Ridding the world of nuclear weapons has long been a cause of the pacifist left. But in the past few years mainstream politicians, retired military leaders and academic strategists have begun to share the same goal, albeit with a very different idea of how to get there. That is partly thanks to a campaigning body called Global Zero, which is holding its third annual summit in London next week. Despite its rapid ascent, Global Zero, as it prepares for next week's summit, is facing problems that it may find hard to overcome. Its plan's timeline already looks optimistic. Last year's Non-Proliferation Treaty review conference made little progress on bringing pressure to bear on Iran to mend its ways. For all Dmitry Medvedev's rhetorical support, Russia's armed forces are intent on becoming more dependent on nuclear weapons, not less. If progress is to be made, it will have to be at a far slower pace than Global Zero is urging.
