Title: | Making a table stand upon one - alleged - corner |

It is a neat trick, Houdini might have pulled it off, to make a table stand upon one leg under one corner.
Even a three cornered table.
The plant to produce Plutonium requires four legs. One leg is a source for Uranium ore. The second is the plant to manufacture the reactor fuel. The third is the reactor. The fourth is the plant to separate the Plutonium from the spent reactor fuel.
The argument that there was a nuclear weapons program in Syria depends upon the only leg alleged to have existed.
Was the building a North Korean provided Magnox reactor? Then why is there no exhaust stack and cooling tower as seen in the North Korean facility (see http://www.globalsecurity.org/wmd/world/dprk/yongbyon-imagery.htm). The North Korean reactor is quite close to the river - a cooler river than the one in Syria - and still the North Koreans needed a cooling tower.
So even that `leg` is not well supported. |
