A valid response is that Pakistan has had them for over a decade without using them.
A valid counter response would be that Pakistan has not threatened to "wipe Israel off the map" (multiple times) and that Pakistan is not infested with a theocracy that literally believes in the return of the Mahdi.

Yes. The gloves are off.

If you recall, he did approximately the same thing to Great Britain in his first term, gave Russia all the dope on nukes in the British arsenal.

Yes. . .they paid for them and we did not deliver them and kept the money.
Once we verified they no longer had a nuke program they were allowed to buy F-16’s. . .and like before, they pay up-front and will lose bucks and jets if they again activate a nuke development program.

At this point if anyone does not believes obama is aiding the terrorist, they are lying to themselves. He doesn’t care anymore who knows.

He is intentionally straining if not out right destroying
our relation with all of our allys. There is no doubt, the
Obama is doing everything he can to destroy this country.
He is an enemy of the state and every American. But hes
just a puppet.
Any ideas on who the puppet master is, besides satan?

Civilized countries have no problem building these bombs. South Africa had them. India & Pakistan have them and it would be quite surprising if Taiwan has not put one together and tested it. It might come in handy some day dealing with Red China.

Obama doesn't hat nukes. Otherwise, he'd be doing his best to stop Iran from getting one.
He just hates our nukes.

Nobody releases nuclear intel - nobody. I mean really, who does that and keeps their life as is?Then again, there is the matter of the missing hard drive full of NEST data at Los Alamos during the Clinton regime...

There simply is no defense against neutron bomb technology. It completely negates any numerical advantage an enemy might possess.Absolutely 100% correct. Thanks to Teller and Oppenheimer, we were given a weapon that is almost pure radiation that goes all the way thru the planet to the core (so underground shelters are useless). It simply vaporizes all organic life forms that are fauna based (animals and people) without destroying buildings or flora (plants). The radiation goes away enough in about four days for the area to be occupied without fear of radiation poisoning. You can limit the dispersal by adjusting the altitude at which the weapon is detonated and by the size. Local populations would only have to evacuate (and take livestock and pets) for a short time before they could move right back. So why did Jimmy (Peanut Brain) Carter remove that weapon from the arsenal of Freedom? He had our stockpiles eradicated.

This is further strain ties between our two nations and will also deepen Gods judgment against the USA when it falls.
The judgment has already begun. That's why we have hussein. And if the U.S.A. is still standing at the end of 2016, we'll get the she-devil as continuing judgment.

This hurt Obamas feelings and made him feel like the failure he is.
Dangerous combination for someone with Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

It simply vaporizes all organic life forms that are fauna based (animals and people) without destroying buildings or flora (plants). I hesitate to correct you on this because it sounds like this is a deeply held belief. I am not sure where you are getting your information... but it is inaccurate, greatly exaggerated and worst of all it just makes you sound silly.
Neutron radiation has no electrical charge and the particles vary in size... so shielding does create some interesting challenges. Effective shielding generally requires a composite structure with elements of both high and low atomic numbers. But neutron radiation does not penetrate to the core of the earth and underground shelters can still be effective. It also does not vaporize animals while leaving plants intact.
I am not a nuclear scientist but for years I was one of the leaders of a big city hazmat team and we spent a great deal of time studying nuclear threats. You should go ahead and do a little more research... and probably not on the websites that gave you this phony information.

Actually I got it from my late father in law who was a nuclear physicist and used to run a nuclear power plant down here in Florida until his retirement. He once got in to see Stephen Hawking without an appointment while visiting in London. This guy also knew Teller and Oppenheimer. He was a WWII ace who dropped 18 Zeroes in the Pacific and got himself the Navy Cross. When he passed the marines provided a PLATOON Honor Guard led by a major and almost got him an FA18 flyover of the tiny little cemetery in Lake City, FL. Exigencies of the war prevented that, though.
When I attended the Nuclear Biological and Chemical Warfare school during my time as an officer on active duty, we never were briefed on this weapon, we concentrated on chemicals and the aftermath of nuke strikes, like Effective Downwind Drift and RAD absorption, etc. But I kinda sorta do trust what the old guy said, although I do know that as he entered his late 80's he was a little bit um scattered in his memories and knowledge base. His degree was an SC.D which is actually higher than a PH.D The latter has coursework that includes Philosophy and Humanities while the first is all science and math.

Sorry I had a typo in my response; I said, “Neutron radiation has no electrical charge and the particles vary in size.” It should have said that the particles vary in “intensity”. The other challenge with neutron radiation is that many materials emit gamma radiation when struck by high energy neutrons. Depending on the moisture content concrete can form an effective shield.

I will defer to your father-in-law. I have no knowledge of the type of weapon that you are speaking of, but there are lots of things that I do not know about. I thought that you were referring to a traditional neutron radiation emitting weapon.
I noticed that I had a typo in my response that I just finished correcting. Shielding from neutron radiation is an interesting challenge. Traditional radiation suits do almost nothing; you literally would be better off throwing a wet blanket over your head.

LOL A wet blanket would probably protect you more for a chemical attack where the agent absorbs thru the skin as well as using the respiratory system as a portal of entry. Like the Blister family. Good old fashioned W.W. I era Mustard gas was in this group.
