It doesn't take a "nuclear scientist" to figure out the handshake under the table opens the door for other uses of nuclear material. <br /><br />If you are as smart as I think you are this should not be too difficult a step in logic. History has shown that despots will do anything to obtain nuclear weapons and technology, why would you give such a power crazy man as Chavez any benefit of the doubt?<br /><br />link:<br /><br />http://www1.voanews.com/english/news/americas/Russia-Offers-Venezuela-Nuclear-Help-89830047.htmlT.

That is info that would interest me.<br /><br />I have been looking, including through the IAEA, and can find very little on it.<br /><br />The only reference to Russia and Chavez relates to a nuclear powerstation. that, as I have written at home, is a very long way from weapons. Can you provide a link saying "weapons" instead of "powerstation"?The probligohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17882103150181414348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10101682.post-64838993329221342492010-04-13T20:54:22.334-05:002010-04-13T20:54:22.334-05:00The problem with liars is they tend to lie, claim ...The problem with liars is they tend to lie, claim to uphold treaties when in fact they don't. In the case of Obama signing with the Russians, this comes the same week that the Russians are telling Chavez down in Venezuela that they will supply him with nuclear weapons; hardly what I'd call honoring the intent of scaling down nuclear weapons. <br /><br />Obama is dealing from a weak hand when he declared his intention to never use nuclear weapons, even if chemical or biological weapons were used against the US. The purpose of nuclear weapons is to be so terrible as to discourage anyone from attacking, regardless of the tactical weapons used.<br /><br />As far as Pakistan, India, North Korea, Iran being unstable and capable of nuclear attacks, well that is the world we live in. <br /><br />There was a report out recently that a large percentage of nuclear material in various stages of usefulness could not be accounted for in both Russian states as well as China; how comforting that is to the civilized world.T.

Pandora’s Box is open.<br /><br /><br />Read again, and you will find that the proposed new SALT - or START or whatever acronym is current - treaty with Russia is a very small part of the efforts being made. <br /><br />I for one congratulate anyone, whether American President or not, who is prepared to stick their head out of their trench in an effort to stop any further proliferation of nuclear capability and most particularly to enhance protection and control of existing WGU stocks in whatever form they might take.<br /><br />The real biggie is getting the Russians in particular (and that includes Ukraine who hold the biggest part of the old Russian stocks), the Chinese and Israelis to control and stop the pilfering and loss of their existing WGU stocks. If Obama can pull that one off then he deserves a huge thanks and even a kiss on the cheek from every American.The probligohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17882103150181414348noreply@blogger.com
