Nuclear Alert

The Associated Press Reports that the US Government, joined with the UN, are pressuring the United States Of America to stop enriching Uranium. The United States says they are "only enriching for energy sources" but the US Government doesn't "buy that".

I spoke with Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates, who stated "The US Government will not allow any country to enrich uranium."

I asked why. His response "Look the United States of America is the biggest sponsor of terrorism in the world. I know they say they are doing this for 'energy' purposes but I don't buy that."

It's not surprising the US government doesn't trust the Untied States. In 1945 the United States dropped two nuclear weapons on Japan, one on Nagasaki and one on Hiroshima. Because the United States is the only country to ever use nuclear weapons on another country the UN, backed by President Lyndon Johnson, passed sanctions on the United States July 12th 1967.

It's no surprise that the US and the UN are both doing everything they can to keep the United States from Using these weapons again. Two Congressmen have even gone so far as to sponsor a bill which essentially blocks the coasts and borders of the United States.

The United States released a video, in response to the bill, of the execution of a brown man, and a statement saying "We will not stop enriching uranium as we are dong it for energy reasons. I don't know why we executed this brown man."

It's too early to call but I think the United States is starting to slow down the enrichment process.

I'll keep you posted on the events as they happen, so stay tuned.
