I've just had a look at the new nuclear weapons documentary by 'The Weapons of Mass Destruction Commission'. It's pretty good for giving an overview of why we should be disarming and what the big problems are. You can view a shortened version of the film on their website.
If you're involved with a United Nations Association Branch why not order a copy to run as part of a film night? Maybe it could be part of a double-bill with Dr Strangelove? (great film!).
The New York Times has a pretty good article on America's decision to remove missiles from Eastern Europe. Basically they're saying that it demonstrates the USA's willingness to move towards nuclear disarmament. It's an interesting theory and the timing is very similar.
I also got sent this fictional news story about nuclear weapons in 'The Onion' (a US satirical paper). It's quite fun, so you might enjoy it.
