"Robert McNamara is worried. He knows how close we've come. His counsel helped the Kennedy administration avert nuclear catastrophe during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Today [2005], he believes the United States must no longer rely on nuclear weapons as a foreign-policy tool. To do so is immoral, illegal, and dreadfully dangerous." (FOREIGN POLICY) Robert S. McNamara, U.S. secretary of defense from 1961 to 1968, provides his views on U.S. nuclear policy.
