Try to keep up, NWB

Dr. Pot thinks that we would know where the nuclear bomb was manufactured after the explosion. There would be no way to tell unless we have a pre-existing knowledge of a rogue bomb.
"...a nuclear bomb will leave a little black box..."

Keep up with what? Are you crazy?

International conventions dictate that all nuclear devices be labeled with an isotopic marker. Of course this wouldn't apply to any rogue devices, but it would cover any State manufactured weapon like we would likely be looking at in this scenario.

There's lots of ways. They could tell whether the bomb was made with plutonium or uranium based on the fallout, what type of equipment would be necessary to process the fuel, what design of bomb it was based on the blast characteristics and fallout, what equipment and materials would be necessary to build such a bomb, what countries had access to that equipment, etc.

Link please Picasso345.

Zen, I think you think you are right. I do not. I think you keep making some very incorrect statements here just to argue with people.

Okay thats true, if one was stolen from the US or Israel, Russia ect, which would be the most likely scenario.

Nah, haha, I think I am actually wrong on this one. Picasso is talking about Isotopic signatures which means there are different levels of C and Eu defined by different manufactures.

So the bomb went from completely destroying the fabric of our nation to causing a drop in the stock market? I'm not saying it would be good for our economy, but it wouldn't cause the US to fall apart.
not a drop, a crash...which would lead to a monumental depression that would affect the world over and most likely give us a violent shove into a drastically more authoritarian state.

I don't think anyone using this site knows or ever will know the truth about those WMDs. If you knew you wouldn't be discussing it. Speculate on.

That's just idle speculation. One thing that characterizes depressions is that there tends to not be anything for people to do, hence high unemployment. But after a disaster, there is a lot of work to be done, and people are more on the same page as far as being motivated and working toward a common goal.

All I know is all of this talk about yellowcake and curry is making me hungry.
You may have stumbled upon the next great invention Grow Tech!! A meal with a half life of 200 years. Think of the unending tasty burps of curry.

So yellowcake mixed in with Von Doobage would be a high that keeps on giving..... :mrgreen:


out. :blsmoke:

So who profits/benifits from this yellow cake? I would love to hear someone say that the country of Iraq would get the cash but they probably owe whatever it's worth to whomever "got it out"

So You guys finaly got your WMD's. Lies or no lies they are found and removed, took all these years but it should be all over now right? So the Terrorists were what? trying to keep you guys from finding them? Still are? That's what this war is about right? I'm confused.

Here's the deal: The war on terror was a brilliant Idea fabricated by the Neo-cons. Think about it, it's even less specific than the war on drugs. Terror is an Idea, an Idea that makes people afraid, thus the name terror. A "terrorist" can be any nationality from any country of any race and for any reason: therefore, we are all prospective terrorists. This means that a sector of the US government can name anyone a terrorist and remove them from society in any part of the world under the Patriot acts provisions, Rendition anyone. What it actually does is make the USA the number one terrorist in the world. I'm sure a plethora of countries would agree with me. When does patriotism end and blind obedience began?

Just a guess here but wouldn't the yellowcake be considered contraband? I'm sure Saddam broke about every law applicable in making the stuff, or gathering it from outside sources (gosh, who would do such a thing :shock: ), not to mention treaty violations.

The uranium was ostensibly for use in nuclear power plants. Sure, you might say, like Iraq needs nuclear power. Still, having a functioning nuclear power program is kind of like having a space program. It's mostly a prestige thing, not so much for practical purposes.

Anyway, UN weapons inspectors knew it was there since 1991, and they had been making sure he didn't do anything shady with it.

The U.N.? Oh please stop it..... funny stuff. :-o

I love how people like you accuse Iraq of breaking international laws and then in the same breath advocate that the US ignore those same laws. Doesn't that strike you as a bit hypocritical?
