Using Chernobyl as a demonstration of radiation spread is extremely erroneous. A nuclear power plant releasing radioactive material adter an explosion and a nuclear bomb detonating are two very different things. China wasn't obliterated by fallout from Nagasaki and Hiroshima, and those would be roughly the same power as 1st gen Iranian nukes unless they had some help.
And that's still five or six years away at best. You should remember that most countries went through exhaustive development processes lasting over ten years. The US only finished the bomb in five with help from scientists from Germany, Denmark, France, and Italy, as well as an unlimited budget and some of the greatest minds America has ever produced, all while lingering under the gun of war and a German bomb project run by Werner Heisenberg. You certainly can't apply five years to everyone indiscriminately.

And this is where we hear that nuclear weapons were really financed by the rich, while they were skimming trillions off of the US government, which apparently is a bunch of rich old conspiring men, all the while manipulating wars with Germany as a crusade against Bolshevism, freedom, and socialist labor reform. Then, we'll get to sit through a lovely seminar about how the elite have contorted Chernobyl and Hiroshima/Nagasaki data to make nuclear weapons appear harmless, and make nuclear reactors seem much worse. Then we'll again be subjected to a lengthy lecture on how we "Don't know how bad gamma particles really are" because the elite tampered with those too.
Then they bought the moon and put rockets on it, instead of a flag, during the Apollo missions, and are preparing to fly it into another solar system which is conveniently hiding, and has been covered up by those evil scientists, roughly three trillion miles away from our own, and consists of a lovely planet called Aerth, where everyone is happy and shrooms grow on the street.
Remember: it's all possible.

ROFL, only because you know its true

well it didnt go there yet luckily. after what i saw on wikipedia, nuclear bombs have alot more gamma radiation than a nuclear powerplant accident does. accidents on the other hand leaves alot more radiation than bombs does. after ten days theres around 10% of the original radiation left in the area. thats not the case for accidents.

also, a nuke i belive might not spread as much radioactive matter into the clouds as a proper uncontrolled nuclear powerplant accident would be capable of. nukes last an instant, powerplant-troubles can last for hours or days.

but i'm not really on topic here. well at least i ain't talking about conspiracies

Just stop picking on Isreal.

Israel is a big country. I think they can deal with a little bit of criticism.
In the mean time, I suggest we vaporize the entire southern half of the United States. In the north, we pay for all the lesser states in the south with smaller GDPs just so they can bring down our test scores and execute people.

I think you should realize the most threatening programs Canada has ever embarked upon have been efficient ways to blow up beaver dams, and a particularly nasty project called Project Babylon run by a rogue Canadian scientist. If you haven't memorized the big countries with nuclear strike capability, I suggest you go back to pre-school.
And how old are you exactly? Ignorance isn't permanent, but I fear massive corrective measures must be undertaken to save the world some biomass so we're not feeding an idiot and giving them internet access...
You need radical re-education immediately. Spencer's Law of Efficient Use of Biomass demands it (Article 11 under Code 11.2 on Domestic Policy).

Exactly, Canada is one of the only countries that has the technology to build nuclear weapons, but hasn't done so.....and I pray it stays that way....although you never know with Harper as our Prime Minister.

Actually quite a few places do, Switzerland, South Africa, most of the EU, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand. Theres many more.

nukes are all over the place really, but the ones i remember atm is england, us, russia, india,china, pakistan, israel(? they claim they don't, or do they?), australia prolly has something nasty, i can tell by the wildlife down there they need some just in case, NK claims to have them, but they havent tried them yet, france ofcourse, germany might have a few from the US placed there. i hope we don't count the countries which are nuclear weapon wagons for other pimps?

Cleaned up this mess of a thread, enough of the tit for tat stuff.
