[QUOTE=Zeke129;32124575]You can't turn a power plant into a bomb. A power plant doesn't even help you research making a bomb unless you count the lightbulbs in the bomb-making room it keeps on.[/QUOTE]Dirty bombs using the waste from the nuclear plant.
[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;32124623]Uh, I know that. You can put more than one thing in a building. This is called "keeping your huge no-no nuclear weapons program a secret by hiding the equipment for processing uranium into weapons-grade material in your uranium-consuming power plant." Don't rate me dumb if you really didn't figure that part out.[/QUOTE] They could also just build a school or hospital for significantly less money if they wanted to hide it Putting a nuclear bomb manufacturing facility in a nuclear power plant is probably the single stupidest place to hide it [editline]5th September 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Lizzrd;32124995]Dirty bombs using the waste from the nuclear plant.[/QUOTE] Biological agents are easier to acquire and much more effective
[QUOTE=MightyMax;32120767]i imagined them literally plugging a power station into the grid.[/QUOTE] I thought they just had one of those cooling tower things, and just got a reaaaly long cord and plugged it into a tiny outlet :v:
[QUOTE=JumpinJackFlash;32124492]It would be really nice if they just kept it as a power plant. You and I both know better than that, they're going to test a bomb eventually, just like North Korea did JUST to piss everyone off. In a perfect world, they would be content with nuclear power, develop the shit out of their nation and try to be the best thing since sliced bread. Though this is not a perfect world because unicorns, dragons and hot forest nymphs who try to seduce you at every opportunity don't exist.[/QUOTE] Its actually hard to turn a civilian nuclear power program into a military weapons program. Its not like you wake up and stick radioactive material in a bomb one day and call it done. Not to mention hiding it in a nuclear power station would be stupid, that is the first place anyone would look. If Iran was serious about nuclear weapons they would be making them in a hidden bunker somewhere.
