The nuclear reactors that generate the energy in a power station can just as easily be used as breeder reactors converting Uranium-238 to Plutonium-239; or cover up the quite simple manufacturing of Uranium-235, the stuff in the first atomic bombs.

Yeah, I suppose. I don't know the specific sciences behind nuclear boms and fission/fusion, it just seems like the two are not very easily interchangeable, that's all.

And I'm not sad because there is a chance we could get blown up, I'm sad at the fact that we are all still fighting like a bunch of hyenas over a zebra carcas. The people in charge all seem so corrupt with money, power, and fame that they could care less about side effects or callateral damage as long as their bank account keeps getting bigger. Anyway, I can see I'm just going to start talking in circles and get lost in my rage, so I'm going to stop here...

Just remember the people with their finger on the trigger have more to lose than most of the rest of us. The middle eastern countries worry me though.

There are alot of great people in the middle east, I know that Joker is kidding but man that is a scary thought. What needs to be done is a surgical strike on our politicians and theirs.
"We the People for the people" doesnt mean much anymore.
