Brazil claims backing on uranium

[ConantheBarbarian]

Brazil has announced it will begin enriching uranium officially

Damn, why dont' we all just start a program.

Well enriched uranium doesn't automatically mean a bomb, but they (like everyone else) are considering nuclear weapons as a deterrent. It's the only way to defend themselves from superior conventional force. Pretty much everyone wants to have a poison pill.

Only right wing American Christians should have access to nuclear bombs. The rest of the world needs to be content that we will protect the Jesus Way with our bombs.

Please, please stay away from positions of authority.


As far as Brazil's Nuclear power ambitions, good for them.

First, this is not to make nuclear weapons, and we shutted down our nuclear program 15 years ago.

But I really think we should have some nukes, because maybe some moron president decides our people need to be "liberated".

Uh oh, looks like Brazil will be added to the P&N axis of evil.

I am willing to bet that it really is for domestic reactor consumption.

I don't think Brasil has any serious regional issues that would make them want to aquire weapons and break the NPT.

it's not just brazil, it's a proliferation problem. there are terrorists/guerillas in many of the countries surrounding brazil that could do major harm if they got their hands on this stuff.

Thanks Einstein

 

[miketheidiot]

this is a great sign :roll:

oh well it would be nice to have a counterbalance on the continent. At least this might prevent us from liberatering Venezula. Chavez just won't stop oppressing those rich.

It's almost refreshing to hear something from South America, though. They've been out of the loop for awhile now
