I’ve been listening to people attempt to downplay the devastation Obama will bring to America over the next four years. They drone on about how our government’s checks and balances prevent any president from doing too much damage to our nation. Unfortunately this assumes that American government still functions as it was intended to function. People are apparently unaware that our government no longer follows its own laws.
It is absolutely true that the Founding Fathers gave us a system of government that should have protected our nation from the excesses of any single president. However, the checks and balances, balance of powers, and other limitations enshrined in the Constitution (which they now call gridlock), have all been ignored by our current government. Those checks and balances disappeared as soon as those in power realized that they could ignore the law and no one would do anything about it. This leaves America vulnerable to any tyrant capable of winning an election… Take Obama for instance.
Now that the Constitution is completely ignored, elections determine what the bare majority can inflict upon the other 49% of the population. There are no restraints, no restrictions on governmental authority, no limitations on governmental power, no protection of inalienable rights. Four more years of Obama is scary ONLY because the government ignores the Constitution and BECAUSE there are no longer any separations of powers.
Earlier this year the U.S. Attorney General announced that the President had the legal authority to order the
killing of any person, including a U.S. citizen, without trial. He explained that under certain circumstances, the President can order anyone outside America to be killed. Of course the circumstances are to be determined by Obama and his staff. No due process. No oversight. No appeal. PLAINLY unconstitutional. but he did it anyway.
A few days after this announcement the Director of the FBI was questioned by a Congressional committee as to whether it applied to U.S. citizens within the borders of the U.S. His answer was that he would have to check the law. He DIDN’T say, “no, that would clearly be unconstitutional.” He DIDN’T say, “That would clearly violate the citizen’s right to not be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process.” He DIDN’T immediately respond by saying, “Hell NO, that would be murder.” The highest ranking government official in the federal government’s domestic law enforcement department said he wasn’t sure if the president had authority to unilaterally order the murder of an American citizen on American soil.
A government that ignores its own laws is NOT A GOVERNMENT!!!
It’s just a bunch of bullies asserting the power through coercion and threats. Our government now ignores its own laws. America, as established by our Founding Fathers, was a GREAT country. We must do whatever it takes to get it back. Our daily lives will get worse, MUCH worse, if we don’t throw off this outlaw band of bullies.
One step forward, two steps back:
Last summer the Supreme Court agreed with LLF’s argument in the U.S. v. Arizona case. Liberty Legal Foundation filed an amicus brief that made only one point: That existing Federal Law prohibited the Obama administration from telling Arizona it couldn’t ask for immigration status information on individual arrestees. To the best of their knowledge, no one else made this point to the Court. This was one of the few areas that the Court found in favor of the State of Arizona.
Unfortunately, the Court also told Arizona, and every other state, that States can’t enforce Federal immigration law. This part of the decision was completely unique in American history. This was a huge defeat that leaves no check on the president’s total authority regarding enforcement of immigration law. In the words of dissenting Justice Scalia, the 50 States are no longer sovereign. In the end LLF did what they could, but the Court’s decision on a different part of the case caused much more damage than LLF fixed. They plug one hole, the Court makes a bigger one somewhere else.
The Court also agreed with LLF, to a certain degree, in the Obamacare case. Again, LLF filed an amicus brief. Again, LLF was practically alone in making the most important argument: the commerce clause was never intended to allow Congress to do anything it wants to do. The Court didn’t overturn Wickard v. Filburn, as they wanted, but it did agree that the individual mandate was beyond Congressional authority under the commerce clause. The Court said that even the Wickard standard doesn’t justify the individual mandate.
Unfortunately the Court then issued completely new and completely arbitrary and unexpected precedent granting Congress authority to enforce any regulation Congress can dream up; as long as enforcement is via a fine collected by the IRS. The Court’s Obamacare ruling blew all tax and spend clause precedent out of the water. It opened a completely new avenue for Congress to assert authority that was explicitly denied to Congress by the Founding Fathers. Again, the Court gave LLF what they asked for, but made matters much worse by changing the rules elsewhere.
It seems that federal courts are determined to kill whatever remains of the Constitution. We must find a way to re-establish the rule of law.
We must find a solution before the only solution is armed conflict. because that is what an oppressed population eventually degrades to… all out civil war. Obama has us hurling in that direction. At some point soon, the producers who are carrying the rest of the parasites on their backs will say no more and either leave the U.S., or join the battle. either choice is horrible… and they are BOTH the fault of Barack Obama and his parasite followers.


5 years on, Barca TV test whether Andres Iniesta can score his Chelsea goal again
Its one of the most famous Champions League goals of all time and it happened five years ago tomorrow.
Andres Iniesta sent Barcelona into the 2009 Champions League final with a last gasp goal at Stamford Bridge.
Lionel Messi cut the ball back from the edge of the box and there was Iniesta to arrow a terrific strike past Petr Cech in the Chelsea goal.
Having scored the wonder goal on May 6, 2009, Barca TV caught up with Iniesta again to see if he could score a similar goal on the training pitch.

About Nikki and the Corvettes
Nikki and the Corvettes were part of the late-1970s/early-1980s Girl Group revival that rode in on the tidal wave of Power Pop bands popular at the time. While groups like the Go-Go's and the Bangles polished their Punk-derived sound to make a stab at the big time, Nikki and the Corvettes' songs kept an innocent, light, beach party sound while singing about the subject on every teenage girl's mind -- boys. Nikki Corvette's sweet, misty voice works well with fluffy guitars that sound similar to the Real Kids' take on Eddie Cochran. Part of what makes Nikki & the Corvettes so great is their ability to make you feel like you're kicking around on the beach with your friends. The bubbly guitars and tingly, bouncy melodies go down easy and leave you thirsty for more. Though Nikki & the Corvettes didn't last long, they proved to have a lasting impression on girl pop bands, most notably Bobbyteens. They released only one single and an LP, both on Bomp Records.

Master Class with Jeremy Denk and students of the Chamber Music Society going over the Dvorak Piano Quintet in A major, B. 155, Op. 81. Very fun to see the little adjustments Denk brings out of the students and how it affects the music
“ I don’t understand religion. I don’t get it at all. I understand why people need it, but I think they’re wrong. They don’t. I do see that on a crude-ish level, when someone dies, it’s nice and comforting to think that they’re going to heaven and that they’re going to be wrapped up warm for eternity. But they’re not. Heaven doesn’t exist. If you just think about it for a minute, the person is dead, they’re gone, they’re not coming back, and you’ll never see them again. And when you go, you’ll never see anybody again. Just face it. I feel stronger because of it. Knowing that I can’t lean on religion to get through life. If you are leaning on it, you won’t be living your life to the fullest.
“ We expected that the performance will become viral and be controversial, that was the plan from the beginning. It is better to look at beautiful models pretending to play the guitar than ugly musicians who actually play the guitar.

I am having real difficulty understanding how calling the vote function for valid votes in runoff is supposed to work.
The relevant part of the distribution code is as follows:
// Record vote, unless it's invalid
if (!vote(i, j, name))
I understand that the vote function is supposed to update the preferences array to record each voter's preference.
I also understand that the exclamation (!) before vote in the code above means that if the vote function returns false then it's an invalid vote and prints the 'Invalid vote' error message.
What I don't understand is how the above code records a valid vote (per the comment at the top of the snippet). To me the only thing that happens in the above code is to print out 'Invalid Vote' if vote returns false.
What happens if vote returns true? I would have thought we would need to add additional line(s) of code to deal with that situation, but per the spec we are not expected to edit anything other than the functions. Is it implicit in the above code that if vote returns true then the vote function runs as normal and updates the preferences array?
Ironically I am having more difficulty grasping the mechanics of the function call on a conceptual level than I am coding the actual vote function itself.
Thanks very much in advance for any clarification.

I found out that a retro network will air 20 straight hours of “One Day at a Time” for Mother’s Day. Although I enjoyed the show, no way I’d ever watch more than a couple of hours of any program. Has anyone out there watched a single program for an incredibly long period of time, whether it be breaking news/entire telethon/rerun marathon or something else?
I don’t know if it counts as a “single program” but I’ve watched Super Bowl pregame shows from sunup until the game starts before.
I once watched the entire 7th season of Buffy the Vampire slayer that aired as a marathon. I had discovered the show a year or two earlier and had watched the first six seasons on DVD, so the timing worked out fairly well.
Back in the days before YouTube and when 24-hour music stations actually played videos, I watched entire 12-hour loops of programming a few times. Usually it was a “theme weekend” of some kind that I was interested in.
I watched a ST: NG marathon on New Years day (24hrs).
Although, I admit, I was way too hung over to actually want to look for, and pay attention to, any good programing that might have been on at the time.
I just wanted to stare at the TV and not have to use my brain and think about what’s going on with the plot line.
ST: NG fit that bill nicely as I’ve already seen every episode a hundred times. Plus it was also nice to be able to take a nap on the couch, wake up mid episode, and know exactly what was going on.
A few marathons, over the years. Aside from the ones that were largely “background noise” (like during holidays), or that I was mostly just recording (on VHS, usually. Ah, memories…), I think the longest stretch of actually sitting down and watching every minute was for AMC’s Godzilla marathon, back in 1999, which was 12+ hours, including (IIRC) the broadcast premieres of the Heisei-series movies.
Granted, I was also doing it as part of my MST3K group’s chat room regular “Home Game,” where we were riffing as it aired. There were only three of us left, at the end.
After that…probably Olympic opening/closing ceremonies. Ever since 1994, although I recorded but never actually found the time to watch most of London’s.
No more than three hours and I’m not sure I even did that. I’ll watch all episodes of a show, but the only show I’ve ever binge watched was Weeds – because we had to get the DVD back.
I will have The Walking Dead marathon on AMC on all day and all night. They usually have one before the season premiere each year. I will also watch Mad Men marathons. Harry Potter weekend on ABC family channel? I’m there, and Lord of the Rings weekend, too. I don’t sit and watch, slack jawed, from start to finish, but it’s on as background, and I usually get to see my favorite parts.
I watched the entire second season of Homeland during a “free HBO” weekend. It was 10 or 12 hours or something.
It was so good that I actually subscribed to HBO. But the next (and subsequent) seasons didn’t even come close. That second season ended on an intensely climactic high point that for story reasons, could never be reached again. They kept trying to top it, but the show just got weird after that.
The guy, whose name I forget-- the returnee, the one whose loyalty was in question-- wore a suicide vest into the bunker with all the gummint VIPs and was just about to detonate it and blow up Capitol Hill when his cell phone rang and it was his daughter calling. That snapped him out of it. It was one of THE most intense TV moments I’ve ever experienced, and there was no way to top it. The series should have ended right there.
When the Olympics are on I will usually leave the TV on that channel for extended periods, and last time (London) I happened to be quite unwell with a lung infection so it was a welcome distraction in the middle of the night whenever I woke from a feverish dream to a bout of coughing.
Having said that, I also watched DVDs in between boring bits, when it seemed to be 72 hours of diving, so it probably doesn’t really count within the OP’s rules.
Do general elections count? I’ve had the TV on from before the close of polls until the morning. And I’ll be doing so again this time.
Our cable box will automatically turn itself off after 8 hours of inactivity. I know there have been a few times, either a football Sunday or during the NCAA basketball tournament, where the box has turned itself off while I was watching because I hadn’t changed the channel all day. But I wasn’t necessarily watching the same program the whole time.
My mother made me watch JFK’s State Funeral in its entirety - November 25th, 1963. I’m sure it was on NBC, because that was the channel that gave us the best reception.
We watched a marathon of the original “Iron Chef” on Food Network, on New Year’s Day one year (maybe around 2000). I think that was around 16 hours or so.
by watching A Christmas Story for 24 hours you can look for all the details.
Not necessarily a station, since I mostly watch things online or from my video library, but I’m an archive binger. If I’m watching a series, I tend to watch it straight through, rather than switching around, so I’m usually watching the same thing for however long I watch. Five or six hours is probably the longest I’ve ever watched at a stretch with my full attention, and that’s only when I have a new series to plow through.
When I’m sick or hurt enough to be strictly resting, I tend to put on a “comfort” show–something I’ve seen already and like and don’t have to think about much, like Shakes’ ST:NG marathon–and leave it running as I drift in and out. I think the longest I’ve ever done that at a stretch was a couple of days, but I obviously wasn’t really watching it continuously for that long.
I was hospitalized and I didn’t have anything to read or my computer. So the TV was my only entertainment. I watched more TV in a month than I normally watch in a year.
At one point, a cable channel was running a marathon of Hogan’s Heroes, which isn’t even a particular favorite of mine. But I watched seven episodes in a row.
FXX when they were showing the Simpsons marathon. The station wasn’t changed for days.
No one here watched for long stretches on 9/11? The Moon landing?
I did a marathon of Dexter for many, many hours. I had some pretty gnarly dreams that night. :eek:

It isn't easy these days being a Parsi.
The Parsis are a community of Zoroastrians that settled in South Asia. They are followers of the religion of ancient Persia.
In Pakistan they are concentrated mostly in the port city of Karachi. They have made quite a remarkable impact on the metropolis, but the size of the always small Parsi community in Karachi is in decline.
That's just a drop in the ocean of a city that has a total population of over 14 million.
Zane Byramji and Tashan Mistree's are a twenty-something Parsi couple now living in Karachi. Five years ago, they met at an international Zoroastrian youth event in Australia.
"I didn't want to go at first," says Byramji. "I was pretty hesitant because I thought it was more focused on religion than anything else. I wanted to make a holiday out of it. That's where I met Tash."
"We don't have arranged marriages, but we have a lot of pressure coming from parents and friends," explains Byramji.
Mistree chimes in: "We always say the grandmas and the aunties all have a club.
and they are all kind of in cohort together and try to hook people up."
Byramji was born and raised in Karachi. He went to Canada for college and now works at his family's brokerage firm. Mistree was born in Washington DC and was living across the border in Mumbai, India before their marriage.
"I didn't realize it would really work out because a week after the congress we met in Melbourne," says Byramji. "And from there we started talking and we flew back to India and Pakistan, and then spoke on the plane for ten hours and decided to be in a relationship."
They got married in Mumbai last year. Mistree moved to Karachi to live with Byramji.
Her move comes at a time when the population of Parsis in Pakistan is dwindling. There are now fewer than 1,700, down from more than 7,000 several decades ago, mostly in Karachi.
The Parsi community is defined largely by their adherence to the Zoroastrian religion — the religion of ancient Persia.
Sometimes they are referred to as "fire-worshippers" because of the central role that fire plays in their rituals. Their temples each have a consecrated fire that burns continuously – some of the fires have been kept alive for centuries.
In a community center in Karachi, priests are gathered around a small fire, reciting a prayer in an ancient dialect of Persian.
The priests wear masks covering their mouths and noses so that the fire is not desecrated by their breath or saliva.
According to tradition, a group of Zoroastrians arrived in South Asia over a thousand years ago, fleeing the Muslim conquest of Persia. The community prospered, especially as merchants.
The Parsi community in Karachi has always been a small minority, but it's left an unmistakable legacy. One of the most celebrated mayors of Karachi was a Parsi, serving for twelve years. Local buildings and schools named after prominent Parsi businessmen dot the old city.
But this legacy is now at risk.
Parsis have a lower birthrate than the national average. And there's more and more intermarriage.
So Mistree and Byramji's families were relieved that they both got married to Parsis.
Another major reason for the dwindling population in Karachi is migration to Western countries. Byramji says the majority of his relatives, for example, now live in the West — mostly in the US, Canada, or the UK.
"Everyone has left the country," he says. "I wouldn't even say that 10% are here now, and I would say 50% left in my life time."
In recent years, the motivation to leave Pakistan has been compounded by the extremely volatile political and security conditions, a sentiment reflected among both the young and old in the community.
Alla Rustomji, a fifty-five year old home-maker, says she would be happy to stay in Pakistan for the rest of her life, except for her children.
"They are in their early 20s," says Rustomji. "I am not very happy at all. I would like the first opportunity to get them out of the country. I'm sorry to say, though I love Pakistan, and I would like them to be here, but I do not see a very good future for them."
More than half the Parsi population in Karachi now is over fifty years old. The local clergy is aging, without anyone to replace them.
"At our fire temple, we have three priests. Two of them are more than 80 years old," says Shahveer Byramji, Zane Byramji's uncle and a managing trustee of one of the two fire temples in the city.
He says the only trained Zoroastrian priests are in India, and that they tell him they won't move to Pakistan "for all the money in the world."
Given the rate at which the population is declining, Shahveer Byramji says it's entirely possible that there soon won't be a Parsi presence in Karachi.
"Let's face it, we are a declining population. There's not much we can do about it, except for openly converting, which we're all against. So, it's a fact of life that we're a dying breed and let's just try to do the best we can with what we have."
Even for Tashan Mistree and Zane Byramji, the prospect of leaving Karachi isn't ruled out.
Over the generations their families have moved from Iran, through India and Pakistan, to North America and Australia.
Making another move, they say, is something their stock is used to.
"We did it a thousand years ago, so its not so hard now," says Mistree.

Germany and the Future of NATO Nuclear Sharing
Editor’s Note: This is an excerpt from “Policy Roundtable: The Future of Trans-Atlantic Nuclear Deterrence” from our sister publication, the Texas National Security Review. Be sure to check out the full roundtable.
Nuclear weapons have made a return to the top of the agenda of world politics. All major nuclear powers have begun to invest in new capabilities or to modernize their arsenals. At the same time, attempts to curb nuclear proliferation have had, at best, a limited effect, while new technologies may undermine the assumptions on which traditional nuclear strategies have been based. With old rules eroding and new challenges emerging, a “second nuclear age,” marked by more actors and likely less stability, is taking shape.
Nevertheless, critics of nuclear deterrence are gaining ground in Western societies. The abolitionist movement, spearheaded by the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, has stressed the humanitarian and environmental consequences of nuclear weapon use and has attempted to outlaw nuclear weapons. On Jan. 22, 2021, the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons entered into force. It is unclear what its consequences will be, as all existing nuclear-weapon states have rejected the treaty and most of the 50 participants are smaller countries. However, the treaty has already changed the debate in Western societies, particularly in Europe. What the late Michael Howard described in the early 1980s has become an even greater challenge today. The fact that engaging in deterrence is now seen by many as more dangerous than deterrence failure may result, as Howard wrote almost 40 years ago, from
the degree to which we Europeans have abandoned the primary responsibility for our defense to the United States; have come to take the deterrence provided by others for granted; and now assume that the dangers against which we once demanded reassurance only now exist in the fevered imagination of our protectors.
In other words, extended deterrence has become too successful, undermining its very foundations — the perceived need of protection.
Together, this twin challenge puts NATO leaders in a tough spot. They not only have to respond to new nuclear challenges posed by adversaries, but they need to deal with domestic constituencies that are skeptical of nuclear deterrence. While it was far from easy to shore up domestic support for nuclear deterrence during the Cold War, as the Euromissiles crisis in the early 1980s demonstrated, it will likely be even more difficult to do so today. The transatlantic alliance is more heterogeneous than in the past, with some allies promoting a strengthening of NATO’s nuclear posture and others flirting with supporters of the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. The ongoing debate about the future of NATO’s nuclear sharing arrangement suggests that NATO policy rests on shakier grounds than often assumed. There is thus a real risk of a new nuclear crisis that could severely hamper NATO’s ability to deter or even endanger the long-term health of the alliance.
Unfortunately, NATO leaders are woefully unprepared for such a crisis. For a long time, many of them have preferred not to talk too much about nuclear deterrence. Apart from the general nod to the existence of nuclear weapons and NATO’s self-understanding as a “nuclear alliance” in official documents or summit declarations, nuclear weapons have hardly been discussed publicly. For many, nuclear deterrence seemed to be a relic of the Cold War. And those who believed it was important not to scrap it often preferred not to discuss it, thinking it would be better to let sleeping dogs lie. The deterioration of NATO’s security environment, as well as the rise of the abolitionist movement in Western societies, have arguably made this strategy unsustainable.
Officially, of course, NATO member states have repeatedly underlined their commitment to nuclear deterrence. Most allies hosting U.S. non-strategic nuclear weapons have decided to invest in new dual-capable aircraft. Yet, both public opinion and significant portions of the elites in several NATO member states have become skeptical of NATO’s reliance on nuclear deterrence. According to a 2019 survey for the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons, public opinion in the four E.U. states that host U.S. nuclear weapons tends to support the removal of these weapons and is highly critical of the idea of equipping new fighter jets with a nuclear capacity.
The Risks of a German Exit
This view is particularly pronounced in Germany. A 2020 public opinion poll for the Munich Security Conference found that two-thirds (66 percent) of Germans supported the position that Germany should completely abandon nuclear deterrence. While the German government’s 2016 white paper on security policy — the Weißbuch, which is similar to America’s national security strategy — stresses the continued necessity of nuclear deterrence as long as nuclear weapons exist, it maintains that “the strategic nuclear capabilities of NATO, and in particular those of the United States, are the ultimate guarantee of the security of its members,” and underlines that “Germany continues to be an integral part of NATO’s nuclear policy and planning” through nuclear sharing, several prominent politicians have recently questioned the acquisition of new dual-capable aircraft needed to replace the ageing Tornados.
The junior partner in the current coalition, the Social Democratic Party, has repeatedly delayed a decision on a Tornado replacement, leading German Defence Minister Annegret Kramp-Karrenbauer to announce her plan to buy American F-18s without being sure whether the Bundestag would support it. The Green Party, which has surpassed the Social Democrats in the polls, has its roots in the peace movement and calls for “a Germany free of nuclear weapons” and “a broad public debate about outdated deterrence doctrines of the Cold War” in its most recent party manifesto (although influential parts of the party argue for some flexibility). As a parliamentary majority without the Greens or the Social Democrats is highly unlikely, this issue will almost certainly be a stumbling block in coalition negotiations after the elections for the Bundestag in September 2021.
Proponents of a withdrawal of U.S. non-strategic nuclear weapons from German soil argue that it would make Germany and Europe more secure and downplay the potential risks of such a decision. For them, Berlin’s refusal to continually host U.S. nuclear weapons and invest in the next generation of dual-capable aircraft would neither mean the end of nuclear sharing nor undermine NATO cohesion. They often try to distinguish between the so-called technical and political elements of nuclear sharing, arguing that ending the former would not necessarily affect the latter. Pointing to states such as Canada or Greece that once hosted U.S. nuclear weapons but got rid of them a long time ago and still participate in NATO’s Nuclear Planning Group, they argue that Germany would still be able to influence NATO nuclear strategy, that the United States would still be willing to protect NATO, and that NATO and the nuclear sharing arrangement as such would continue to exist and function well.
These arguments are based on rather heroic assumptions. First, they assume that it does not matter what you bring to the table. According to Rolf Mützenich, chairman of the Social Democrats in the Bundestag, a withdrawal of non-strategic nuclear weapons from Germany “would not result in the end of the American nuclear guarantee nor of Germany’s say in nuclear matters … as it would still be guaranteed through its membership in the Nuclear Planning Group.” Yet, it would be very surprising if those states that actively contributed to NATO’s nuclear sharing mission didn’t have more influence than other member states. After all, it is well known that those NATO members that provide troops to allied operations (in particular those that carry special risks) have more influence on NATO strategy for a given operation than other member states.
Second, they implicitly or explicitly argue that it would not make much of a difference for the security provider, the United States, whether their protégés participate in the arrangement or not. After all, they argue, the United States does not need the few non-strategic nuclear weapons on European soil to provide effective deterrence for the whole of NATO. According to the critics, these weapons are militarily useless, because there is no realistic scenario for their use. Yet, many military experts disagree. They maintain that even the current generation of jet fighters could successfully carry out their mission. Moreover, from this perspective, jet fighters carrying gravity bombs provide a lot of operational flexibility and are valuable tools for strategic communication.
It could also be argued that these non-strategic nuclear weapons never really had much military use in a narrow sense. Rather, they have always been political symbols, linking European security to American security. It is important to recognize, though, that “symbolic” does not mean politically unimportant. In contrast, nuclear sharing has also meant reassurance and risk sharing. However, as former U.S. ambassador to NATO, Ivo Daalder, notes, reassurance works both ways: “it’s a two-way street.” For the United States, it will thus make a huge political difference whether U.S. allies are willing to continue to share the risks associated with the nuclear umbrella. In an article for Der Spiegel, two experienced Europe hands, former Deputy Secretary of Defense Michèle Flournoy and former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Policy Jim Townsend, warned in no uncertain terms that “Germany walking away from this vow to share the nuclear burden, this expression of solidarity and risk sharing, strikes at the heart of the trans-Atlantic bargain.”
Third, the German proponents of a withdrawal of U.S. nuclear weapons underestimate the role of their own country. Germany, after all, is not just another member state. To begin with, the country’s role in NATO was a major reason for the very creation of this special arrangement. Its departure from NATO’s technical nuclear sharing arrangement would very likely trigger other “exits” and lead to transatlantic disruption. While the nuclear sharing arrangement may survive a Belgian or Dutch exit, it is hard to imagine that a German withdrawal would not bring about a general crisis of nuclear sharing. According to Flournoy and Townsend, “the bargain sustaining U.S. extended nuclear deterrence to Europe would collapse and the U.S. umbrella would essentially be decoupled from Europe.” At a time of upheaval for the transatlantic alliance and ongoing discussions about a potential “decoupling,” this promises to be a dangerous strategy with potentially far-reaching consequences.
The Road Ahead: How Can We Avoid Transatlantic Nuclear Disruption?
As the past few years have shown, a reactive communication strategy that tries to protect a very fragile elite consensus without rocking the boat is apparently not enough. Those in the strategic community who still believe that nuclear deterrence remains indispensable will have to make the case for it and be ready to engage in moral and ethical discussions. They should not be afraid of a debate with those who think that unilateral disarmament is the safer strategy. After all, the case can be made that supporting NATO cohesion and limited nuclear deterrence is the more promising path toward risk reduction, disarmament, and peaceful relations in the long run.
Most importantly, they need to be clear in communicating the risks of a unilateral end to nuclear sharing. They should also highlight the meager benefits of unilateral disarmament when other states are investing in new nuclear capabilities and doctrinal developments. In particular, Berlin’s allies need to pay attention to the German debate and stress the potential damage of Germany pushing for the withdrawal of U.S. non-strategic weapons. Germans may be less receptive to arguments about nuclear strategy, but they may listen to warnings that the end of nuclear sharing would present a major threat to multilateralism and could pave the way for a renationalization of security policy.
At the same time, proponents of NATO’s nuclear sharing arrangement will also have to make clear that they take seriously the valid points made by those concerned with the very real risks that come with nuclear weapons. For large parts of the Western public, it is far from self-evident today that relying on nuclear deterrence is indeed the best strategy to deal with a deteriorating security environment. Consequently, NATO leaders should engage with critics’ concerns that the alliance is just sticking with a dangerous relic from the Cold War because it does not know what else to do. They should also be open to thinking through potential alternatives to the current arrangement (which dates back to the 1960s) that would be able to fulfill the same role (i.e., serving as a link between U.S. and European security). And they need to find ways to combine efforts to maintain a necessary level of deterrence with a sincere commitment to nuclear risk reduction, arms control, and disarmament.
For instance, NATO leaders should be open to discussing proposals such as a five-year moratorium, during which neither Russia nor NATO would deploy new “destabilizing weapons to Europe until 2025,” giving NATO time to reassess the nuclear status quo and test Russia’s willingness to seriously consider mutual arms reductions. Likewise, following in the footsteps of NATO’s traditional dual-track strategy, they should also be open to adapting their capabilities if the security environment continues to erode further. Germany, in any case, would do well to discuss the difficult questions relating to the future of nuclear security within NATO, instead of incrementally phasing out its participation in the nuclear sharing arrangement.
After all, without NATO cohesion, neither deterrence nor security will be achieved. Alliance management and balancing different assurance and deterrence needs within NATO will be major challenges for the coming years. Given the very heterogeneous threat perceptions and policy preferences within the alliance, discussions on the nuclear components of NATO’s next strategic concept and on a potential update of the Deterrence and Defense Posture Review of 2012 will be difficult.
For a complete denial of deterrence, however, the transatlantic alliance will very likely be punished. A metaphor the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg once used in a completely different case may also apply to the nuclear umbrella: “throwing out [something] when it has worked and is continuing to work … is like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not getting wet.”

Kosovo’s parliament on Wednesday approved the creation of an international war crimes court to investigate allegations against ethnic Albanian guerillas during their conflict with Serbia in the late 1990s.
Pristina has been under pressure from the European Union to create the special court ever since a 2011 Council of Europe report alleged crimes including abductions, summary executions and, most controversially, the trafficking of prisoners’ organs by members of the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) during the 1998-99 war.
The report by the Council’s special rapporteur Dick Marty said the KLA, which fought Serbian armed forces during the conflict, had abused, tortured and killed 500 prisoners, mostly ethnic Serbs and Roma.
Prime Minister Hashim Thaci, who was a commander during the war, had strongly opposed the creation of the court, calling it “unjust and the greatest insult” to Kosovo.
But he insisted it was “the only option” to prevent the establishment of a UN-sponsored external tribunal into the allegations.
Parliament approved the creation of the court by 89 votes to 22.
Marty accused Kosovo’s top political leaders, including Thaci and several of his closest allies, including current deputy parliament speaker Xhavit Haliti, of involvement in wartime crimes.
The report also implicated Fatmir Limaj, a former KLA commander who has previously been acquitted of war crimes by the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) in The Hague.
The claims of illegal detentions, mafia-style murders and alleged organ trafficking were first brought up by Carla Del Ponte, the lead UN war crimes prosecutor, in a book she published in 2008.
Thaci and his government have denied the accusations and condemned Del Ponte and Marty’s claims.
The new war crimes court will be seated in Pristina, but “sensitive proceedings, including hearing of witnesses, would take place outside of the country in view of the nature of the allegations,” the EU mission in Kosovo said in a statement.
No date has yet been set for the court to be created.
