Given the Justice Department's stonewalling over Waco, it would not be a stretch of the imagination to see this happening yet again. Congress must act as a back-seat driver in this investigation or the DOJ, as usual, will fall asleep at the wheel. Up Irate Pakistani politicians called on President Clinton to avoid discussing Pakistan's ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treat during his visit to Islamabad this past weekend. In addition, the government has said it will wait to study the matter of whether the CTBT is a good idea, and it isn't all that enthused about the proposal. Nor should it be.
Bad ideas deserve a swift rejection world over.
