I. Introduction

NATO has decided to retain hundreds of U.S. and British nuclear bombs forward
deployed in half a dozen European countries. But although NATO's North Atlantic
Council (1) predicted in November 1991 that anns control agreements would "result
in an unprecedented degree of military transparency in Europe, thus increasing
stability and mutual confidence, " (2) the number and precise location of the
nuclear bombs remain cloaked in military secrecy.

The role of these nuclear bombs is highly dubious. The Cold War has ended and the
threat of a large-scale military attack on Europe has disappeared with the break-up
of the Soviet Union and the demise of the Warsaw Pact. Instead, NATO is now tying
their mission to vague declarations of "maintaining peace" and "preventing war," as
well as to counter the alleged threat from Middle East countries seeking to acquire
nuclear weapons.
