New Nuclear Weapons
From Wired Online: the US has opened production of new nuclear warheads to add to its already formidable arsenal of weapons of mass destruction. Have they gone nuts down south? Apparently. It doesn't seem enough that the US already has conventional capacity to blow up just about any country in the world, they also seem to need the ability to manufacture nuclear weapons at an increased capacity. The last US nuclear warhead producing plant was closed back in the late 1980s by the FBI due to environmental concerns. Since then, the US has had only it's current capacity of nuclear weapons, as wells as 5,000 warheads in reserve. Enough firepower to blowup the planet.
