The Study Group deserves no credit for unearthing this document.  We didn’t dig it up, and it was not given to us with the idea that we would publish it.  Quite the contrary.  We have come to believe, however, that it is our responsibility to make it availability in its entirety, to do so rapidly (e.g. before any war in Iraq) -- and to do so from a position outside Washington, DC in order to enhance the vitality and diversity of debate about U.S. nuclear weapons.
