by internal more often than
external means, finds its freedom
under attack
There is no single simple
policy with which to meet this
challenge. Experience has taught
us that no one nation has the
power or the wisdom to solve all

does not always increase our
security -- that any initiative
carries with it the risk of
temporary defeat -- that nuclear
weapons cannot prevent subversion --
