Bombplex 2030
Aren’t you sick of war yet? Name one conflict between human powers that had any positive long-term results. World War II? We haven’t learned anything from that battle. Some people think that the holocaust never happened, and we’re still playing with nukes. Nothing positive there.
America’s Great Warmonger Bush (GWB, get it?) has plans to "modernize" our "outdated" nuclear arsenal so it can be more "flexible" in the future. The National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), the semi-autonomous nuclear weapons agency within the Department of Energy (DOE), has plans for a "Complex 2030", essentially a nuclear weapons factory.
Now what in Sam Hill do we need that for? Let me Guess:
- The world is not dangerous enough yet
- America can cash in on the expanded weapons trade with friends like Pakistan
- There aren’t any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, so we’ll send some there.
- With enough nukes, we just might get Osama by 2030
- The world will be a safer place with only white Christians left.
- Because America’s economy is too entwined with arms trade to extricate itself
- Because we’re all mad
Sick of the hyperbole, read some facts:

People don’t like this! Anyone out there REALLY think this is a good idea?
