The Reagan Doctrine
You might have missed it, but it was boomed in January.
(Page 3 of 4)
AS I SEE IT, the problem with the arms control movement is just that: It is an arms control movement, not a disarmament movement. The two, after all, are not the same. Indeed, such groups as the Harvard Nuclear Study Project have been at great pains to argue that disarmament is an unrealistic objective, that the world must “learn to live with nuclear weapons.” To do this, the Harvard group argues, we must discard the pipe dreams of defense and of disarmament, and seek as our objective a world in which the U.S. and the Soviet Union agree to freeze their strategic arsenal at some agreed-on, stable level. In other words, we must have as our goal perpetual nuclear stalemate. By this thinking, MAD is not a stopgap policy or a second-best means of keeping the peace until defense or disarmament is possible. It is an end in itself.
Such nonsense led Jonathan Schell, in his second book, The Abolition, to break ranks with the mainstream arms control movement. After all, Schell asked, can we expect to “live” with such arsenals forever without eventually using them? The hope that that situation will never produce a war is no hope at all. For making this common-sense point, Schell’s major thesis was roundly rejected by Paul Warnke, Jimmy Carter’s arms negotiator and probably the dean of the MAD-is-good school. Writing in the New York Times Book Review, Mr. Warnke called the idea of total disarmament “incompatible” with arms control, indeed “alarming.”
Most rank-and-file freeze supporters would side with Mr. Schell. So, too, do a growing number of politicians on the left and right. Both hardliner Rep. Jim Courter and dovish Rep. Les Aspin have expressed an interest in proceeding with Star Wars while paring offensive systems that Star Wars would make unnecessary. And so, ironically, does Mr. Reagan, who persistently points to complete nuclear disarmament and not mere “arms control” as the goal of negotiations. Why, then, do Warnke, Robert McNamara, Dean Rusk, and the rest of the arms control establishment so doggedly insist that MAD is the supreme objective?
In one sense, they cling to MAD because it keeps them in business. Just as the poverty worker has a kind of interest in the continuation of poverty, the arms negotiator has an interest in the continuation of MAD. If the world is somehow made substantially safer from nuclear weapons, Warnke and McNamara suddenly become much less important people. This is not to say that these men oppose such ambitious solutions as defense and disarmament out of a sinister desire to maintain their own standing. But it is only natural to regard what you’ve been doing the last twenty years of your life as important.
But if we clearly state that the goal of arms talks and weapons deployments is to make nuclear weapons “obsolete,” then it becomes clear that most of what has been exalted as “arms control” since the 1960s has been essentially a vain set of squabbles over relatively secondary objectives. This is so not because men such as Paul Warnke and Henry Kissinger are dupes, but because they have been laboring under a framework that cannot produce success. We might even say that arms control, by repeatedly focusing on short-term gimmicks and objectives and debates, has actually distracted the world from the only real solutions to the nuclear threat. We have argued and niggled over this many nuclear missiles or that many ABM interceptors, seeking after limits on systems that cannot be verified or can be verified but are not worth limiting — all without getting any closer to the real objective. We haggle over the next step without even asking whether it is a step in the right direction.
One party has a compelling interest in all this: the Soviet Union. After all, the supreme argument of arms controllers is that the Soviets and the United States have a mutual interest in limiting nuclear arms. But do they? In a chilling column in the New York Times, Harvard’s Nick Eberstadt challenged that assertion, asking readers to “imagine what the world would be like” if the U.S. and the Soviets were suddenly able to abolish nuclear weapons. Would the Soviets remain a serious international power? Would Moscow be able to compel Poland, East Germany, and Hungary to remain in the empire? Would Americans or most Europeans much care what the Soviet position was on any issue? Would the Chinese be content to engage in mere border skirmishes, or would they advance on the historically successful conqueror’s road to Moscow from the East? In short, would the Soviets be anything but a second-rate power?
In a vague, inchoate way the American left understands this, which more than anything else accounts for its deep psychological resistance to anything other than the prospect of continual arms negotiations with the Soviet Union. Nuclear weapons, Phil Nicolaides once observed, are like a bright light, to which the West reacts like a frightened animal in the dark — frozen with fear, unable to move while the Soviet Union points the paralyzing lamp in its face. The connection is so deeply imbedded it no longer even has to be stated: The New York Times doesn’t say we can’t aid the freedom fighters in Nicaragua because it might lead to a nuclear war; it simply calls the policy “dangerous” and “provocative,” and our imagination supplies the rest.
Of course the one thing worse for the Soviets than a world in which both superpowers are free of the threat of nuclear annihilation is a world in which only the United States is. That is why Moscow will, eventually, be willing to go along with a U.S. Star Wars program as the basis for genuine arms control. It has no choice. With Star Wars, Mr. Reagan, like Bernhard Goetz, can now take the law into his own hands.
FOR WHAT STAR WARS promises is to inch us, ever so tenuously, toward a world without nuclear weapons, and that is why the Soviets, who have no interest in such a world, will fight it more bitterly than they have fought any American defense program in history. And yet, provided it is clearly and persistently explained, the Reagan Doctrine is well armed to resist any attack that can be launched against it.
The scientific argument against Star Wars will be repeated ad nauseam. But it will prove increasingly impotent, in part because such Star Wars advocates as George Keyworth, Daniel O. Graham, and Robert Jastrow have done a good job of swatting down the arguments of Carl Sagan, Ashton Carter, and other MAD enthusiasts, which have little to do with strategic defense. The Union of Concerned Scientists, for example, begins its 100-page plus attack on Star Wars with the straightforward statement that it seeks to evaluate only a “total” ballistic missile defense. It goes on to assert that to be leak-proof, such a defense must catch all missiles in the “boost phase,” i.e., within minutes of firing. A criterion of this sort makes it easy to argue that strategic defense is unworkable. Indeed, the scientific critique of Star Wars is just another variant of the MAD argument that defenses must be “perfect” to have utility.
A more serious stumbling block to Star Wars has to do with the long lead time envisioned by the Administration. Even with its dramatically improved explanation of the program in recent months, the Reagan team plans to spend $25-to-$50 billion on research and development alone, stretching the first deployment until well in the 1990s. Will Star Wars still be popular eight years from now, when the American people find they have spent $50 billion and are not an inch closer to actual defense?
Robert Jastrow argues the program can survive even such momentous delays; Daniel Graham thinks not. History, and common sense, alas, are with Graham’s assessment that the present mega-year program will not survive the yearly budget assault of Congress. If a fifteen-year, business-as-usual procurement cycle governs Star Wars as it has the MX and B-1 bomber, the program could be doomed, and perhaps rightly so: By the time the Pentagon (with the usual kibitzing from Congress) has over-designed and overbuilt today’s emerging defensive technologies, the systems that result may well not be worth building.
Happily, the Administration has of late been inching towards the Graham model, though without giving its feisty author any credit. In recent congressional testimony, Fred Ikle, a top Weinberger aide, argued that “interim” Star Wars systems could be deployed much sooner on the road to future, more hi-tech layers. Even George Shultz said in January that the Administration might consider a deployment scheme to begin “by 1989.”
The final threat to the Reagan arms control doctrine, of course, is arms control itself. Patrick Buchanan framed the problem with characteristic concision in a recent telephone conversation: “What if the Soviets offer to trade away 2,000 missile warheads if we don’t build Star Wars? Can Reagan resist an offer like that?”
The correct answer to such an offer is not hard to discern. Mr. Reagan simply tells the Soviets, “Thank you for the offer, but we’re not giving up Star Wars. Tell you what: We’ll go ahead with that program, and we’ll tear up the 2,000 warheads.” It is not clear, however, whether Mr. Reagan would be prepared to give this answer. Yet, there are good reasons to think that when push comes to shove, he will stick with strategic defense.

Well Reagan met with Gorbachov and signed a huge nuclear arms control treaty, that reduced the world's nuclear arms. The Neoconservatives fought him every step of the way. For them the Cold War would never end. These same lunatics want us to spend vast amounts of American money, defending Europe from the missiles of the ghosts of Hitler, and Stalin, and a non existent Iranian atomic weapons program. All these countries don't need this phantom defense which is only agravating both Russia and China. The only nuclear power with a program to blow up much of the world is Israel with it's Samson Option. That is the country which should be surrounded with an Star Wars program to stop them from blowing up the world.
The heads of the Israeli military and intelligence communities have spoken up against the warmongering of the present government of Binny Netanyahu and his defense minister Barak. Among them is the current headof the military General Ganz. The current head of the Mossad who has said that Iran is a rational player and is not an essential threst to Israel at this time. Others who have spoken up are General Ashkanazi, former military chief, former Shin Bet head Yuval Diskin, and former heads of the Mossad Meir Dagan, and Effriam Halevey. I wish we had such brave officers in this country, who could have stopped the disaster in Iraq from happening.

" Ex-Israeli officials criticize Netanyahu’s bellicose stance on Iran
TEHRAN - The former head of Israel’s Shin Bet security agency has criticized Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak for adopting a bellicose stance on Iran, according to the Haaretz daily.
Yuval Diskin, who was speaking at a public meeting in Beit-ul-Moqaddas (Jerusalem) on Friday, said Israel’s political leaders are exaggerating the effectiveness of a possible military attack on Iran, AP reported.
“I don’t have faith in the current leadership of Israel…,” he stated.
“I do not believe in a leadership that makes decisions based on Messianic feelings,” Diskin added.
Former Mossad chief Meir Dagan backed Diskin on Sunday, saying that he disagrees with Netanyahu’s policy on solving Iran’s issue, according to Haaretz.
He also called a strike against Iran’s nuclear program “stupid”, AP reported.
Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said at a conference hosted by the Jerusalem Post in New York on Sunday that he is against an attack on Iran, criticizing Netanyahu’s policy on Iran, Bloomberg reported.
In addition, Israel’s military chief Lieutenant General Benny Gantz, in an interview with Haaretz published on April 25, said that he does not believe Iran will decide to develop nuclear weapons, describing the country’s leadership as “very rational”.
“I think the Iranian leadership is comprised of very rational people,” Gantz stated."

Dear Jack and Clint,
We Zionist Jews at Hasbaret HQ would like to personally like to thank you and Clint for your steller work in assuring that the possible election of Ron Paul would never occur.
The tireless efforts you both have put forth by illustrating the type and caliber of lunatics that follow Mr. Paul's coat tails virtually assured that any sane person would vote for somebody else, in fact ANYBODY else than Ron Paul.
We now have our man, Mitt Romney in the drivers seat as we have planned which as you know fits well into our plan for world domination and control of the human race.
A special thanks goes out to Clint, who, taking time out from his busy and hectic life of importance somewhere, religiously posted his unrelenting drivel 7 days a week, 12 months a year until it reviled anybody who may have been Ron Paul oriented heading to the voting booth. Thanks Clint for wasting hours and days of your life you'll never get back from your time here on earth. Your supreme sacrifice on our behalf will never be forgotten.
signed,
The boys at Hasbaret HQ, Eli, Mordecai, Elezar and Samual.

We all need to REMEMBER who these people are.
They're Joe Kennedy Sr. and Walter Duranty. They liked Hitler, and LOVED Stalin. They're Hollywood, and Madison Avenue, putting out their Leftist Propaganda on "The SIN of being a Patriot".
They are the people who have sought to Undermine our Armed Forces' ability to keep us safe, for 60 Years. They're the ones who DEMANDED that South Vietnam fight their own War, and then Stabbed them in the Back, by refusing them the Weapons that they needed, and that they had been PROMISED.
They marched in Europe over the placement of Short Range Nuclear Missiles in West Germany, to COUNTER the ones that the Communist Warsaw Pact, already had in place and pointed at Western Europe.
They marched for Unilateral Disarmament. They marched over here, and they marched over there. One of them, a young William Jefferson Blythe Clinton - the lying, RAPIST, son of a Hot Springs Whore, and a future Impeached President, actually Marched in the Capitol City (MOSCOW) of our greatest Enemy.
They fought AGAINST very new Weapons System. They fought the rebuilding of our Navy. They fought the upgrading of our Nuclear Stockpiles. They fought the B-1 Bomober, the Abrams Tank, and every form of Missile Defence.
They've even gone to the lengths of committing TREASON, with Jane Fonda going over to the Enemy Camp to give Aid and Comfort to the North Vietnamese troops who were killing OUR TROOPS. There was the release of the Pentagon Papers. And, there was the son of the Hitler Lover - TED KENNEDY - offering his ADVICE to the leader of the SOVIET UNION, on how to defeat OUR PRESIDENT- Ronald Reagan-in their upcoming Negotiations.
They Marched in the streets against The War in Vietnam. They attacked the Honour of our Troops, calling them "Baby Killer" and Spitting on them, when they come home.
They're the SCUM that Marched in the Streets in the Sixties. They're the Black Panthers, the Weather Underground, the Symbian Liberation Army, and the Chicago 7.
It's over 50 Years later, and they are STILL at it.
They are still Blaming America 1st. They are still doing everything to UNDERMINE OUR TROOPS in Wartime. They still have Compassion for our Enemies, and COMTEMPT for the rest of us.
The Politicians, the News Media, the Hollywood Elites. They still Fight this Country, like a Spoiled Rich Kid, who rebels against his parents, who have always given him everything he could have ever wanted. It's a miracle that we've made it this far.
Today? I don't know. But I get the feeling that others have felt the way I do, now.
Egyptians, Persians, Rome, and the people of Great Britain, when it hit them that, this is the beginning of the End. That, the Greatness that they had known, for so long, was about to be passed on to someone else.
Think about it.
The country that put a Man ON THE MOON, now requires a "Ride" from the Land of Drunks, if it wants to Break the Surly Bonds, these days.
God help my Children, and their Children.

Excellent article and accurately true in conception, theory, perception, reality, and fact.
So to look at the overall context of what President Reagan had to deal with is amazing how much he accomplished as US President.
Of course today, with Obama as President, the opposite is happening, as Obama intentionally gives away America's defenses to the Russians and Chinese, along with his direct downsizing, gutting, and hollowing out of the US Military, via Defense Budget, stopping and or delaying new technology from being implemented, stopping the upgrades and new inventory resupply of Military hardware of ships, planes, etc, along with his intentional proposal to remove 80% of America's nuclear arsenal and their delivery systems, as Obama sees America has the evil empire, and not the socialist-marxist communists.
Caroline Glick from her article "America’s Descent into Strategic Dementia"- Mar 21st 2011
quote-
"Since taking office, Obama has made clear that he views the US as an imperialist power on the world stage. As a result, the overarching goal of Obama’s foreign policy has been to end US global hegemony.
Obama looks to the UN as a vehicle for tethering the US superpower. He views US allies in the Middle East and around the world with suspicion because he feels that as US allies, they are complicit with US imperialism." -unquote

Thus is the madness of such a national leader, for which the people elected.. Thus the madness extends to the voting electorate that elects someone who is determined and bent on the destruction of their own country.
And the so is the truth about Obama's agenda of and accomplishment of America's internal intentional destruction in and of every area of the Nation from the Economy, to Energy, to National Defense, etc, etc.
If one were to say how can we have let this happen, I would only say this- Complacency, Ignorance, and Indifference, breeds Apathy and Stupidity, then Disaster.
The left is a cancerous toxic ideology, and can and will completely destroy a civilized society of Freedom, Liberty, Democracy, and the Truth, in a blink of an eye. Thus is the left, aka liberals, whole premise of being, the tearing down and destroying of everything good in this world just to make their statist utopian paradise of misery, poverty, and societal blithe a reality, just to make themselves ideologically politically happy.. Compared to the Conservative premise of being, aka the opposite of liberals, to build up everything that is good in this world, the US Constitution, Individual Freedom and Liberty and sovereignty, and "We the People" as the supreme power and authority in this Nation, not the govt..

If we fail, at least let our children and our children's children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could be done."
Freedom ... must be fought for, protected, and handed on for [our children] to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children, what it was once like where men were free.
There can be no real peace while one American is dying some place in the world for the rest of us. We're at war with the most dangerous enemy that has ever faced mankind ... and ... if we lose that war, and in so doing lose this way of freedom of ours, history will record ... that those who had the most to lose did the least to prevent its happening."

Ronald Reagan,
" Perhaps we didn't appreciate fully enough the depth of the hatred and the complexity of the problems that made the Middle East such a jungle. Perhaps the idea of a suicide car bomber committing mass murder to gain instant entry to Paradise was so foreign to our own values and consciousness that it did not create in us the concern for the marines' safety that it should have.
In the weeks immediately after the bombing, I believed the last thing that we should do was turn tail and leave. Yet the irrationality of Middle Eastern politics forced us to rethink our policy there. If there would be some rethinking of policy before our men die, we would be a lot better off. If that policy had changed towards more of a neutral position and neutrality, those 241 marines would be alive today."

-----AS 'RE-education CAMP' documents
are now leaking across the web.
PNAC documents from Dick 'CHAIN--knee'
back in 2000---LONG PUBLIC.
Subsequent reams of documents implementing
RE---EDUCATION internment camps
---weaponized 'la Bottom ---ME' shots
and PSY OPS ----ALLLLLL laid out for
ALLLLL to see.
Yet still, the addicts of rectum worship
REFUSE to rise from their '90's Show'
CON-----ops 'CON--dish--inning.'
"In the camps throughout the war,
until the very end, you'd hear the
murmurs ---'WHY did we do NOTHING
when we could have? ----WHY???????' "
-Auchwitz 'Survivor'
SO, YOU THERE! ---put aside the playoffs,
and porn, and 'Simpson's' programming, and
Tavistock engineered, triggered responses.
YOUR government has been USURPED.
------------The Republic has FALLEN--------------
--------------OCCUPATION is HERE!-----------------
----Once you've dropped your feeble,
'authorized' OUCH WITs ---get ready and
turn around.
-------TAKE A GOOD LONG DEEP LOOK at
manner, nature and 'plans' of capstone
USURY, the 'hidden masters' thereof,
----and their primordial 'fave' op-----
-------------FINAL EUGENICS------------.
NOW unfolding ---WORLDWIDE. . .
