Currently terrorist groups show no qualm in the active pursuit of nuclear weapons. In this lecture presented by the University Channel, Nuclear Threat Initiative (NIT) spokewoman Laura Holgate provides a historical record of how the world's nuclear powers have maintained their stockpiles and then illustrates how any lapse in current security could have dire consequences.
Holgate finally discusses what the NIT has done to create a database of who wants weapons, who could provide them, and what can be done to assure they do not succeed. This lecture is available on MP3 download, MPEG4 video download, and streaming video.
