Secret US List of Civil Nuclear Sites Released

eldavojohn writes "Someone accidentally released a 266-page report on hundreds of sites in the US for stockpiling and storing hazardous nuclear materials for civilian use. While some ex-officials and experts don't find it to be a serious breach, the Federation of American Scientists are calling it a 'a one-stop shop for information on US nuclear programs.' The document contains information about Los Alamos, Livermore and Sandia, and opinions seem to be split on whether it's a harmless list or terrorist risk. One thing is for sure: it was taken down after the New York Times inquired to the Government Accountability Office about it."

    It's not really "leaks".
    It's Obama doing a spring cleaning after Bush' mess.

    Its all fun and politics until Seoul and Tokyo and its 20 million residents disappear in a flash of light.

    I vote for taking out North Korea today. I'd rather have a 100,000+ casualties today if it can prevent the likely horrific death of 20 million+ later.

    If I can shoot back, I'm a lot tougher to coerce.

    I conclude that gov'ts disarm their citizens to make it easier for ANYone to terrorize them.
