"The decline of the Soviet Union may have left many Americans feeling safer from nuclear war, but a disturbing new study argues that an attack by terrorists sponsored by a small nuclear state could be just as lethal."
"Washington - US President George W Bush warned Wednesday that a nuclear-armed Iran could lead to a third world war because of the Islamic state's determination to destroy Israel. "We have got a leader in Iran who has announced that he wants to destroy Israel," Bush said, referring to Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad."
"WASHINGTON — President Bush, weakened by record-low poll ratings, asserted he is still politically relevant and scolded the Democratic-led Congress on Wednesday for having "little to show for all the time that has gone by."
"SEOUL, South Korea — The specter of an Asian atomic arms race loomed over the region Monday after communist North Korea shocked the world by announcing it conducted its first-ever nuclear test in a brazen move that fueled global jitters."
"The U.S. Navy's successful missile hit and apparent destruction of a defunct spy satellite represents a major step forward in the space arms race in the eyes of some analysts. Others are not so sure."
"UNITED NATIONS: The US “war” against global terrorism threatens to trigger a new arms race in the Middle East and Asia, say defence analysts.
Oman already has chalked up a major munitions purchase under Washington’s New policy of unrestricted arms sales and military assistance to countries willing to join its coalition against suspected terrorists."
"Nov. 3 2006 will be remembered as the day the Middle East changed forever, six Arab states announced their intention to initiate programmes to master atomic technology. Morocco, Algeria, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt, want to start civilian nuclear energy programs. Tunisia and the United Arab Emirates also showed interest."
"The specter of a new military rivalry between Moscow and Washington has been looming since Vladimir Putin delivered a speech highly critical of the United States at the Munich Security Conference earlier this month. Is it the birth of a new arms race between the former arch-enemies?"
"MOSCOW: Russian President Vladimir Putin has ripped to pieces the concept of a unipolar world and blasted the United States for indiscriminate use of force, which provoked other countries to seek nuclear weapons."
"One striking feature of international relations in the last two decades has been the proliferation of arms in Third World countries. While international attention focused on the arms race between the United States and the Soviet Union, military and arms buildup in the Third World continued unabated, exacerbating existing conflicts in these regions. This buildup occurred not just with the ready assistance of the two superpowers and their allies; it was also aided by Third World countries themselves, many of which actively entered the international arms market as sellers."
