I’ve been meaning to post this for awhile now, and it’s only now that I’ve found time. But a couple weeks back, Jill Parillo from Physicians for Social Responsibility arranged a wonderful event called “Steps to Zero” at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. The evening featured a great panel of speakers talking about the nuclear challenges we’ll all face in the coming years and how to deal with them. The wonderful Sharon Squassoni mentioned–nearly in passing–that there are rumors going around that Iran might be chosen to act as the President of the 2010 Review Conference for the Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty.
In her words: “This would be a disaster.”
