...strategic arms negotiations: We cannot take as our starting point a requirement that the Soviet Union reduce its strategic nuclear missile power by three times as much as the U.S. The American approach excludes cruise missiles from the calculations. How can we ignore that the U.S. plans to deploy 3,000 cruise missiles that will be able to penetrate our antiaircraft defenses? And at the same time, the U.S. is demanding that we reduce the principal weapons on our side, land-based missiles. We favor significant-I repeat significant-reductions. But we will never accept any proposal meant to weaken...
Little is known about Rasputin's early life. The man who told the Tsar who succeeding ministers should be and where to deploy troops appears to have been an ex-horse thief. Certainly he was an alcoholic and a womanizer. At the end of a night spent listening to gypsy music, he would reel after prostitutes, the gold cross the Tsarina had given him swinging from his neck...
...halt in the nuclear arms race would seem a logical precursor to reversing it. For one thing, the "freeze" is not necessarily as fuzzy a concept as its opponents claim, and could take the form of a mutual, comprehensive and relatively easily verifiable ban on testing and deploying new weapons. For another, the Administration has yet to make a convincing argument that theoretical Soviet strategic superiority, either in Europe or in the alleged ability to hit American land-based missiles, has much meaning in the real world. Even if one accepts Reagan's assertion that Moscow possesses a nuclear "margin...
...Trident submarine. The navy is spending $30 billion to build 12 of these 600-foot-long subs to hold one-third of the country's nuclear arsenal. For the price of a dozen Tridents, the navy could, according to some calculations, deploy 110 smaller, more maneuverable conventional submarines--many versions of which already exist to carry twice as many missiles and force the Soviets to locate nearly 10 times as many subs...
...deploy rational argument against such dreck? Professor Dominguez's own confession to an "antiquarian and deeply sexist" bias is the same horribly coy refusal to tackle his own destructive prejudices that I have seen again and again among men his age. It has probably constituted the Harvard faculty's most powerful--because unanswerable--defense against what it perceives as the invasion of hordes of Amazonian scholars, armed with Ph.D.'s (and Lord knows who gave them those), shrill voices, and--worst of all--the gall (shall we say) to call a mild-mannered male professor in his own home during...
