There are at least two important reasons to dispose of US chemical warfare agents and munitions stockpiles without deliberate delay. One is the laudable intent to rid the world of these dangerous weapons of mass destruction. The other is the pragmatic observation that the aging stockpile is becoming increasingly dangerous for US citizens. In terms of laudable intent, the United States has an opportunity to lead by example, and as for the threat to its citizens, it has the obligation to act responsibly.
