China’s plans to deploy floating nuclear reactors capable of powering military facilities
LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Thursday, (05/09/2024)
Russia is constructing a nuclear power plant on the moon, and orbiting nuclear bombs in space; China is putting nuclear reactors on small floating islands to support their military facilities. Have we lost our collective minds? The answer is, “Yes!”
Don’t we realize that, already, every nuclear armed submarine is carrying kilotons of bombs; ICBMs are carrying kilotons of bombs, and these days every nuclear power plant has nuclear armed militaries slobbering with joy at the thought of assimilating nuclear power plants as weapons of mass destruction, not to mention that nuclear power plants are like live sitting-duck ‘traps’ threatening to catch humans anywhere and everwhere and eliminate us, and other living critters, if not as captives of war, but by terrorism, human error, earthquakes, tidal waves, creating lethal radiation poisoning on our once life-giving planet Earth. And we are insanely adding to all of this extraneous nuclear activity while directly staring possible or probable nuclear war in the face.
It took only two atomic bombs (popguns by today’s standards) to kill 100 thousand or more Japanese citizens to end WWII. We already have enough nuclear products of all kinds to destroy virtually every living thing on planet Earth with ‘all things nuclear’, but we can’t seem to break the habit — even in outer space. ~llaw
