Obama Goes Nuclear

Let's just hope he never uses his, huh?

Let's give you an appetizer of URANIUM to start, 'eh?

"EPA to rebuild tainted Navajo homes" by Associated Press | June 15, 2009

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - The federal government plans to spend as much as $3 million a year to demolish and rebuild structures in the Navajo Nation that are contaminated with uranium.

Maybe nuclear isn't such a good idea after all, huh?

Cold War-era mining of the radioactive substance has left a legacy of disease and death across the 27,000-square-mile Navajo reservation, which spans Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah....

Yeah, the WARS are COSTING YOU in ways you NEVER EVEN THOUGHT OF, AmeriKa -- and ON and ON the GO!!

Between the 1940s and the '80s, millions of tons of uranium ore were mined on the reservation and many Navajos built their homes with chunks of uranium ore and mill tailings. They were unaware of the dangers....

But CERTAINLY THIS GOVERNMENT would have TOLD THEM, huh?

"Obama seeks global uranium fuel bank; Plan could counter Iran's weapon quest" by Bryan Bender, Globe Staff | June 8, 2009

Yeah, good thing Iran isn't making a bomb, but....


WASHINGTON - As part of a new strategy to stop Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons, President Obama plans to seek the creation of the first-ever international supply of uranium that would allow nations to obtain fuel for civilian nuclear reactors but limit the capacity to make bombs, according to senior administration officials.

That going to include us and Israel, or.... ?

(Answer: no, we are going to
continue to develop more with no inspection, etc, etc)

And I SEE NOTHING NEW, do you?


Many arms-control specialists consider the idea of a "fuel bank" controlled by the International Atomic Energy Agency a key way to test the sincerity of Iranian leaders, who maintain that their enrichment program is only for civilian use and necessary because they cannot be assured of energy supplies from other countries.

Why should THEY have to PROVE THEIR SINCERITY?

1. Last Spring, Rose Gottemoeller, an assistant secretary of state and Washington's chief nuclear arms negotiator, asked Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Israel refused.

2. The United Nations passed a resolution calling on Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and to submit to inspections. Israel refused.

3. The IAEA asked Israel to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and to submit to inspections. Israel refused.

4. Iran's formal notification to the IAEA of the planned construction of the backup fuel-rod facility underscores that Iran is playing by the rules of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty which Iran has signed.

5. Iran allows IAEA inspections of all its facilities.

6. The IAEA and all 16 United States Intelligence Agencies are unanimous in agreement that Iran is not building and does not possess nuclear weapons.

Well, HOW ABOUT THAT, America!

They

Why we WORRIED about
IRAN, anyway?

Latest related: Obama Moves Missiles Into Middle East

Yup, NOTHING NEW at ALL!

Many specialists believe an internationally managed fuel bank could also remove the "peaceful use" justification for other nations that might be trying to use a civilian nuclear program as cover to make nuclear weapons.

Can you SMELL the STINKING STENCH of HYPOCRISY, world?

"We want to give the Iranians an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to peaceful nuclear energy and serve as a new model," said a top administration official involved in crafting arms-control policy. "What we can do is create a system of incentives where, as a practical matter for countries that want nuclear power, the best way to obtain their fuel and to handle fuel services is through a new international architecture."

ISRAEL!

I'm NOT GOING TO TYPE IT AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

Btw, WHO the FUCK are WE to LECTURE the WORLD, the ONLY NATION that has USED THEM -- TWICE!!!!!

The IAEA, the United Nations' nuclear watchdog, is also pursuing the fuel-bank idea, and in a pair of reports Friday highlighted the urgency of the issue.

This was over 6 months ago. Real urgent, huh?

It said that Iran has expanded the number of centrifuges enriching uranium, making it more difficult for UN inspectors to keep track of the nation's disputed nuclear program.

Yup, it's ALWAYS the SAME OLD AGENDA-PUSHING BULLS*** month after month!

The agency also said it had discovered traces of processed uranium at a second site in Syria, where Israel in 2007 bombed a North Korean-designed reactor that US intelligence says was meant to produce weapons-grade plutonium.

SICK of the USraeli SET-UPS and LIES, yet?

Obama has outlined a goal of ridding the world of nuclear weapons....

PFFFFT!

HOT FART MIST is EASY (especially when we are going ahead with ours)!!

The uranium fuel bank's.... basic idea is to have a relatively small, but guaranteed supply of low-enriched uranium available as a backup should a country's supplies of civilian nuclear fuel from other nations be cut off for political or other reasons. Of the dozen or so countries that now can enrich uranium, several - such as Brazil and South Africa - do so to guard against such disruptions, not to build nuclear weapons.

How come no uproar wit them?You know, I look at ISRAEL'S ENEMIES LIST and, well, it's the SAME as the "NON-PROLIFERATION" concerns of Amerika!!! Huh, HOW ABOUT THAT?!!!!

The most advanced proposal calls for the IAEA to maintain a uranium supply for purchase by member states. The agency has already received $150 million in pledges from various countries and the Washington-based Nuclear Threat Initiative, a nonpartisan arms-control advocacy group. The agency's 35-member board of governors is scheduled to begin debating the issue at a meeting later this month. Russia and Kazakhstan have offered to house an agency-supervised fuel bank, while Germany has called for the creation of a multinational enrichment company under the auspices of the IAEA.

"This is an idea that has pretty broad support," said Daryl G. Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, a nonpartisan Washington think tank. "It addresses a problem that has been around for a long time. Nations that can make low-enriched uranium for nuclear power can use the same industrial capacity to make highly enriched uranium" for nuclear weapons.

But ONLY a PROBLEM now that IRAN wants NUCLEAR POWER!!!

Obama's support for the idea dates to his days as a senator from Illinois, when he cosponsored legislation calling for a US commitment to a fuel bank. The senior administration official, who was not authorized to speak publicly about internal deliberations, said Obama plans to discuss the issue with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev at a summit in Moscow next month.

Related: The Obama You Don't Know

And that was MANY, MANY YEARS ago!!!

But there remain significant political and economic hurdles to the fuel bank's creation, according to several US and European officials and nonproliferation specialists.

Yeah, SOMEHOW I KEW SOME SNAG was coming!!

For example, some sectors of the nuclear power industry fear losing customers or profits if there is a new international provider of uranium. There are four main providers that sell nuclear energy fuel, one in Russia, one in the United States, one in France, and a German-British-Dutch consortium. But they can sell only to countries approved by their governments.

Oh, I JUST CAUGHT ANOTHER MASSIVE WHIFF of STENCH HYPOCRISY and S*** LIES!!!

You ARE AWARE that the FRENCH controlled the "yellowcake" that Saddam was forged to have wanted, right?

"Some in the industry are concerned that the material in the fuel bank may take away clients from them or the material could be dumped on the market [and] temporarily depress prices," said a European diplomat directly involved in the IAEA deliberations who was not authorized by his government to speak publicly....

And thus depress a lot of nuclear-energy executives.

There is also skepticism from some non-nuclear nations who fear the move is designed to deprive them of their right under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty to develop their own civilian nuclear power industries.

Yeah, THEY KNOW -- and it is why the GET only ONE PARAGRAPH in the war-promoting, agenda-pushing War Daily Sunday feature!

But an IAEA official insists the fuel bank would not have that effect. "No one is talking about restricting the rights of any country," said the official, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the issue. Indeed, many specialists predict Iran will still insist on enriching uranium even with an international supply available for its nuclear reactors. But such a decision by Tehran would be new evidence that it has military uses in mind for its nuclear program and help build more international pressure to punish it.

Bye, Glob.

You guys have sucked for so long, the relationship has been "poisoned" if you will.

F***ing s*** sheet is radioactive, and I'm going nowhere near it today.

Iran's refusal to take advantage of the fuel bank "may give the US and other countries a stronger argument that Iran's program is really designed to give them a nuclear weapon potential," Kimball said.

And WHO COULD BLAME THEM after what they SAW NEXT DOOR in IRAQ -- the OTHER GUY on top of lots of oil with NO BOMB?!!

Btw, ANYONE INVADE NORTH KOREA yet?

CASE CLOSED!

And ANOTHER SUNDAY BS SPECIAL!!!!


"Obama presses review of nuclear strategy; Pentagon is rethinking the unthinkable: Making major changes to Cold War arsenal" by Bryan Bender, Globe Staff | January 3, 2010

CHARLIE MISSILE ALERT FACILITY, Mont. - It is a routine that is virtually unchanged from the 1960s. The targets, most of them in Russia, also remain largely unchanged from the Cold War. And there are few signs that will change anytime soon.

“We’re not going anywhere for decades to come....’’

But top US officials are now questioning why the United States still pursues a strategy based on the ability to annihilate its former foe. In a thorough review expected to be completed early this year, the size, structure, and even the very mission of America’s nuclear arsenal are being reconsidered as part of President Obama’s pledge to reduce the role of the world’s most deadly weapons.

Pffft!

I'll start believing this stuff when this guy stomps dropping missiles into houses.

Obama has already reached a tentative agreement with Russia to reduce the number of warheads on both sides from about 2,200 to between 1,500 and 1,675 in the next several years, while also slashing the missiles and submarines designed to carry them to between 500 and 1,000. The so-called Nuclear Posture Review, led by the Pentagon, could recommend going even further, to 1,000 warheads or fewer, top administration officials have told Congress.

Related: Russia upbeat on arms talks with US

Also see: Russian Rapprochement?

Grain of salt, please.

The review is shaping up to be a major showdown for Obama this year.

And we all see how he does in those. Did you just hear a cave-in?

It is taking on some of the most sacred cows of the nuclear program. For the first time, influential voices, including a former top nuclear commander and senior Obama advisers, are proposing that one leg of the nuclear arms “triad’’ - a $30 billion-a-year enterprise made up of land-, air-, and sea-based weapons - be eliminated.

Another historic change under consideration is adopting a “no-first-use’’ policy, a public declaration stating the United States would not use nuclear weapons first, a step long advocated by arms control advocates who believe it would reduce the incentive for other nations to develop nuclear weapons.

I thought we ALREADY HAD ONE because MY LEADERS TOLD ME THAT, so WTF?!!! Oh, the LYING HYPOCRISY is enough to KNOCK YOU OUT!

NOW you know WHY Korea BUILT a BOMB, folks!!!

Also on the table, the officials say, is explicitly limiting the nuclear arsenal’s mission to deterring other nuclear weapons - not chemical or biological attacks or halting a massive conventional military assault, as current policy stipulates....

Potential threats studied

The review is assessing the potential threats over the next decade that would require nuclear weapons, seeking to match the arsenal and strategy to emerging dangers like North Korea, a rising China, and nuclear terrorism - and away from the far less likely massive nuclear exchange with Russia, according to several administration officials who are familiar with the review....

Yet as a recent visit to several nuclear bases demonstrated, the nuclear weapons enterprise is one of the most entrenched in the national security bureaucracy.

Yeah, the possible annihilation of the planet is an "ENTERPRISE" to the ELITES and their MSM MOUTHPIECES!!

How DISGUSTINGLY ILL!!!


Strong opposition to major changes is building in the Pentagon and Congress as military officers and defense contractors with a major stake prepare to fight deep cuts to land-based nuclear weapons or the fleet of nuclear bombers, the mostly likely targets of reduction, according to interviews with current and former commanders, top officials, and leading specialists.

And WE KNOW WHO WIN$ tho$e ROUND$, don't we?

Many also express fear that reducing the arsenal too much will be destabilizing at a time when Russia, China, and other nations are modernizing their inventories of nuclear weapons and the United States is not.

Yeah, always KEEP THE fear going with a SUNDAY FRONT-PAGE FEATURE of LIES!!!

See:
Spy Satellite Shit and Rods From God

U.S. Seeks New Nukes

What more is there to say about the Boston Globe, 'eh?

So the "news" is an AGENDA-PUSHING LIE that FITS the MOMENT, huh?

Submarines favored

The ability of a behemoth submarine like the USS Maryland to disappear beneath the waves makes it and 13 other Navy “boomers,’’ capable of carrying 24 Trident nuclear missiles each, the least likely to be recommended for cuts, military officials and private analysts said.

Nearly 600 feet long and four stories high, the “Fighting Mary’’ was impossible to miss when it was docked at the mouth of the St. Mary’s River in southeastern Georgia in late November. But enemies have almost no way of knowing its location after it leaves port, making the sub nearly invulnerable to attack. And it can remain at sea for extended periods: Last year, over several deployments, the Maryland was underway a total of nearly nine months out of the year.

“They get underway and disappear for all intents and purposes,’’ Rear Admiral Barry Brunner, commander of Submarine Group 10, said in a recent interview at his headquarters in Kings Bay, Ga. At any given time, four of the subs are on patrol, two of them ready in under an hour to launch their missiles at targets as far as 4,000 miles away. Six are stationed in Georgia, eight in Washington State.

But it is the OTHER GUY who DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ONE that is the THREAT!!!!

Wake the F*** UP, AmeriKa!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some arms control groups believe US security interests could be met with fewer submarines and various studies have recommended as few as eight or nine, which would save billions of dollars. Already the Navy has plans to reduce the fleet to 12 by 2030 as it replaces the submarines with a new model. But for war planners, they also bring more bang for the buck....

Oh, yeah, YOU BANKRUPT Amurkns are PAYING FOR ALL THIS as you country goes to shit!!!!!!

Ah, the COSTS of MILITARISM and EMPIRE, 'eh?

A recent study by the Air Force Association, the main advocacy group for the Air Force and not traditionally the biggest Navy booster, concluded that if the United States were to choose to deploy its nuclear weapons on only one platform, it should keep the submarines. It was a remarkable statement given the traditional of interservice rivalries in among the branches of the military.

Bombers could go

The Air Force’s 114 long-range nuclear bombers - including the B-52 and B-2 stealth bombers and more than 1,000 nuclear missiles - are believed to be the most vulnerable of the three legs of the triad.

Some former commanders and a growing number of specialists contend they have far less military value now that an all-out nuclear war with Russia is unlikely. Among them is retired General Eugene Habiger, former commander of the US Strategic Command, which oversees all US nuclear weapons, and the man who until 1998 was responsible for America’s nuclear war plan.“I would recommend giving up the bomber leg,’’ he said in an interview.

The bomber force emerged with the dawn of the nuclear age, when a pair of B-29 bombers dropped the atomic bombs on Japan in the closing days of World War II, destroying Hiroshima and Nagasaki and killing hundreds of thousands of people.

And NO APOLOGY, huh?

After 1945, bombers were the sole element of America’s nuclear deterrent, until intercontinental ballistic missiles and nuclear-armed submarines were introduced in 1959. Their crews are still ready to be in the air within hours, officials said, though the exact time needed to launch them is classified. “We still maintain the same capacity we had during the Cold War,’’ said Colonel Steven Basham, commander of the Second Bomb Wing at Barksdale Air Force Base in Louisiana.

Related:

"Missing" Nukes? Two years ago, six nuclear armed weapons were attached to the wings of a B-52 bomber and flown from North Dakota to Barksdale, the USAF staging base for Middle East operations. This took place in contradiction to all laws and all military procedures. Military experts could not recall a single incident of this kind ever taking place. Two years later, the event has still not been credibly unexplained. And of the six that were put on the plane in North Dakota, only five have been fully accounted for."

So WHICH US CITY is going to go poof, readers?

But sustaining the bomber leg will require billions of dollars in new investments, according to the Air Force. The B-52s, which make up the majority of the bomber fleet, are more than four decades old. The bombers used by Basham’s Second Bomb Wing were built in 1960 and 1961. The cruise missiles carried by the B-52s first came into service in 1962 and there is no plan for a replacement. There are other drawbacks. The recent study published by the Air Force Association concluded that land-based missiles and nuclear submarines are more likely to survive a devastating first strike than bombers. The study, to the surprise of many longtime observers, recommended gradually retiring the nuclear bomber force.

I'm sure they will keep it around like the military does everything.

Nonetheless, there remains fierce resistance to scrapping the nuclear bombers both inside and outside the Air Force. Supporters assert that, unlike land-based missiles already on alert in fixed locations or nuclear subs that must remain undetected, bombers, by being sent aloft, can signal US intent to use nuclear weapons to help defuse a possible crisis, such as with North Korea or Iran.

In other words, it is the only nuclear saber that can be rattled.

Do these PSYCHOPATHS have ANY IDEA how INSANE that SOUNDS -- and WHAT IT LOOKS like to the REST of the WORLD?!

“Rolling the bomber fleet onto the flight line could be the first step in escalation,’’ said Adam B. Lowther, a faculty researcher at the Air Force Research Institute at Maxwell Air Force Base in Alabama. There are other military arguments to support maintaining the bomber leg. For example, only bombers are currently outfitted to carry the special version of B61 nuclear bomb designed to strike deeply buried targets, which some assert might be needed to take out the nuclear program of a threatening nation or terrorist group.

So WHEN is OBAMA FIRING THEM OFF, Glob?

And I THOUGHT this was an article on WEAPONS CONTROL?

“Bombers are and will remain critical components of the strategic nuclear triad because they possess great flexibility and versatility,’’ said General Frank Klotz, commander of the Air Force Global Strike Command at Barksdale Air Force Base.

There is also likely to be significant political opposition. Like the land-based missile and submarine forces, the bombers have strong political backers in the states where they are located, including Louisiana, Missouri, and North Dakota.

Missiles under review

Even if it moves to eliminate the bomber leg of the triad, the Obama administration, is almost certainly going to have cut some of 450 intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs, now spread across Montana, North Dakota, and Wyoming if it wants to bring the US arsenal down to 1,000 warheads or less.

But even members of his own party - including senators he will need to pass his proposed arms control treaty with Russia - could stand in his way.

I give up, reader. The quicker the empire falls the better.

“While we may not oppose modifications or some reductions to our nuclear force, we are certain that the ICBM force as currently constituted provides an extraordinary benefit to our national security while delivering high value to the taxpayer,’’ six Democratic and five Republicans senators told Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates in a letter last fall.

Yeah, all the COST OVERRUNS and LIES were WELL WORTH IT, 'eh, BOB?!!!!!!!!

The Minuteman III missiles, which can travel more than 6,000 miles and hit their targets in 30 minutes, are considered the most reliable of all three legs of the triad. The missile crews have the most reliable communications with the president - the only person who can order a nuclear launch - and 99 percent of the missiles are traditionally on alert ready to launch within minutes.

The silos and launch centers, meanwhile, are disbursed and hardened against attack, requiring a large-scale first strike by Russia to take them out. An adversary “would have to expend everything they have,’’ said Colonel Michael Fortney, commander of the 341st Missile Wing at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana. The missile wing, which maintains and operates 150 missile silos spread across 14,000 square miles of rolling hills and steep plateaus, is responsible for 15 missile alert centers, each ready to launch at least 10 missiles.

I'm feeling safer, aren't you?

Fortney, like many senior military officers interviewed for this story, said he is prepared to work under a new nuclear policy regime, but warned that as the United States goes to lower numbers of warheads it means that every weapon left becomes more important to ensure that the nuclear arsenal maintains its capability and credibility to deter potential enemies. That is likely to require new investments in missiles and warheads, he suggested. “There is somewhat of a greater sense of urgency,’’ he said, “to make sure that the systems stay on alert.’’

(Blog editor falls of chair and on to floor after being knocked out by outrageous stench of U.S. hypocrisy. I never want to hear shit-hole U.S. leaders criticizing anyone but Israel. Un-flipping-real)

Threats variable

Related: Why War is a Good Investment

Huh.

The nuclear review is taking place as threats against the United States, from former enemies, rogue nations, and potential terrorists, remain in flux. Even the vestiges of the old Soviet Army seemed to stir recently, giving ammunition to those who want to keep the nuclear force closer to its current levels.

We can only hope, huh?

In a November exercise code-named “West,’’ 13,000 Russian and Belorussian troops practiced putting down a popular uprising and storming a beachhead. Then, according to local media reports, the Russian Air Force simulated a nuclear attack on Poland.

Of course, when USRAEL CONDUCTS WAR GAMES it is NO PROBLEM, NO PROBLEM!!!!

Word of the exercise immediately set off alarm bells in Warsaw, which had been under Soviet domination for 40 years but is now a member of the US-led NATO military alliance. It also underscored that Obama’s plans to deemphasize nuclear weapons are not necessarily held by other nuclear powers.

PFFFT!

He's "denooklarizing" is he?

PFFFFFFT!

Bye, bye, Glob!

“The Russian leadership is absolutely committed to their nuclear weapons,’’ said C. Franklin Miller, a former National Security Council official who is now an unpaid adviser to the US Strategic Command, the military headquarters based in Nebraska that oversees all US nuclear weapons. “The Chinese certainly believe in their arsenal.’’

Well, from what I read above SO ARE WE!!!

Miller and others also point out that Russia also has a 10-to-1 advantage over the United States in so-called “tactical’’ nuclear weapons, smaller bombs that could be used on the battlefield to take out large formations of troops. Those weapons are not covered in the proposed arms reduction treaty with Russia, although senior administration officials have said they intend to include them in future negotiations.

That's strange; I was GIVEN the IMPRESSION that Russia is weak.

And I'm not sure I'm buying those war-promoting, agenda-pushing MSM numbers, either.

Indeed, the actions of other nuclear weapons states have some concerned that the United States could set off a new nuclear arms race if it cuts its arsenal to 1,000 weapons or fewer.

Yeah, so BY ALL MEANS KEEP 'EM!!!

Henry Sokolski, director of the Nonproliferation Policy Education Center and a member of a high-level commission that advises the government on weapons of mass destruction, has argued that reducing the US arsenal dramatically could lead China or other powers that now have hundreds of nuclear weapons to try to reach parity by building up their arsenals - what he calls the destabilizing prospect of a “packed nuclear crowd.’’

Notice how ISRAEL NEVER COMES UP in my ZIONIST WAR DAILY?!!

But others, like Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, a Washington think tank and leading advocate of disarmament, note that Russia and the United States have 95 percent of the world’s nuclear arms and that there would be plenty of warning if a country like China, which is estimated to have 350 weapons, tried to catch up.

Yeah, save the "peace" guy and the FACTS for the FINAL PARAGRAPHS, Globe!

Pffft!

Btw, I believe the KOREANS already MADE THAT POINT!

“The United States and Russia each deploy more than 2,000 strategic warheads, most of which exist only to deter a massive nuclear attack by the other,’’ he said. “No other country possesses more than 300 nuclear warheads, and China currently has fewer than 30 nuclear-armed missiles capable of striking the continental United States.’’

Then WHAT is all the HUBBUB, bub!?

--more--"

Yeah, and if the talks don't work out, the globalists Obama fronts for have another plan:

USE THEM!!!

"an international body that would control the world's remaining nuclear weapons
and be empowered to use them on rogue nations"

This information was found in the IDEAS section, folks.

I guess that makes the post below
concerning Olmert and Bush very relevant, huh?

"No nukes; Once a quixotic slogan, the idea of actually dismantling every nuclear weapon is attracting mainstream policy thinkers" by Drake Bennett | November 23, 2008


FOR MANY AMERICANS, the idea of a world without nuclear weapons is a bit like the idea of a world without war or disease - it would be nice, but, contra John Lennon, it's hard to imagine.

Yup, insult the peace person in the first paragraph, Zionist scumbag!


That's not to say lots of people haven't devoted themselves to the cause. As the atomic age was dawning, Gandhi was already demanding its end, and today Pope Benedict XVI echoes that call. A host of international organizations, from Greenpeace to Mayors for Peace to the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament to the German Green Party, are dedicated to the abolition of nuclear weapons. Many of them have been at it for decades. The movement, however, has always carried utopian associations, and been conflated in the popular imagination with pacifism.

Yeah, and WHOSE TERMS were those, you piece of shit, mass-murdering, war-promoting scitte sheet?!

Just wait, readers, there are MORE INSULTS COMING!!!!


The leaders of the world's nuclear powers, their global stature buttressed by their atomic arsenals, have, with a few exceptions, shown little real interest in the idea. This is changing. Total nuclear disarmament - "getting to zero" in the arms-control argot - has become a mainstream cause. Voices from the heights of the American foreign policy establishment have begun to argue that, in a world of inevitably unruly globalization, increasing interest in nuclear energy, incomplete alliances, ambitious suicide terrorists, and ever-present human fallibility, it will never be enough to improve controls on the world's nuclear weapons, or to reduce their numbers. We have to commit to eliminating them altogether.

Oh, the GLOBALISTS WHO BUILT all the weapons are now calling for their ELIMINATION!!? Well, what a WASTE of TIME, MONEY, and RESOURCES, huh? And NOW that the GLOBAL MURDERERS are FOR this PEACE IDEA, the fucking stink Zionist press is endorsing it!! Yeah, I HAVE HAD IT with the PIECE of SHIT Amerikan MSM!!!


These arguments are being made not by popes and mahatmas and Greens but by former secretaries of state and secretaries of defense, by generals and nuclear scientists, Democrats and Republicans. The leaders of the new no-nuke movement are George Shultz, Henry Kissinger, William Perry, and Sam Nunn, four of the most respected figures in American foreign policy circles. Over the past two years, they have, in speeches, at arms-control conferences and, most prominently, in two widely circulated op-ed pieces, lent their authority to an idea that is still seen as fairly radical....

All sounds good so far, right? The Globalist pukes have seen the light!!!


****************
Rather than recoiling in horror, much of the foreign policy establishment has embraced the abolitionist idea. In one form or another, former high-ranking officials including Colin Powell, Madeleine Albright, James A. Baker III, Zbigniew Brzezinski, William Cohen, Lawrence Eagleburger, Anthony Lake and Robert McNamara, among others, have signed on to the cause.

Now why am I suddenly finding myself opposed? And is the DISARMAMENT going to INCLUDE ISRAEL, or no? The word "Israel" does NOT APPERA in this article!!!


Today's abolitionists argue that the international picture has changed dramatically.... In place of an expansionist Soviet Union, one of the greatest threats to the United States today is a suicide terrorist with a crude nuclear device in a truck, or on a motorboat in a big-city harbor....

You HAVE BEEN WARNED, AmeriKa!!!!!

So when is the FALSE-FLAG NUKING of an American city coming?


****************

One suggestion is to create a single international body, with a sweeping global mandate, that would control and track all of the world's fissile material, no matter its form - something like the current-day International Atomic Energy Agency, but far larger and better-funded. Such a body would be able to spot any diversions to potential terrorists, and would trace and verify cuts in stockpiles.

Yup, let's put ll the nuclear material in the hands of the GLOBALIST MASTERS of this planet!!!

Yup, so even there alleged "good intentions" are a SELFISH FORM of RULING!!!!

When will the world (and Americans) learn that THESE LEADERS DON'T GIVE a SHIT about you?


The other major question is what, if anything, countries can use as a deterrent in place of nuclear missiles. (This is less of a worry for the United States than other countries - in a nuclear-free world our conventional military dominance would be all the more pronounced.)

Oh, yeah, so if the world disarms, the U.S is left in the advantageous position, huh? Okay, I get it now! This isn't about some Globalist murderers being altruistic and caring about the world; this is about POWER!! Please, WAKE UP, AmeriKA!!!!

Maybe this will wake you:


In a paper published this summer, George Perkovich and James Acton, two nuclear proliferation experts at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, weighed two options. One was an international body that would control the world's remaining nuclear weapons and be empowered to use them on rogue nations....

Did you GET THAT, readers? Can you BELIEVE IT?


Words are not enough to explain my outrage and disgust at even the THOUGHT of such a thing!!!!!

Can we turn them on Israel and blow that little piece of shit off the face of this planet then?

And remember, readers, the UNITED STATES is the ONLY REGIME to EVER USE THEM IN WAR TIME!!!

We have NO STANDING with which to SPEAK!!!!!

"US wants tough bioweapons ban, but no verification" by Elaine Engeler, Associated Press | December 10, 2009

GENEVA - The United States unveiled a strategy yesterday to crack down on biological weapons that doesn’t include any international enforcement, continuing the Bush administration’s rejection of binding verification plans.

Oh, SOME CHANGE, 'eh, AmeriKa!!

That's why we dislike the new man so much -- even faster than Georgie!

Ellen Tauscher, the US undersecretary of state for arms control, said she wanted to revitalize the Biological Weapons Convention, which Washington walked out of in 2001 when it rejected international monitoring of military and pharmaceutical research....

Does she know she is speaking s***, or does it just fall out the mouth?

At the time, Washington said the proposed inspection system would not work and would expose US secrets to enemies and rivals.

But NO PROBLEM when it is ISRAEL STEALING OUR SECRETS!!!

Tauscher noted that the danger from biological agents has grown with the development of new science and global terrorism.

Sigh. Sick of the s***, really am.

Tibor Toth, a Hungarian diplomat who chaired the biological talks until their 2001 collapse, said the US support was significant. “The threat is not diminishing,’’ he told the AP by telephone from Vienna, adding that new dangers from biological weapons would need new approaches.

Yeah, the false-flag attack should be hereby 2013 or sooner, I heard.

William Irwin, the state’s radiological health chief, said that readings of 1 million to 2 million picocuries per liter were found in a concrete trench several hundred feet from the test well where tritium was reported on Jan. 7. He said that it was not known whether the latest finding could have been caused by the same leak that caused the earlier elevated reading. Meanwhile, state officials are calling for the state Health Department to conduct its own investigation and not rely on information from Vermont Yankee (AP)."

Hey, it's not like Yankee wouldn't have any $elf-$erving financial intere$t$ at $take or anything.


"Agency grills Vermont Yankee about leak

The Vermont Public Service Board is sharply questioning sworn statements made by the owners of the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant about underground piping at its Vernon facility. In an unusual opening statement before a hearing yesterday, the agency's chairman, James Volz, said it appeared Entergy Nuclear "may have provided false information for an extended period time."

No! You're kidding?

The board has told Entergy it would need to go back through application for a 20-year license extension and correct any inaccurate information.

Yeah, we are going to TRUST YOU now!


The hearing was held nearly three weeks after it was announced that radioactive tritium was found to have been leaking at the plant, possibly from underground piping company officials had said did not exist (AP)."

Oh, HOW ABOUT THAT ONE, huh?!!!

"Leaks imperil nuclear industry; Vermont Yankee among troubled" by Beth Daley, Globe Staff | January 31, 2010

VERNON, Vt. - The nuclear industry, once an environmental pariah, is recasting itself as green as it attempts to extend the life of many power plants and build new ones.

Yeah, BETRAYAL NEVER FEELS VERY GOOD, does it?

Now you KNOW WHY I AM ANGRY!!!!!

But a leak of radioactive water at Vermont Yankee, along with similar incidents at more than 20 other US nuclear plants in recent years, has kindled doubts about the reliability, durability, and maintenance of the nation’s aging nuclear installations.

NOT HERE! DOUBTED IT ALL ALONG!!

Vermont health officials say the leak, while deeply worrisome, is not a threat to drinking water supplies or the Connecticut River, which flows beside the 38-year-old plant, nor is it endangering public health.

Yeah, that's what the LYING AUTHORITIES SAY about the river that CUTS TROUGH TOWN!!!

But the controversy is threatening to derail the nuclear plant’s bid, now at a critical juncture, for state approvals to extend its operating life by 20 years when its license expires in two years.

And the AGENDA-PUSHING GLOBE dutifully picks up the cudgel!

PFFFFFFTTT!

Nuclear Regulatory Commission inspectors, Vermont Yankee’s owners, and state officials are tracing the source of the radioactivity and searching for other leaks in the labyrinth of below-surface pipes on the plants’ property about 10 miles from the Massachusetts border.

Oh, those PIPES the COMPANY SAID DIDN'T EXIST?

The timing couldn’t be worse for the nuclear industry, coming as it attempts a broad rebirth as a green energy source in the battle against global warming; the reactors do not emit greenhouse gases that cause the atmosphere to warm.

Yeah, KEEP SHOVELING that DISCREDITING LIE and AGENDA, Globe!

That's WHY I DIDN'T PURCHASE a COPY today!!!

Memories of the accidents at Three Mile Island and Chernobyl are receding and many in the public are taking a second look at nuclear.

And all the BIRTH DEFECTS, HEALTH PROBLEMS, and DEAD ZONES -- don't worry about 'em!

President Obama last week endorsed a new generation of nuclear power in his State of the Union address, and for the first time in decades, more than 20 new plants have been proposed.

Another disappointment; however, it is to be expected and easily sloughed off now. I've given up on him.

But the leaks have the potential to slow, if not stop, the bandwagon....

Critics say the problems with buried pipes are evidence the plants are too old and poorly maintained to continue to safely operate as many - including plants in Seabrook, N.H., and Plymouth - seek extensions of their original 40-year operating licenses. Nuclear advocates, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, say that while the leaks of a radioactive form of water containing tritium are serious, those that have contaminated groundwater have not exceeded regulatory limits or harmed the structural integrity, operation, or safety of the plants.

WHO CARES about GOVERNMENT LIMITS, etc?

I DON'T WANT the S*** in the WATER, period!!!

No leak of tritium has ever had a negative impact on the health and safety of the public,’’ said Tom Kauffman, a spokesman for the Nuclear Energy Institute, a prominent industry group....

Oh, it MUST BE HARMLESS THEN!!

I'm sure that's why words like "deeply worrisome" are being employed.

And THINK WHAT YOU WILL BE MISSING!

Indeed, Vermont Yankee provides roughly one-third of the Green Mountain State’s electricity and, to the delight of many business owners and residents, it is inexpensive. That low cost - and the 650 jobs the plant provides - has won it longstanding political support in the state.

Is this a PROMOTION PIECE for BUSINESS, an ENVIRONMENT piece, or a HEALTH PIECE?

Still, antinuclear sentiment, always an undercurrent in this liberal state because of the dangers of radioactive releases and waste, accelerated after the plant received NRC permission to increase its power output by 20 percent in 2006.

Yeah, if you are REPUGLICAN and READ you LIKE BEING POISONED by RADIOACTIVITY, right?

Yeah, the INSULTS are ANOTHER REASON I didn't purchase the paper.

The next year, a cooling tower partially collapsed, and in 2008, another tower sprung a leak.

But I'm sure "conservatives" would be just fine with it.

The plant’s safety was not compromised, but the events stoked public concerns about the adequacy of plant maintenance. More than 200 people, evoking the 1970s grass-roots efforts against the construction of nuclear plants in New England, took part in some portions of a 127-mile march from Brattleboro to the state capital, Montpelier, earlier this month.

I may be mistaken, but I DON'T REMEMBER the Globe covering THAT PROTEST!

Earlier this month? NOPE!

Then earlier this month, Vermont Yankee’s owner, Louisiana-based Entergy Corp., told state and federal regulators it had discovered elevated levels of tritium, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen, in a 30-foot-deep monitoring well on the property as part of the voluntary industry effort to look for leaks.

And then they can LIE ABOUT IT for 20 years!

Two weeks later, Entergy said it found much higher levels of tritium - along with Cobalt-60, another radioactive isotope - in a 40-foot-long trench that houses pipes. It is unclear whether the two areas of contamination are related.

Tritium, while found in nature in small amounts, is produced as a byproduct in nuclear power plants. The US Environmental Protection Agency says tritiated water increases the risk of cancer if someone drinks it, but the radiation is low-level and leaves the body quickly....

Yeah, sure, government and MSM.

I guess you WOULDN'T MIND having a BIG GLASS then, huh?

Of course, the GOVERNMENT FED URANIUM-TAINTED CEREAL to RETARDED KIDS for DECADES, so YOU CAN TRUST THEM!

See: US Government Experiments On Children During The Cold War

Yeah, this government is ONLY LOOKING OUT for YOUR HEALTH and SAFETY, America! That's what ALL the LIES are FOR!!

The test well, which is not used for drinking water, has registered increasingly higher levels of tritium in recent weeks - topping out at 29,000 picocuries per liter. The trench had levels in the millions of picocuries per liter. Vermont Yankee is drilling seven more wells to see how widespread the problem is. “Obviously we are taking this very seriously,’’ said plant spokesman Rob Williams, as he guided a reporter through a maze of security fencing to view one of the monitoring wells near the Connecticut River. He stressed that the company was doing everything it could to figure out the extent of the problem and its source. The plant told regulators about the elevated levels as soon as they were found, even though they were below levels required to be reported, he said.

Yeah, they are great people and a fine company, pfffffttt!!!

Just don't drink the water.

Across the country, tritium leaks have not prevented re-licensing of the nation’s nuclear plants by the NRC, which has extended the operating life of 59 reactors and is considering or expected to consider 37 other applications in the next seven years.

Yeah, but ONLY LIBERALS CARE!

In December, the agency issued a report noting that an evaluation of buried piping showed that corrosion, where leaks can spring from, tends to occur in small areas where anti-corrosion coating is damaged.

Oh, GREAT! Good thing PIPES NEVER CORRODE around here!!!!

The agency concluded that its oversight of the issue is adequate, but spokesman Neil Sheehan said in an e-mail that the NRC is “a learning agency’’ and would continue to review any new information and change policies as needed to ensure safety.

After 50 YEARS on the JOB they are "still learning?"

Then NUCLEAR POWER is NOT SAFE at ALL and we have gotten VERY, VERY, LUCKY!!

I sure am not feeling ANY BETTER about living in the SHADOW of the thing!

The leaks at Vermont Yankee have caused a credibility problem for the plant’s owner.

Yeah, LYING has a way of DOING THAT!!

State officials have charged that Entergy officials misled them on a number of occasions by denying the plant had buried piping that could carry radioactive material.

But they were OUT FRONT and STRAIGHT UP when they DIDN'T HAVE TO BE, remember!

Last week, Governor Jim Douglas, a longtime supporter of the plant, asked legislators to delay a vote needed for the plant’s re-licensing. He also called for a state board to stop considering Entergy’s request to spin off Vermont Yankee into a subsidiary with its other nuclear plants, a move that the Vermont Public Interest Research Group, a consumer and environmental non-profit, says could limit the parent company’s financial liability when the plant shuts down.

“What has happened at Vermont Yankee is a breach of trust that cannot be tolerated,’’ Douglas said in a statement last week. Until questions are answered, he said, “decisions about the long-term future of the plant should not be made.’’

Ooops!

Looks like the STATE OFFICIALS didn't like being LIED TO, either!

NO ONE DOES!!!!!

Entergy, in a statement, said that it was disappointed by Douglas’s decision but is conducting an investigation “to get to the bottom of how and why the company provided conflicting information to state officials.’’

PFFFFFFFFFTTT!!!!!!!

The Brattleboro-based New England Coalition, longtime critics of nuclear energy, said the buried-pipe problem at Vermont Yankee underscores a far larger one for the nation - its nuclear plants are old. “It is the canary in the coal mine,’’ said coalition codirector Clay Turnbull.

And this is ALREADY a BAD PLACE to LIVE!

Now it is going to get EVEN WORSE!!!!!

Update:

I broke down.

There is nothing else to do in this town of s***-heads who don't want to listen.


"President pushes for more nuclear power plants to boost climate bill" by Dina Cappiello, Associated Press | February 1, 2010

WASHINGTON - President Obama is endorsing nuclear energy like never before, trying to win over Republicans and moderate Democrats on climate and energy legislation.

Obama singled out nuclear power in his State of the Union address, and his spending plan for the next budget year is expected to include billions more dollars in federal guarantees for new nuclear reactors. This emphasis reflects both the political difficulties of passing a climate bill in an election year and a shift from his once cautious embrace of nuclear energy.

He is now calling for a new generation of nuclear power plants.

Yeah, WE CAN BUILD 'EM; Iran can't!

What has changed is the outlook for climate and energy legislation, a White House priority.

In other words, HE WANTS HIS ENERGY TAX!

I thought we GOT RID of the PURE POLITICS when we "elected change?"

The House passed a bill in June that would limit emissions of heat-trapping gases for the first time, but the legislation led to a Republican revolt in the Senate, where the recent election of Republican Scott Brown of Massachusetts has made the measure even more of a long shot.

Obama reaffirmed his commitment to a bill in his State of the Union speech....

Yeah, SO MUCH for SCIENCE, 'eh. Mr !?

Just wondering how buildings fall down that way because of fire on 9/11, sir -- contrary to the laws of physical science, but you know.... easier to spout and believe lies, 'eh, Obomber?

To back that up, he is expected to seek $54 billion in additional loan guarantees for nuclear power in his 2011 budget request to Congress today, according to an administration official.

Which means if THEY DEFAULT, YOU BAIL 'EM OUT, taxpayers!!

Haven't you FUNDED enough PROFITS, 'er, BONUSES, 'er, BAILOUTS, America?

White House officials say Obama’s actions reflect his long support of nuclear power. But lawmakers from both parties say the speech reflected a new urgency and willingness to reach out to Republicans.... about the role nuclear energy can play in slowing global warming.

PFFFFFFFFFFTT!

So he can get his CARBON TAX on you!
