A nuclear expert has told the BBC that this form of uranium is of no use for making nuclear weapons. |
wiki Uranium-238 is fissionable by fast neutrons, and is fertile, meaning it can be transmuted to fissile plutonium-239 in a nuclear reactor | Hell, somebody ought to tell this "nuclear expert" that all you need is a good many tons of it and a nuclear reactor in your backyard and BANG! Everybody damn well better panic, they'll be cranking out bombs in Brooklyn any day now! And you know what those folks are like! |

I think he meant "no use(without billionS and a major government supporting you)" |
"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History
"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini |

I think the kind of bomb they are worried about here is a truck sized fertilizer bomb with a bunch of yellow cake packed on top. Scare the shit out of people.
