Simple policy would calm nuclear threats

Seventy-four years ago, America became the first and only country to use nuclear weapons against another country, in the bombings of Japanese cities Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Today, with 15,000 nuclear weapons around the world, many with explosive yields much greater than the two dropped in 1945, the threat of nuclear war remains unacceptably high.

The reality is that a "No First Use" policy for the United States would simply state the U.S. will not initiate a nuclear war.
