Lord Chalfont stated unequivocally that the USA is the only Superpower and the World is faced with domination. This is an unavoidable fact and so they are in a position to dictate Global Policy. Arms control, he said, is no defence and he endorses the SDI programme with the UK under it's sheild. But this defence sheild also has tremendous offensive capabilities and so makes nuclear weapons obsolete, which is why Bush is prepared to decommission them, as part of the deal. With plasma and photon beams who needs nukes to bully the World and hold Nations to ransom?
