The message is if you're Israel, India or Pakistan it's OK to have WMD. In fact you can even engage in a dangerous arms-race if you're India and Pakistan, or force your enimies to try to acquire the same weapons if your threatened by Israels 400 nukes. But if you're Egypt, Syria, Iran or North Korea you're not allowed to be in the club. Why? read full story / add a comment

India’s nuclear energy development program has allowed it to obtain the essential materials and facilities needed to produce nuclear weapons. This infrastructure includes seven operating nuclear power plants, two research reactors at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center near Bombay, where India produced its stock of weapons-grade plutonium, and resources for producing and reprocessing plutonium and enriching uranium. Indian pressurized heavy water reactors (PHWR) can be used to generate electricity, as well as producing plutonium and tritium. As additional indigenously built nuclear power reactors become operational, India’s capability to produce plutonium for nuclear weapons will increase. Although India is a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, only some Indian nuclear reactors are subject to IAEA safegu read full story / add a comment

The Israelis are experts at hiding their WMD program and have continued to do so since the 1940s. For instance United States inspectors visited their Dimona nuclear plant seven times during the 1960s, but they were unable to obtain an accurate picture of the activities carried out there, largely due to tight Israeli control over the timing and agenda of the visits. The Israelis went so far as to install false control room panels and to brick over elevators and hallways that accessed certain areas of the facility. The inspectors were able to report that there was no clear scientific research or civilian nuclear power program justifying such a large reactor - circumstantial evidence of the Israeli bomb program - but found no evidence of "weapons related activities" such as the existence of a plutonium reprocessing plant. http://globalsecurity.org/wmd/world/israel/nuke.htm read full story / add a comment

Mainstream media BBC, ITV etc black out/censorship of anti war protestors at Hillsborough. Local news BBC, did give us a glimpse of thousands of anti war protestors at Hillsborough, but that was all we got. The BBC/ITV dedicated about 10 mins to the tiny DUP George Seawright memorial PRO WAR rally in Belfast city center but failed to cover anti war protests in depth. read full story / add a comment

Helium balloons loaded upwind of the castle can carry sheets with antiwar messages past the castle. Use two helium balloons and a stiff wire/bamboo pole to keep the two apart. If the cops try to keep Bush from seeing protests, this can overcome such actions read full story / add a comment |
