Israelis hit Syrian ‘nuclear bomb plant’

All governments concerned - even the regime in Damascus - have tried to maintain complete secrecy about the raid.They apparently fear that forcing a confrontation on the issue could spark a war between Israel and Syria, end the Middle East peace talks and wreck America’s extremely complex negotiations to disarm North Korea of its nuclear weapons.

Syria’s haste after the attack to bury the site under tons of soil suggested that hundreds of square yards were contaminated and there were fears of radiation, the professor added. Since then the Syrians have sealed up the location, levelled the site and diverted curious journalists to a place that had not been attacked by Israel.

Plutonium pellets are handled and machined exclusively in a large array of ‘glove boxes’, to protect the technicians and their environment. That is why you need a relatively large containment building and cannot assemble a nuclear weapon in your garage - unless you are suicidal of course.”

The debris from a destructive raid on a weapons-building facility could therefore contain toxic radioactive waste. But the main danger for Syria would be the telltale exposure of the elements to surveillance and detection by America. This would explain the cover-up at the site.

North Korea, for its part, has more than enough plutonium to sell some of its stock to Syria.

I doubt this issue was brought up during the Annapolis meetings but it sure must have been on a few participants minds....for the sake of a lasting peace in our time.

radiation into the atmosphere to be detected by other countries?

And if it really were true, why are Cheney/Israel still doing a Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Bomb Iran song every time they open their mouths?

Because they could manage Syria if the U.S. invaded Iran?

To facilitate invading Iran?

To justify invading Iran? To set off circumstances that would provide justification?

Why do I say invade rather than take-out?

Because I think of them (certain U.S. and Israel evil manipulators and their corporate originators) as a conglomeration of historic invading neanderthals and conquerors - neither are acting like humans. This includes Muslims in charge of killing and torturing - they are parallels. Including the King of Jordan - for the torturing of their own religion aharing-neighbor brothers.

Back in the late 70's, I spent an afternoon with one of Karen Silkwood's co workers from the Kerr-McGee Cimarron plutonium processing facility. They told me that security was so lax there that on their lunch hour, they used to use defective Plutonium fuel pellets for slingshot ammunition to shoot at Sea Gulls. The bottom of the Red River adjacent to the plant is covered in Plutonium fuel pellets.

it wouldn't justify or make this attack legal.

Just imagine if another country had overflown the U.S. and bombed hell out of someplace. Let's say, oh, a big financial center somewhere. How would the U.S. react to such an act of unprovoked aggression?

"Professor Uzi Even of Tel Aviv University was one of the founders of the Israeli nuclear reactor at Dimona, the source of the Jewish state’s undeclared nuclear arsenal."

Its quite a mystery Aviation Week ran articles on it

if Syria decided to bomb Israel's nuclear weapons programme? A whole lot, I imagine. A little quid pro quo might be a good lesson for the Israelis to learn.

Do not take theory as fact. Here's some context:
