Is ‘Nuclear Zero’ Right for America?

In the past, Republican and Democratic administrations have maintained a delicate balance between parallel goals of modernizing nuclear programs for deterrence and pursuing nuclear arms reductions. Recently, the Obama Administration has made modernization for deterrence subordinate to its top foreign policy objective of complete nuclear disarmament, termed “nuclear zero.” While a nuclear arms-free world is a desirable bipartisan goal, it would be folly to pursue that ideal at all costs. The rapid succession of two world wars during the first half of the 20th Century, and the absence of a third world war during the subsequent nuclear era, dramatically demonstrates the deterrent value of nuclear weapons. Moreover, the percentage of the world’s population lost to war each year has dropped dramatically since the presence of nuclear deterrence. Following World War II, the heroic statesman,

Winston Churchill, warned America, “Be careful above all things not to let go of the atomic weapon until you are sure, and more than sure, that other means of preserving peace are in your hands.” The current administration’s new nuclear policy is troubling because “nuclear zero” cannot be achieved unilaterally, or even bilaterally. Rather, it will require many countries to make the strategic decision that nuclear weapons are unnecessary for their own security. This is to say nothing of the desire of our enemies to develop or otherwise gain possession of nuclear arms technology. Until commitments with accompanying enforcement mechanisms have been secured with all applicable nations, we would be wise to maintain our traditional nuclear balance.

In the next few months, President Obama will be putting forward several proposals, including a new nuclear reduction treaty with Russia for ratification by the Senate, which will drastically change our nuclear posture. These proposals should be examined very carefully by New Hampshire’s congressional delegation. To disarm America of its most potent deterrent in a dangerous world runs counter to our security interests and demonstrates no appreciation of Churchill’s warning.

a challenge like no other. My husband, Brian Bishop, is training to complete his first Boston Marathon on April 19 for the Boston Ronald McDonald House. To some, this may sound crazy, but to us, the finish line of this race holds so much promise.

years ago at the young age of 28, which was a complete surprise to everyone. Brian has drastically changed his life by losing 128 pounds and carrying out a daily exercise regimen that consists of biking, swimming, running, and weight training. Brian regularly competes in road races and triathlons, as well as a charity bike ride from Boston to Vermont, totaling 146 miles for the Angel Cancer Fund. Brian is running this race in honor of his wife, Kara, who has been battling thyroid cancer. The Boston Ronald McDonald House is a “home-away-from-home” for families of children under the age of 21, at Children’s Hospital, Dana- Farber Cancer Institute’s Jimmy Fund Clinic, and other area hospitals. Families live at the Ronald McDonald House while their children are inpatients, undergoing surgery, and bone marrow transplant patients. Families also stay at the house while their children receive outpatient treatment such as radiation therapy and many types of chemotherapy.

Our commitment is to raise $3,000 by May 15,

Litchfield Historical Society Offers Public Service to Pet Owners

For the past 20-plus years, the Litchfield Historical Society has sponsored a Rabies Clinic, providing pet owners with the opportunity to get their dogs and cats vaccinated at a very modest cost. This year, the clinic is being held at the Fur and Feathers grooming and day care establishment on Route 102 in Litchfield from 10:00 am to noon. The building is to the right of the Little Lobster Boat restaurant. All dogs must be registered by April 30 and

Terry Briand, Litchfield Town Clerk, will be present to register any Litchfield dogs. Pet owners from other communities are welcome to take advantage of the Rabies Clinic, but will need to register their dogs in their home town. The clinic will take place rain or shine. We look forward to seeing many dogs and cats. It’s a reunion for many of us with proud pet owners and beautiful pets.
