Truthout's Maya Schenwar reports: "The Bush administration hopes to push through two license-free arms sales treaties before the end of this Senate session.

The treaties, one with the United Kingdom and one with Australia, exemplify a growing trend of weakening restrictions on arms exports, even as fears of weapons proliferation intensify worldwide."
