      <title>Options for a New American Strategy Toward Iran</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~3/Iud3poj0u6E/06_iran_strategy.aspx</link>
      <description>&lt;img src="http://www.brookings.edu/~/media/Files/Images/FeaturetteSmall/I/IP IZ/iran_flag001_fs.jpg?bc=Transparent&amp;mh=125&amp;mw=125" alt="Options for a New American Strategy Toward Iran" border="0"/&gt;&lt;br&gt;In a new Saban Analysis Paper, six Brookings experts analyze the main policy approaches toward Iran. In examining the benefits and drawbacks of the nine options—including engagement, persuasion, airstrikes, and containment—the authors refrain from recommending one policy over the other. Rather, they present the details of the policies in a manner that allows readers to understand the complexity of the challenge that is Iran and decide for themselves which group of policies is best.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/Iud3poj0u6E" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>Battles between the Pakistani army, al Qaeda and the Taliban are the latest in a deadly struggle for nuclear-armed Pakistan. Bruce Riedel assesses the history of Pakistan's nuclear program as well as the danger of extremists gaining access to weapons should Pakistan fall into the wrong hands.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/PA0mtRmd6KU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>Quarantine Possibilities for North Korea Shipping</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~3/FnmujQMim2Q/0528_north_korea_ohanlon.aspx</link>
      <description>Michael O'Hanlon writes that while North Korea risks some tightening of sanctions as a result of their recent nuclear test, it probably will not pay a huge and enduring price. O'Hanlon believes if North Korea is unwilling to dismantle its arsenal the U.S., China, and other international partners should set up a maritime quarantine to monitor ships that could transfer nuclear materials and technology to terrorists or other nations.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/FnmujQMim2Q" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>As the Pakistani military launched a new offensive against the Taliban in the country’s North-West Frontier Province, officials and former officials in Washington continued to discuss what the American response should be to the heightened conflict. Michael O'Hanlon offers his views on the situation.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/g7Cs_oUWBqU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Michael O'Hanlon argued that the Obama administration should instead be patient and use this as an opportunity for cooperation with an international coalition to secure longer-term goals.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/gdHHFajybFU" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>Though substantial progress was made on the homeland security front by the Bush administration, Michael O'Hanlon writes that the list of vulnerabilities is still very long. Targets are numerous, but O'Hanlon notes many are hard to protect and preventing catastrophic attacks should be the primary goal.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/lB980ebeOLg" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>A New Old Nuclear Arsenal</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~3/9j962AkF-O4/1225_nuclear_weapons_ohanlon.aspx</link>
      <description>Michael O'Hanlon discusses a likely disagreement between President-elect Obama and Defense Secretary Robert gates regarding the "reliable replacement warhead" (RRW) and the U.S. nuclear arsenal. O'Hanlon believes the right strategy will have two elements: redefine the RRW program as a remanufacture of an older design, and delay that program to allow Obama to create momentum for arms control.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/9j962AkF-O4" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>The next president will have an opportunity to make the elimination of all nuclear weapons and organizing principle of U.S. nuclear policy. It will take a real commitment, at the highest levels and beginning with the United States, to turn what Ivo Daalder and Jan Lodal&amp;nbsp;call the “logic of zero” into a practical reality.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/USg6XQ1vOvE" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>U.S. Policy Toward Iran: Missed Opportunities and Paths Forward</title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~3/97wQ8dywdwc/summer_iran_maloney.aspx</link>
      <description>Suzanne Maloney writes that U.S. policy toward Iran is in a profound state of disarray as international support for sanctions or use of force has dwindled recently. Maloney argues that the U.S. must first understand where the miscalculations occurred, and that the next administration should be prepared to outline a new way forward on Iran.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/97wQ8dywdwc" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~3/5gKkJMcCF1M/0926_north_korea_ohanlon.aspx</link>
      <description>Michael O'Hanlon writes that Korea has been the forgotten nuclear crisis, but the presidential candidates need to talk about—and show understanding of—the issues. O'Hanlon believes North Korea should be offered a roadmap to much improved economic and political relations if it gives up nuclear weapons and makes gradual reforms in its conventional military, its economy and its human rights behavior.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/5gKkJMcCF1M" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Gordon believes China should stop refusing to place significant sanctions on Iran, and that Chinese leaders should focus on the long-term regional and&amp;nbsp;global&amp;nbsp;impact of a nuclear capable Iran instead of the short-term impact of their energy relationship.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/VBHlFjXUCJ0" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

Under a military dictatorship that enabled the growth of al Qaeda, the country now poses the primary danger to America. The next president must go beyond threats and sanctions, Riedel urges, and help Pakistan find peace with its neighbors and itself through democracy.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/_ypkg28lV0U" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <title>U.S. is One of the ‘Central Pillars’ of Indian Foreign Policy </title>
      <link>http://webfeeds.brookings.edu/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~3/pXnQFVGJVxw/0429_india_riedel.aspx</link>
      <description>Bruce Riedel sees the improvement in U.S.-India relations as a major accomplishment of the Bush administration, which carried forward progress made during President Bill Clinton’s tenure. Riedel says the U.S.-India nuclear agreement, which has been held up by opposition in India’s parliament, is likely to be approved next year, and that both major Indian political parties now see the United States as one of “the central pillars of India’s foreign policy.”&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/pXnQFVGJVxw" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>As ironies go this one is in a class by itself. George Bush went to Iraq in search of weapons of mass destruction, stayed to search for democracy and is finding out that democracy has become Iraq's weapon of mass destruction. But this may not be the most significant irony of Bush's second term, now wallowing in the swamps of popular regret.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/HJ5HxyL1t1E" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

      <description>The nuclear deal with India that President Bush agreed to in New Delhi last week is a missed opportunity for American leadership on nonproliferation.

      <description>On the eve of President George W. Bush's visit to India and Pakistan, both sides are racing to complete the nuclear agreement announced in the July, 18, 2005 communiqué between Bush and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh the time he reaches New Delhi on March 1, and there is a good chance that, as Stephen Hadley, Bush's National Security Advisor noted in a press briefing, negotiations will continue. Informed observers on both sides claim that agreement can be reached before the end of 2006, and implemented over the next few years.&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BrookingsRSS/topics/weaponsofmassdestruction/~4/1GyrLA1_FRk" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
