'Pakistani and Indian nukes safe after quake'
2005-10-12
Somebody was wondering about this yesterday...

#8  TW-
Actually, my guess would be that these weapons aren't assembled and ready for use. Would be a lot safer if you had the weapon in one place, the pit in another, and then assembled it.
Safer for Perv, that is. Hard to work Allah's will with an incomplete weapon.

#7  Aren't nukes fairly delicate creatures? Can we hope that after all this excitement, the technicians will have to take each one apart to make sure nothing inside was jostled out of alignment, and that they aren't quite as careful putting the things back together again?

#6  I gotta believe (hope?) that part of putting up with Perv is making sure we know the nukes are under control.

#5  I don't doubt that the Indian nukes are safe.

But I perhaps suspect that may be less true for the Paki side. It might also have wreaked havoc on their production facilities which I thought were in the northwest part of the country...

#4  Nevermind. Backslashes are getting stripped from the URL. Just search at Daily Times for "pakistani indian nukes." The story is the first search result.

More's the pity...
