Trump says he bombed Iran

I dont need to, again, red mercury is a complete and utter myth.

And there are about 1000 other people, probably kicking around the site.

That know far more about the stuff that i ever will.

Red mercury is just not a thing.

The myth came about at the arse-end of the Cold War, when ex-Soviet arms dealers were trying to bump gullible people with money silly.

Choose to believe as you please, but that's pseudoscience like i said.

It's like the modern philosopher's stone.

Seriously? I will say it again, simpler. 


MIT researchers confirm that last nuclear test at almost 100% clean. 
End of story.

Why are you caught up on the totally unrelated mention of red mercury in a blog?
TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT SOURCES

Do you understand? 

One is speculation, one is the data.

Forget about your trigger word.
I just want to make sure you are understanding what is occurring here. 

I was only sharing the blog because that was in answer to Carpy on where I heard about the Journal data.

wow. . .

Can you paste that part of the article. I don't have an account.

You mentioned the stuff, buddy, and it's not a thing. 

Operation Dominic did not confirm a near-zero fallout thermonuclear device.

And Fusion bombs still require a fission trigger.

And if MIT knows better, well, the question begs why we are still trying to make fusion work, and it's always 40 years away? 

It is what it is, mate, but this sounds like the same sort of stuff, like where they suggest nuclear reactors could be the size of tennis balls.

So, yes, speculation i suppose in the extreme.

good song. i wouldnt mind buyin that on disc. the original album ;)

Marty Robbins is the man....I can't think of a better country and western singer with emphasis on western... 

Used to play some pool on the other side of the tracks in a bar and grill, early in the afternoon, they played Marty, but at night, Herb Alpert, Willie Bobo etc.  

LOL but I'm still trying to find an AI that sings it like Marty

I like how The President now calls everything that contradicts him evil, and then his supporters rebuke it and call for contradicting heads to roll.

Actually I don't, It scares the shit out of me, because dictatorships like China, North Korea, and Russia do that crap. 

...

I feel like once again this administration considers me an idiot with absolutely zero ability to read through his bullshit and posturing exaggerations, like every other intelligence agency on Earth is doing. We're the ones with the propaganda. 

quick doctor the drugs are wearing off! get her another infusion of change she can believe in!



been that way for a long time. public foreign policy statements by the government are intended for foreign audiences as well as domestic. did you believe bush and obama about the usa being a bastion of freedom and truth and being welcomed as liberators? that gaddafi needed a knife up his ass so we could make libyans lives better with democracy? truth is, americans are pretty much the most propagandized and lied-to people in the world, and have been for a while. it's just no longer necessary for you to believe otherwise.

there's an old joke from the 80s about a traveller who meets two russians on a plane to dc. he asks them why they're travelling, and they tell him "to study american propganda techniques". the traveller asks "what propaganda?" and the russians respond: "exactly."

used to have to be believable. with siloed truth-bubbles, that's no longer the case. just retreat into your nrp world, it's okay. find the people you can believe there. or nyt, or huffpo, or whatever. or go to the breitbart darkside. it doesn't matter, just pick one. if you can't, accept being disaffected, and don't become radicalized. you've been shown what will happen if you allow that.

and have fun! it's more fun when you have fun.

all in all, it's a much more stable system.

Your reading comprehension is shot.

That is not my blog, I did not mention it. The words red mercury really triggered you- I should have edited the post but I found it interesting as a whole. 


MIT analysed the data of the bomb test and found it to be 99.-% clean.
This is per wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Dominic

The test in question was Housatonic
on the bottom of the chart there

This is on pages 133–161 of the Journal here from MIT https://direct.mit.edu/jcws/article-abst...m=fulltext

Now that I have connected all the dots for you would you like me to do any other basic comprehension tasks for you? 

Unfortunately I do not have access to the full journal but I am going to take an MIT scientist's word on the cleanliness of the bomb over some rando on a web forum who can't discern wheat from chaff, sorry, sir.

Has a page shot.

No nuclear weapon is entirely clean.

Even low-fallout designs still produce radiation due to the fission triggers and neutron activation.

3 Mile Island and Chernobyl, the China Syndrome, then Fukushima paranoia stalled nuclear energy acceptance, and added 40-50 more years of greenhouse gases from coal and gas power plants around the world.

Georgia's been waiting for Vogtle to come online for almost 2 decades... glowing green energy is the way

Tiny leaks, like the above point to , show clean nuclear being a thing , just still classified, like the page shot shows.

So did my Dad... we still play Gene Autry's Christmas album and have for most of my 60 years
