After all that IS happening isn't it?
Terrorist attacks against nuclear power plants are NOT happening, are they?
Maybe you can list all of the plots that have been discovered, all that have been attempted and all that have succeeded, or are we just doing a Judy Miller here and reading the press releases from the Office of Homeland Security?
But let's say that there was a credible threat against a nuclear power plant...
Is it the contention of the fear squad that the results would be worse than the submersion of Bangladesh? Thirty hurricanes a year? Drought induced famines wiping out vast areas of Africa? The complete melting of the Himilayan glaciers?
Is the main difference here that the women near the Pilgrim nuclear power plant are white and the vast majority of people
actually killed by global climate change in this year are not?
I repeat that "nuclear exceptionalism," wherein immoral people assert irrational fear of nuclear power while ignoring all other energy risks - even those that are no no longer merely risks but are now becoming certainties - are unimpressive and weak.
They are what they have always been, appeals to fear of the possible to the exclusion of the events that are actually happening.
Global climate change is a fact. Anyone who wants to limit access to what is measurably the safest form of energy known, nuclear power,
http://www.externe.info/results.htmlneeds to state clearly what they intend to replace it with. They need to show what it will cost and who will die to pay that cost.
I expect now to get 50 posts with "so and so" said this, lists of resumes, appeals to authority, post after post after post.
What I will not hear is a solution to global climate change, which is killing people right now in Mexico TODAY. The bodies will be collected and added up later this week.
That the unethical and immoral are more worried about the paranoia of the Massachusetts ladies - whose lives are actually being saved by the non-polluting Pilgrim Nuclear Plant - whether they are remotely intelligent enought to grasp that FACT or not - than they are about
the lives the people of Mexico, the people of Guatamala, the People of Haiti, the People of Bangladesh, speaks volumes.
