POLITICAL: The START Treaty — just say no!

*** begin quote ***

The treaty limits the US missile defenses and the preamble suggests that we would not engage in any new military technologies to thwart nuclear weapons! It also says we cannot convert any of our rockets into interceptors and it locks in about a ten thousand Russian edge in tactical nuclear warheads. It reduces strategic warheads — where there is now rough parity — but not tactical ones where Russia has a huge advantage.

Why would any American support such a treaty?

The Russians are not our friends, not peaceful, and not wealthy enough to compete. But they are chess players. And, if they can get us to forgo our advantage or ignore their strength, they win and we lose.
