4 May09–At Reykjavik the world once stood on the brink of total, allout nuclear disarmament. The year was 1986, and across the negotiating table Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev regarded each other eye to eye. Reagan was the first to flinch. He refused to give up his dream of a shield that could protect us from nuclear missiles just as a roof protects a family from the rain. Gorbachev foresaw the U.S. militarization of space. The prospect of a world without nuclear weapons was shot down by the very system that sought to make the threat of incoming missiles obsolete.
