Terrorism
Fears Prompt U.S. To Revive Study Of Nuclear Fallout...
To cope with the possibility that terrorists might someday detonate a nuclear
bomb on American soil, the federal government is reviving a scientific art that
was lost after the cold war: fallout analysis.
The goal, officials and weapons experts both inside and outside the government say, is to figure out quickly who exploded such a bomb and where the nuclear material came from. That would clarify the options for striking back. Officials also hope that if terrorists know a bomb can be traced, they will be less likely to try to use one.
Comments
It's official, the U.S. government is bringing
back a scientific art from the days of the cold war called fallout analysis.
What is fallout analysis? In a sense, it's like nuclear forensics.
American officials considerate it unlikely, but in the event of a nuclear bomb
being set off on American soil, scientists would be able to identify materials
used in the bomb which in turn would lead them to the perpetrators.
Specially designed robots would be sent into the contaminated area to gather
data as soon as possible. It is believed that through analyzing the
nuclear fallout, U.S. officials would be more adept to making the correct
response.
"Most experts say the risk of a terrorist
nuclear attack is low but no longer unthinkable, given the spread of material
and know-how around the globe." (Terrorism
Fears Prompt U.S. To Revive Study Of Nuclear Fallout...) I really look
for this to happen in our lifetime.
Israel has signed up to take part in the E.U.
global satellite system. It is similar to the one the U.S. already has in
place, but of course, more advanced.. To me, this tells me that Israel is
very close to becoming an important partner with the E.U. Sharing a
satellite system that will eventually be used for everything from communications
to military intelligence is a major step. Look for Israel to make major
steps toward becoming E.U. ready, but the real gains probably won't come
until after the man of sin is made manifest.
Speaking of the man of sin, the antichrist, I
have heard much talk lately from those who say they know for sure who the
antichrist will be. Usually, it's in response to one of my articles
regarding Tony Blair or some other political figure I suspect to be the
antichrist. But I have to repeat again that I'm only making an intelligent
guess. I don't know who the antichrist Christ is and neither do you.
I have had numerous people write me pointing me to websites that claim to know
who the antichrist is. They maybe right, but I have serious doubts!
Why do I say this? Because anything can happen with time as we have seen
over the last few years. Yes, I do agree that the antichrist is a
political leader who is in the E.U. at this very moment, but he may not turn out
to be one of the high-ranking figures such as Roman Prodi, Tony Blair, Silvio
Berlusconi or Javier Solana. He may not even turn out to the first E.U.
president!
The E.U. will be adding a new position to its
cabinet by the end of the month. The official name of the position has not
been disclosed but person who is placed in charge will be responsible for
fighting terrorism. Could he be the antichrist?
