So, I haven't seen anyone on the flist talk about this: Obama to seek arms reduction w/Russia. Why isn't this big news? I actually teared up when I read about it, not because I think reducing to 1,000 weapons per country is going to make the globe especially safer, but because - disarmament, man. Nuclear weapons reduction. Continuing committment to Start. Why aren't we all talking about this and remembering how important it is? Do we only care about Iran having nuclear weapons now or something?
