In 1984, the Aspen Strategy Group (ASG) was founded formally as a policy program of The Aspen Institute, concentrating on strategic relations and arms control issues, with particular emphasis on the U.S.-Soviet relationship.
The ASG is committed to identifying topics that provide appropriate assessments of American national interest while taking into account the way these interests have evolved in our pluralistic world.
The mission of the new ASG has developed into examinations of new foreign policy trends outside the Cold War dichotomies of friends and foes and toward transnational, or multifaceted issues blending traditionally foreign and domestic subjects.

Third, the proponents of SDI, from the president to the secretary of defense to supporters in the public debate, all have made the claim that SDI constitutes a superior moral policy to that of deterrence as we have known it in the nuclear age.
The Aspen Strategy Group Report argues that meeting the administration's own criteria of survivability and cost-effectiveness would effectively rule out any deployment of space-based defenses until well into the 1990s.
The Aspen Group advocates a SDI research program, but one carried out within the limits of the ABM Treaty (strictly interpreted) and joined with an arms control policy pursuing deep cuts in offensive weapons.

 The Washington Note
Concerning the suggestion by the NSC official that your Aspen council is premature, the suggestion should come as no surprise.
Certainly, a land invasion of Iran is inconceivable, but a potent bombing attack of unprecedented force (possibly involving tactical nuclear armaments) would inflict sufficient damage to forecast the deterrence of serious retaliation by Iran, retaliation which this administration is too arrogant to imagine as likely if not certain.
I would be more encouraged if the Aspen meeting had started with the question.."Why would Iran want to attack the US anyway".
