Part three in a series. First look at this map: Now this one, which indicates the location of US military installations:
America gets divorced: what about custody of the energy and the nukes?
Forces opposed to dangerous, extravagant nuke project get day in court
Nuclear watchdogs take to the courtroom to halt the manufacture of a new facility to build the part that makes nuclear weapons explode.
New nuclear project distracts from existing safety (read: seismic) issues
Earthquake concerns not only also exist for U.S. nuclear energy plants, but for nuclear-weapons facilities too. Imagine if a plant that produces a nuclear weapon’s pit, in which the chain reaction occurs, were rocked by an earthquake?
Imagine disarmament and nonproliferation talks that reward the state with more nukes

Thanks to Fukushima light shed on U.S. nuclear facility located on a volcano
Seismic concerns grow over U.S. nuclear labs.
Dirty bombs, despite their name, not sexy enough
The threat of the dirty bomb is overshadowed by that of terrorists acquiring a nuclear weapons. A dirty bomb bears no resemblance whatsoever to a sex bomb.
What would end-timers do without the threat of nuclear annihilation?
Nuclear weapons are tailor-made for evangelicals who believe in the Rapture. Nuclear war makes Armageddon even more dramatic than, say, an asteroid colliding with the earth.

The trouble with taboos is that they’re made to be broken. Realism and ethics converge in the belief that nuclear weapon use is unthinkable.
Is "It's not fair" a childish response to being denied nuclear weapons?
Nonproliferation is a non-starter when those who seek to enforce it refuse to convincingly disarm. Nuclear “apartheid” is a critical concern to many states.
Thanks to New START, you too can "ride out" a nuclear attack
A nuclear attack is a good opportunity to “cocoon.”
