office, the intensity has picked up in recent weeks. They have focused on the administrations handling of the attempted Christmas

bombing of a Northwest Airlines flight and the governments plans to try terrorism suspects in civilian courts. The top Republican on theSenate Judiciary Committee, Jeff Sessions of Alabama, issued at least 15 statements assailing Obamas policies for combatingterrorism. Representative Lamar Smith of Texas, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, said in an interview. Americanswill vote for people who are strong on protecting American lives. Obama administration officials in recent days have sought to bluntthe Republicans attacks by appearing on television talk shows and briefing reporters. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder sent letters tolawmakers today defending the administrations handling of the attempted Christmas day bombing. Obama devoted part of his Jan.27 State of the Union speech to showing he is focused on terrorist threats. Lets put aside the schoolyard taunts about who s tough,Obama said. The administration has been filling unacceptable gaps uncovered by the failed Christmas attack with better airlinesecurity, he said, adding that hundreds of Al Qaeda fighters have been killed or captured in the last year. Former Vice President Dick

Its a good potential issue to use in our fall campaigns, said Newhouse. Republicans have focused on the administrationshandling ofUmar Farouk Abdulmutallab, accused of carrying explosives on the Dec. 25 Detroit-bound flight. Sessions and 21 otherRepublican senators sent a letterto Obama saying Abdulmutallab shouldnt be tried in civilian court. They criticized authorities for readinghim his rights and pursuing a criminal case, saying it may have resulted in a missed opportunity to collect timely intelligence. Obamasaid there was a systemic failure that allowed a suspect linked to an Al Qaeda group to board the plane. Still, the administrationsaid theres no indication any additional information would have been extracted in the military-justice system. The administration has ablind spot when it comes to prosecuting the war on terror, said Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Senate Republican leader, at aspeech in Washington today. The attempted plane bombing was the most egregious example, but it was no isolated case. Ken Gude,

associate directorof the international rights and responsibility program at the Center for American Progress, cited a fundraising letter sentby Representative Pete Hoekstra of Michigan, the top Republican on the intelligence committee. It described the Obama administrationas weak-kneed liberals who have recently tried to bring Guantanamo Bay terrorists right here to Michigan! The administrationneeds to do more to sell its record to the public, Gude said (Blum, 2010).

Abstract: President Barack Obama's top counterterrorism adviser lashed out at U.S. lawmakers, accusing them of using national

security issues as a "political football" for their own gains. Republicans have accused the Obama administration of making mistakes inthe handling of the arrest of Nigerian Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 23, who is accused of trying to blow up a Detroit-bound plan onChristmas Day. "Quite frankly I'm tiring of politicians using national security issues such as terrorism as political football. They'regoing out there, they're unknowing of the facts, and they're making charges and allegations that are not anchored in reality," John Brennantold NBC's "Meet the Press." By charging Abdulmutallab in a criminal court and giving him legal rights, Republicans have argued

that it prevented the intelligence community from obtaining information from him on al Qaeda and possible future U.S. terroristattacks. Brennan revealed that he briefed Republican lawmakers, including Senator Christopher Bond, the top Republican on the Senateintelligence committee, soon after the arrest on the handling of the suspect and they did not raise any concerns. "They were told about thefact of that cooperation as well as some information he was sharing," Brennan said. "None of those individuals raised any concerns withme at that point. They didn't say, is he going into military custody? Is he going to be Mirandized?" In a statement, Bond said ifBrennan had told him of plans to read the suspect his legal rights, commonly called Miranda rights in the United States, he would have toldhim it was a mistake. "The truth is that the administration did not even consult our intelligence chiefs ... so it's absurd to try toblame congressional leaders for this dangerous decision that gave terrorists a five-week head-start to cover their tracks," Bond said.Brennan said he would not compromise investigations by revealing sensitive intelligence information. "There have been instances whereinformation is shared with the Hill and we see it in the paper the next day," Brennan said, adding that FBI officials had

appropriately handled the arrest. "Those counterterrorism professionals deserve the support of our Congress and, rather than

second-guessing what they are doing on the ground," he said. The office of House Republican Leader John Boehner said in a statementthat Brennan made a short phone call to the lawmaker on Christmas Day but did not say the suspect would be read his Miranda rights .

"The courtesy call certainly does not remotely qualify as a 'briefing,'" Boehner's office said, adding that Brennan gave "nosubstantive information" on the arrest (Reuters, 2010).

Abstract:Former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin has sharply criticized US President Barack Obama over hisnational security policies. Speaking at a national convention of the "Tea Party" movement Saturday night, Palin slammed the first AfricanAmerican president of the US for his handling of the so-called war on terror. She said that the Obama administration does not seem tounderstand the war on terror in the way it handled the recent attempt to bomb an airliner on Christmas Day. Targeting theDemocratic president, Palin boasted that it is time America had a commander in chief, not a professor at a lectern. Observers havedescribed Palin as political novice who is gravely illiterate in international politics but very good at reading pre-rehearsed speeches, filledwith negative rhetoric, aimed at mocking the political opposition. On economic recession, the Republican John McCain's running mate inthe 2008 presidential election described Obama's proposed 2011 budget as 'immoral' for increasing the national debt, reiterating that thenation is drowning in debt. The convention in Nashville brought together hundreds of activists from the Tea Party group, which hopes to

make a splash in the 2010 congressional elections and beyond. All 435 seats of the House of Representatives and more than a third of the100 Senate seats are up for grabs next November. Democrats currently hold the majority in both houses. The movement takes its namefrom the historic protest against British taxation, the Boston Tea Party, one of the triggers of the American Revolution against the Britishcolonial rule. "This is the movement and America is ready for another revolution and you are a part of this," boasted Palin. McCainand Palin lost heavily to Obama in the 2008 presidential election, leaving the Grand Old Party floundering and leaderless. Palin was

blamed by many Republicans for the landslide defeat of the Republican ticket due to her ignorance of international and current affairs.Amid speculations that Palin might make a bid for presidency in 2012, she brushed aside her own political ambitions saying that everyonehad a role to play. "You don't need a proclaimed leader as if we are all a bunch of sheep and looking for a leader to progress thismovement," she said. Recent reports indicate that Palin received advice from her husband, a fisherman, in governing the State of Alaska(Press TV, 2010).

Abstract:Vice President Joe Biden made his latest eyebrow-furrowing prediction declaring confidently that another Sept. 11-sizeterror attack is "unlikely" in the U.S., despite signs that Al Qaeda and other terrorist groups are actively planning moreattacks. Top intelligence officials told congressional lawmakers early this month that the terror network can be expected to try anotherattack in the next three to six months. But Biden, interviewed on CNN, downplayed the risk. "Look, let me put it this way. The idea ofthere being a massive attack in the United States like 9/11 is unlikely, in my view," the vice president said. "What's happening,

particularly with Al Qaeda and the Arabian Peninsula, they have decided to move in the direction of much more small-bore butdevastatingly frightening attacks," he said on Wednesday. "The concern relates to somebody like a shoe bomber or the underpantsbomber, the Christmas attack or someone just strapping a backpack on them with explosives that are indigenous" (Fox News,2010).

Jonathan Karl: Is he right?

Dick Cheney: I don't think so. And I would point to a study that was released just within the last week or two up at the Kennedy School atHarvard by a gentleman -- Mowatt-Larssen's his name, I believe. He was CIA for 23 years, director of intelligence at the EnergyDepartment for a long time, that looks at this whole question of weapons of mass destruction and Al Qaida and comes to theconclusion that there's a very high threat that Al Qaida is trying very hard to acquire a weapon of mass destruction and, ifthey're successful in acquiring it, that they will use it. I think he's right. I think, in fact, the situation with respect to Al Qaidato say that, you know, that was a big attack we had on 9/11, but it's not likely again, I just think that's dead wrong. I think the

biggest strategic threat the United States faces today is the possibility of another 9/11 with a nuclear weapon or a biological

agent of some kind, and I think Al Qaida is out there even as we meet trying to figure out how to do that.

Jonathan Karl: And do you think that the Obama administration is taking enough serious steps to prevent that?

Dick Cheney:I think they need to do everything they can to prevent it. And if the mindset is it's not likely, then it's difficult to mobilizethe resources and get people to give it the kind of priority that it deserves (Madrak, 2010).

Title/Headline: The Dangers Of Nuclear War: U.S.-Russian Nuke Deal No Cure For Real Threat

Abstract:After nearly a year's negotiations, the U.S. and Russian governments finally reached an agree-ment on further reductionand limitation of nuclear weapon arms. The agreement will be signed on April 8, limiting the total number of warheads to less than

1,550. Overall, it is good for world peace and stability as well as the prevention of nuclear proliferation, but we shouldn't be over-optimistic about the treaty. The motivations behind the treaty are clear. Russia is opposed to the U.S. missile defense system and its

deployment in Eastern Europe. The U.S. continues to expand the scope of the missile defense system, which constitutes a real threatto Russia in Eastern Europe. With 95 percent of the world's total nuclear warheads, the U.S. and Russia are the world's two largest

nuclear powers. Russia has more than 14,000 missiles and the U.S. has more than 9,000. This remains one of the few areas wherethe former U.S.'s national strength is as great as ever, so the U.S. is active in working toward compromise in this field. Yet the treatyhas its problems. In the existing agreements, the number of nuclear warheads was limited to between 1,500 and 2,200. This new agreementitself has no new breakthroughs and has not met the expectations of the international community. Half a year ago, the limit of 1,500 was

proposed, but in the end, it became 1,550, no big breakthrough at all. The most fundamental problem is that the provisions do not

eliminate nuclear weapons but instead change their level of readiness. Nuclear weapons have three states of readiness: fully

equipped and ready to be fired, readied but with the head and body separated, and finally, in storage conditions with the warheadremoved. This treaty reduces the number of fully equipped nuclear weapons to less than 1,550, but the excess missiles will not bedestroyed, only moved to a different state of readiness. They could be activated and re-weaponized in only a short span of time.Despite the agreement, the U.S. also continues to work on developing new nuclear weapons itself. While some are being moved fromthe frontlines, lighter, more accurate weapons are being developed, as well as so-called bunker-busters designed to penetrate deeply into theEarth. The U.S.-Russian agreement only limits bilateral development, but the real concern is the spread of nuclear weaponsworldwide. The U.S. is planning to hold a nuclear safety summit on April 13 where the core issue is the nuclear non-proliferation. Once

nuclear technology spreads, and especially if terrorist organizations get their hands on nuclear materials, the consequences areunpredictable, and it is in every country's interests to prevent this. U.S. standards on nuclear proliferation are also inconsistent. It

gives tacit approval to Israel's nuclear weapons program, and makes no effort to discourage Japan from stockpiling raw materials

that could, in theory, produce thousands of nuclear weapons . In contrast, the U.S. has been particularly sensitive to Iran and NorthKorea. Iran has not tested nuclear weapons, but claims to developing civilian nuclear facilities. However, the U.S. has been stronglyworking for sanctions against it as a consequence and even considering military actions. Out of political considerations, the U.S. hasadopted two completely different standards on the use of nuclear technology by various nations. To make a convincing case for non-proliferation, the U.S. should apply the same standards to every country (Guoan, 2010).

Abstract:Rewriting America's nuclear strategy, the White House announced a fundamental shift that calls the spread of atomicweapons to rogue states or terrorists a worse threat than the nuclear Armageddon feared during the Cold War. The Obamaadministration is suddenly moving on multiple fronts with a goal of limiting the threat of a catastrophic international conflict, although it'snot yet clear how far and how fast the rest of the world is ready to follow. In releasing the results of an in-depth nuclear strategy review,President Barack Obama said his administration would narrow the circumstances in which the U.S. might launch a nuclear strike,

that it would forgo the development of new nuclear warheads and would seek even deeper reductions in American and Russianarsenals. His defense secretary, Robert Gates, said the focus would now be on terror groups such as al-Qaida as well as North Korea'snuclear buildup and Iran's nuclear ambitions. "For the first time, preventing nuclear proliferation and nuclear terrorism is now at thetop of America's nuclear agenda," Obama said, distancing his administration from the decades-long U.S. focus on arms competition with

Russia and on the threat posed by nuclear missiles on hair-trigger alert. " The greatest threat to U.S. and global security is no longer anuclear exchange between nations, but nuclear terrorism by violent extremists and nuclear proliferation to an increasing numberof states," he said, spelling out the core theme of the new strategy. Obama's announcement set the stage for his trip to Prague Thursday tosign a new arms reduction agreement with Russia. And it precedes a gathering in Washington next Monday of government leaders

from more than 40 countries to discuss improving safeguards against terrorists acquiring nuclear bombs.In May, the White Housewill once again help lead the call for disarmament at the United Nations in New York during an international conference on

strengthening the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Congressional Democrats hailed Tuesday's announcement, but some Republicanssaid it could weaken the nation's defense. Rep. Buck McKeon of California , the top Republican on the House Armed Services Committee,said the policy change could carry "clear consequences" for security and he was troubled by "some of the language and perceived signalsimbedded" in the policy.Two leading Senate voices on nuclear strategy, Arizona Republicans John McCain and Jon Kyl, criticizedthe Obama policy's restrictions on using nuclear arms to retaliate against a chemical or biological attack. "The Obama

Administration must clarify that we will take no option off the table to deter attacks against the American people and our allies,"the senators said in a joint statement. From the start of his term in office, Obama has put halting the spread of atomic arms near the top of
