Top secret flights carrying nuclear waste from Scotland to USA to continue until late 2019
Scottish Express ^ | 04/16/2018 | JIM LAWSON

So far there have been four US Air Force flights carrying highly enriched uranium bound for South Carolina, taking off from Wick John O’Groats Airport, in Caithness, at weekends as the base is closed to civilian aircrafts on Saturdays.

Dounreay, the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, Police Scotland, the Civil Nuclear Constabulary and the airport have all refused to comment.

The deal was trumpeted by former prime minister David Cameron and ex-US president Barack Obama, arranging for highly enriched uranium – the basic building block for a nuclear bomb – to be flown from Wick to the US in return for “medical grade” uranium to make radioisotopes for detecting cancer.

Where is the EPA on this and why are they concerned about leaks in the water? Al we hear about on the MSM is how Trump is “rolling back” standards.

Probably headed for K-Area.

That place is the most heavily guarded I’ve ever seen. It’s like a level in a video game. Soldiers in body armor with machine guns, patrolling armored vehicles, minigun implacements, the works. As long as no guys named Solid Snake show up, I would say goodbye to anyone trying to get in there.

"Next question how highly enriched with which isotope?"

U-235, and enrichment depends on bomb design. There are only two types of fission bombs, uranium and plutonium. Only uranium is enriched. Plutonium is produced by a different route than enrichment.

This activity was initiated by OBAMA. Another reason to hang him by his gonads.

I wonder why we, the USA, is the world’s excrement dumping ground?

I wonder why the leaks of radioactive material in Indian Country are not reported with the medical problems of the near Indian populations?

Is this part of the NWO plan to exterminate us, the cockroaches? We certainly can’t stop this, can we? I can just imagine a whole series of areas leaking radioactive fuels, rods, oils, etc. into the ground water or into the air. Why maybe all the cockroaches will have babies who are radioactive resistant?

This makes me furious. How much did or do the Scotch pay to have us take their excrement? Or is this how Obama got rich? I means he wasn’t rich until he hit the WH, was he? And we still don’t know whether or not he is legitimate. And just think about how they talk about Trump! The liberal media, and that seems to be most it, are not mentioning this...”Nothing here, folks. Move on along!”

Very poorly written article.
Enriched Uranium is NOT nuclear waste.
Uranium is not used in medical field to treat cancer.

It sounds like a reactor is being decommissioned and the fuel being reprocessed in the USA.
Even this sounds strange as France is the world leader in reprocessing nuclear fuel.

I always envisioned Scotland as being more rugged, rustic, and less populated the farther north you went.

You know, sorta like Canada where many roads peter out as you head to the Arctic Circle.

But nope. At the very northern tip of Scotland is/was a nuclear plant.
