No, Mr. Stephens, the United States doesn't need more nuclear weapons - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists

No, Mr. Stephens, the United States doesn't need more nuclear weapons - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists: In an op-ed entitled “The U.S. Needs More Nukes,” New York Times columnist Bret Stephens laid out his case against arms control: “the bad guys cheat, the good guys don’t,” and all the while, the US nuclear arsenal is becoming “increasingly decrepit.”
It’s a simple narrative; it’s also false. In fact, Stephens’ article is largely littered with bad analogies, flawed assumptions, and straight-up incorrect facts about the nature of nuclear weapons and arms control.
