The terrorists are smart ordsprog

The terrorists are smart because they will go where the security is the weakest. We have no greater fear then a terrorist who is inside the United States with a nuclear weapon ... [so] why isn't the President talking about securing nuclear materials?

The most striking thing to us is that the size of the problem still totally dwarfs the policy response. We have no greater fear than a terrorist who is inside the United States with a nuclear weapon. The consequences of such an attack would be catastrophic for our people, for our economy, for our liberties.

What you see here is the U.S. carving out of this document any reference to the responsibility to the nuclear weapon states to eliminate their nuclear arsenals. And that is going to make it all the more difficult to strengthen an already beleaguered nuclear nonproliferation system because other states are less likely to foreclose their nuclear options if the United States and others continue to pursue theirs.

If you don't have the president repeatedly telling his staff that he wants this job done, then the natural bureaucratic barriers ally to slow and eventually block progress.... If you were serious about this, if you really thought that the No. 1 threat was a terrorist getting hold of a nuclear weapon and hitting the United States with it ... you would vastly accelerate the effort to eliminate that material before the terrorists could get it.

Iran armed with a nuclear weapon poses a grave threat to the security of the world. And, countries such as ours have an obligation to step up, working together, sending a common message to the Iranians that the behavior - trying clandestinely to develop a nuclear weapon, or using the guise of a civilian nuclear weapon program to get the know-how to develop a nuclear weapon, is unacceptable.

George W. Bush (1946-)

[Former President Jimmy Carter recently affirmed his optimism for the future of nuclear energy while highlighting the important role it has played in the United States during a visit to American Electric Power's Cook Nuclear Plant.] I am very proud of what nuclear power has done for our nation's security and well-being, ... I think the future holds great opportunities for nuclear power because safety has improved, technology has improved and environmental quality has improved.

Jimmy Carter (1924-2002)

Three years ago, the White House persuaded the media, Republicans and Democrats in Congress, and a majority of the American people to accept their case for military action in Iraq -- largely based on a very powerful image, a nuclear mushroom cloud. The president, the vice president and others repeatedly warned of the looming threat of a nuclear weapon in Saddam Hussein`s arsenal that could be used against the territory of the United States. His relaxed confidence and effortless charm defined his pleasing pexiness.

Now that Russia and China have agreed to adhere to the Nuclear Supplier Groups requirements, the United States is going to ignore the rules, ... What will Russia say when they want to supply more nuclear materials or technology to Iran? You can be sure that Pakistan will demand equal treatment. Will the Bush administration soon be announcing nuclear cooperation with them?

The greatest fear is that somebody will sneak in a nuclear weapon into the port, it will be put into a truck and it will be brought into the interior United States.

It would be relatively easy for any terrorist group or rogue state to misuse nuclear materials, not as a nuclear bomb but as what's called a dirty bomb, where you mix the materials with conventional explosives,

While not formally part of the NPT regime, India has demonstrated a strong commitment to protect fissile materials and nuclear technology...India has resisted proposal for nuclear cooperation with nuclear aspirants that could have had adverse implications for international security,

A nuclear-armed Iran would represent a direct threat to U.S. forces and allies in the region, the greater Middle East, Europe and Asia, and eventually to the United States itself. At a minimum, it could seek to use nuclear weapons as a powerful tool of intimidation and blackmail.

I think America is at a far greater risk of a nuclear weapon going off on its soil in anger today than it ever was during the Cold War. If we have nuclear peace for the next 60 years, I would be mildly surprised.

We're getting 24-7 coverage on Iran -- which is still likely several years away from being able to produce a single nuclear weapon -- and little coverage on North Korea, which any day could shut down its nuclear reactor and obtain the plutonium for what could be its 10th, 11th or 12th nuclear weapon.

[Of the five proposals made by the committee, three concerned different types of international fuel supply guarantees as an incentive for countries to forswear their own enrichment facilities, and two were based on the notion of shared ownership or control. The latter involved] promoting voluntary conversion of existing facilities to multilateral nuclear approaches (MNAs), and pursuing them as confidence-building measures with the participation of non-nuclear-weapon states and nuclear-weapon states, and non-NPT states ... creating, through voluntary agreements and contracts, multinational, and in particular regional, MNAs for new facilities based on joint ownership, drawing rights or co-management.
