Re: Anti-nukes and the mantra of the day: Nuclear Terrorism

[Susan Gawarecki <loc@ICX.NET>]

The antis may be doing us a favor--the terrorists see these pictures

too.  If they target a nuclear plant, perhaps they'll go for those

imposing cooling towers instead of the containment.  Despite the

effectiveness of the September 11 attack, it was not rocket science and

did not reflect deep analysis of the targets--just a preference for

large, nationally symbolic structures that were easily found from the

air.



My own opinion.
