....they COULD have bought plutonium easily enough from the British (their reprocessing plant produces a fair amount of extractable plutonium) and probably from the French. Possibly even from the Israelis. Buying from Russia makes no real sense As someone else explained, it seems they're doing it to take the plutonium away from the Russians. And I bet the Russians love that sweet, sweet money.
darling, i don't need to cite the obvious You are a violent pedophile predator. I don't need proof, since it's obvious.
darling: it's not beholden on to me to hold your delicate hand with copious links just because you are sheltered from obvious observations of the world we live in Listen, perv, your obvious observation of a biased sample don't mean squat, coming from a pedophile.
The West has been buying Russian plutonium from old weapons and from surplus stockpiles under the idea that it's better to use it as fuel in a power plant than in a weapon. Ahhhh! Thanks for the info, I was thoroughly bemused:)
NASA should use simple wind turbines. Must be windy up there The solar wind is a stream of charged particles (i.e., a plasma) which are ejected from the upper atmosphere of the sun. It consists mostly of high-energy electrons and protons
i woudl suppose you would want the democratic usa to have no interaction whatsoever with an unelected authoritarian in a display of clean idealistic allegiance to democratic principles
ok
BUT THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THE BUSH POLICY IS TOWARDS CUBA Last year in Miami, I offered Cuba's government a way forward [...] Clearly, the Castro regime will not change by its own choice. But Cuba must change. So today I'm announcing several new initiatives intended to hasten the arrival of a new, free, democratic Cuba. (Applause.)

FUCK, you're stupid! That explains why you don't understand anything, can't spell, and keep flaming strawmen!
the cold war? defeating communism? not a reason in your mind for dealing with dictators?
no, in your mind dealing with dictators to defeat communism gets warped to become "we say we want democracy but we really want dictatorship because we're flagrant hypocrites like that" "We want democracy, only if the people elect people who will do as we say", if not, a dictator will do nicely.
No, defeating communism is no reason to ignore democracy when convenient.
And evidenced by people coming from Canada to the US to get the best Health Care Money can buy, but isn't available there. All the socialized health care in the world has this backup plan, called the US of A. And the people of the US going to Canada to get the medication they need, or going to Mexico or India for surgery they just can't afford at home.
castro and castro bro are not batista. but they still suck, no matter how they compare to batista, so we criticize them on that basis. No. You don't. That's my point. Batista was a dictator who overthrew an elected government: He got US support. Castro overthrew him, he gets the US trying to assassinate him and claiming that what they want is democracy in Cuba, when clearly democracy was not an issue with the last, worse dictator.
tell me where i am wrong in my understanding of your words: you are saying that the cuban government behaves the way it does because of the usa
W.T.F!? Cuba had a democracy. A dictator overthrew that democracy and that tyrant was supported by the USA. He was then deposed by revolutionaries, and the USA condemned that turn of event ans has been imposing hardships on the population of Cuba ever since.
Maybe if you didn't slap your forehead so much you could understand that a nations' actions towards another has consequences that should not be ignored.
someone please explain to me: how on the subject matter of the bad things the usa's bitter enemies do, does the usa gets all the hate? Because the USAs' dear friends do worse things, but the hate is not applied appropriately.
Look at Pakistan, look at Saudi Arabia. Why all the hate for Cuba when the USAs' friends are also doing truly vile things?
It wasn't Christianity that had chosen that pseudo-science as right and above any questioning. He was tried by the CHURCH for HERESY. Not by a secular court for "unpopular science".
remember that they are (as far as I know), the only _major_ Christian church that supports evolution
And what _major_ Christian church opposes evolution? The Baptists number over 110 million worldwide in more than 170,000 congregations, and considered the largest world communion of evangelical Protestants, with an estimated 22 million members in the North America.

prove that the people you rail against ONLY disapprove of the USs' meddling and never blame Russia for Chechnya and etc.
Or stop claiming that.
no, in your mind dealing with dictators to defeat communism gets warped to become "we say we want democracy but we really want dictatorship because we're flagrant hypocrites like that" "We want democracy, only if the people elect people who will do as we say", if not, a dictator will do nicely.

Flagrant hypocrisy. Unacceptable.
why aren't you lambasting beijing for endorsing myanmar? Because this thread is neither about Africa nor Myanmar.

DON'T criticize the usa for pakistani crimes
that's the kind of weirdo i am The USA endorses and defends these criminals.
The accomplice of a crime deserves blame just as much as the perpetrator.
Look at Pakistan, look at Saudi Arabia. Why all the hate for Cuba when the USAs' friends are also doing truly vile things?
...why? Same reason others climb mountains.Not by a secular court for "unpopular science".
Seriously? You're going with that argument?
