50 years of nuclear winter! :Oh crap

fill your bunkers with all the porn you can get lol

Are you kidding, WE DID. Anyone remember Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

In the history of warfare, nuclear weapons have been used on two occasions

Yeh, really, how soon everyone forgets the US has actually deployed their boom box.

Question is would we do the same response in todays political climate? Take out 100,000+ civilians including the elderly, women and children with one bomb?

Don't know if we'd have the balls for it.

Some other facts - the nuclear plant (the large one scheduled to go online next year for electrical generation) has been bombed at least 6 times already during the Iran/Iraq war.
Israel has already bombed a nuke plant back in 1981 in Iraq
The US has already stated that its policy is to not allow proliferation and has already met with Israel to coordinate an attack if necessary (March this year)
IAEA inspectors have already been in the country of Iran and are looking at the enrichment plant being built to support generating the fuel for the electrical generation plants
Russia has already signed a support agreement with Iran to take shipments of used fuel from the reactors for burial.

And the major problem with all of this is that Iran controls way more oil and natural gas than Iraq ever did and is more likely a target for control of those fields than for any other reason.

The proliferation issue is one that the US is going to have a hard time with in the UN as they have already "allowed" and supplied Pakistan with not only nuclear plants but technology for nuclear weapons and delivery systems.
The major reason its being brought up is a paper done by the current UN ambassador Bolton who used to be the undersecretary of state for arms control and his fetish for controlling who has the weapons - he thinks the US is responsible for controlling nuclear technology worldwide and is obsessed with it. Other countries tend to disagree :)

You...along with many others on this board...have a talent for spewing forth misinformation.

Time for the whoel world to blow itself up

Funny how that is timed with Iran opening the world's first oil Bourse denominated in Euros in March.

It is US Dollar hegemony or the same WMD line all over again? hmmmm....

Don't talk to loud...

TheKing will hear you and claim it is all BS...

Damn Nukes are scary as fuck.

especially if you live within 50 miles of a major city or nuke silo

These days little boy and fat man bombs are merely triggers used to detonate the thermonuclear ones

The thermonuclear ones are several hundred times as powerful as the ones dropped on Japan. :helpme

well sounds like chaos in the making

That's scary. :Oh crap

More and more countries develope nuclear weapons which causes other countries to develope them, etc.

Soon every slab of land represented by a flag will be ale to get them one way or the other.

It's not like they are hard to make the techology is 60 years old.

lets hope this won't happen.

It will happen sooner than later

I want this for Christmas:

You'd be better off spending your $ on a 100foot deep bunker, lined with a lead shell, oxygen tanks, co2 scrubbers, water filtration systems & MRE's

you got more info on this?

id like to read up

If it ever came to a all out nuclear war where I knew the world was fucked I'd just drive to some place that I knew was going to be a direct hit.

No sense surviving through that shit.

I agree, if Iran sent troops over they get lit up by F-18's and Apache's the amount of soldiers on the ground won't matter

i like the way you keep suggesting that only YOU "get it"
:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

What kind of life is that? i'd rather die
