A few more nuclear gems:
- Ever since the US decided not to build a new tritium production reactor in South Carolina, tritium for nuclear bombs has been produced (legally) in "civilian" power reactors. The nuke power plant in your backyard may also be a bomb factory.
- The federal government has given loan guarantees for two new nuke power plants in NE Georgia. Coincidentally (?) the DOE's Savannah River Site (where the tritium for bombs can be extracted from irradiated nuclear targets) is right across the river from the proposed new plants. How convenient!
- The state of Texas recently approved a low-level radioactive waste storage site in west Texas. Right across the border in New Mexico is a uranium enrichment plant. Looks like the area could become a one-stop shopping area for nuke fuel and material for DU munitions, plus become the nation's trash can for nuclear waste. Way to go, Texas! By the time the ultimate impact of rampant methane fracking and nuclear waste "disposal" is felt, large parts of Texas could become an uninhabitable wasteland.
- Studies done on the debris left from the "battles" (i.e., massacres) in Fallujah, Iraq suggest that the DU munitions that were used by the US were not "depleted" after all but were enhanced with fission products. Who made these radiological weapons, and who authorized their use?
Although Obama ad-Dajjal may trick you into thinking that the US is pro-disarmament, the reality is that America needs and wants usable nuclear bombs and radiological weapons and has and will continue to spend vast sums of money to get them. In addition to wasting money, the production and use of these weapons will poison parts of our planet for eons to come.
Since Obama ad-Dajjal seems to believe that "war is peace", one could say that he has restarted the "Atoms for Peace" program. Who'da thunk that someday he would channel Dwight Eisenhower?
