6 Preface In writing about weapons of mass destruction (WMD) as a collective description of nuclear, biological and chemical weapons, I am aware that the term is far from exact. These weapons have different properties, relative lethalities, and areas of coverage; they can even be used in ways that might not be construed as massively destructive. As security issues, though, they remain all too prominent in the post-cold War era, reflecting the continuing political and security concerns of particular states and the widespread diffusion of scientific and technological expertise. This proliferation has raised legitimate anxieties about their usage in regional conflicts, as instruments of terror, and as countervailing factors to the overwhelming conventional weapons superiority of the United States, its allies, and any US-led coalitions. Although there are novel aspects to the contemporary phenomenon, as confirmed by the revelations about the capabilities of Iraq, the former Soviet Union and Aum Shinrikyo, I shall argue that proliferation has its roots in the Cold War, and that these weapons have a continuing political and military utility. I shall also claim that the challenge posed by these weapons is becoming more diverse and daunting as the technology, particularly of biological weapons, steadily evolves and as these weapons are generally much less conspicuous than the military power deployed by the Soviets during the Cold War. In examining how these weapons may be countered, I shall argue that neither diplomacy nor military strikes will suffice in and of themselves, and that there are no panaceas available. Strengthening international norms, arms control, and to a lesser extent export controls may help, especially if supported by the requisite political determination and an array of offensive and defensive military assets. The combination may bolster deterrence and persuade some states to abandon their WMD capabilities. I shall assert, though, that events in the 1990s have demonstrated the limitations of intrusive on-site inspections against a determined proliferator; the shortcomings of precision aerial bombardments; and the controversies aroused by attempts to resolve WMD crises by diplomatic endeavour and economic inducements. I shall argue that any effective response will depend upon consistent American leadership, with a broad measure of international support in matters of intelligence, diplomatic activity, and, if necessary, military effort. vi
7 Preface vii I should like to acknowledge my indebtedness to the many individuals and institutions who have assisted me in my research. I am particularly grateful to Dr Graham Pearson, Dr John Walker (Foreign and Commonwealth Office), Professor Adam Roberts, Professor Malcolm Dando, Professor John Gooch, Dr Rachel Utley, Dr Richard Latter and Donato Kiniger-Passigli (head of Media and Public Affairs Branch, External Affairs Division, Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons). I am also obliged to the staffs of the Australian High Commission, Resource Center (US Embassy London), the United Nations Information Centre, the Royal Institute of International Affairs, the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, the German Embassy, the Henry L. Stimson Center, the British Library Colindale, the Library of the Washington Times, and the inter-library loan staff of the University of Leeds. Like many other scholars, I am especially grateful to the website maintained by Ms Melinda Havers-Lamont (Chem-Bio Terror News of the Center for Nonproliferation Studies at the Washington DC office of the Monterey Institute of International Studies). As ever, I received enormous assistance and many useful briefings in the United States. I am indebted to Steve Bowman (Congressional Research Service), Dr Brad Roberts (Institute for Defense Analyses), Mr William W. Cawood (General Accounting Office), Dr Zachary S. Davis (US Arms Control and Disarmament Agency), Dr Randy J. Rydell (Professional Staff, Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs), General Walter L. Busbee (Deputy Assistant to the Secretary of Defense for Counterproliferation and Chemical/Biological Defense), Michael Moodie (Chemical and Biological Arms Control Institute), and Dr Ted Prociv (Chemical Demilitarisation). I am particularly grateful to Mrs Margaret Walkington and Mrs Christine Cascarino for their secretarial assistance in the preparation of this work. I remain indebted to Fiona, my wife, and Robert and Amanda for all their support and tolerance in the preparation of this manuscript. 27 April 1999 Edward M. Spiers
