The reports, by Anthony Cordesman, CSIS Burke Chair in Strategy, make extensive use of unclassified intelligence reports by the Department of Defense, CIA, and National Intelligence Council. Cordesman has served in senior positions in the Departments of Defense, State, and Energy, and in the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. 'President Bush has singled out the world's most dangerous proliferators by name,' said Cordesman. 'The evidence regarding what they are doing is complex and contradictory, but the patterns of proliferation in all three countries are undeniable and clearly pose a growing threat to U.S. security interests. At the same time, we must recognize that all three countries have very different regimes, are proliferating in different ways, and pose different risks. Equally important, their activities are only part of an even more threatening pattern of regional proliferation in the Middle East, East Asia, and South Asia.
