Burma Seeks Nukes

According to this news report Burma (Myanmar) is building nukes: http://www.voanews.com/english/2009-08-03-voa16.cfm

It says: Researchers in Thailand say two defectors from Burma say the military government has a secret nuclear program that aims to build nuclear weapons, and could have a nuclear test as soon as five years from now. The two defectors said that a hidden nuclear complex is being built in caves excavated in a mountainous area of northern Burma.

The defectors said that they were directly involved in the secret program, and that Burma's goal is to build nuclear weapons.

Excerpt over. Alright, so the North Korean bunker connection comes to light once more. Where is the global attention on this? While we in the U.S. watch beer get warm at the White House nuclear missiles are being developed to get hot enough to create plasma when used. (I say plasma because the weapons being developed today are far more powerful than the ones that almost turned Japan to glass).

However, Russia enters the picture as well:

One of the defectors, a former Burmese army officer, told researchers he was trained in Moscow as part of Burma's plans for a "nuclear battalion" of one thousand men to build the weapons.

The other said he handled Burma's nuclear contracts with Moscow and Pyongyang and arranged the night-time delivery of equipment from North Korea.

Phil Thornton is a freelance journalist based in Thailand and the other researcher who interviewed the men. He says, although the defectors did not know each other, their stories agreed on the main facts, lending some weight to their credibility.

Excerpt over. A nuclear battalion trained in Moscow. Russia is now connected to Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Burma's nuclear programs by my tally. Russia always says it is for civilian purposes. When it comes to Iran, Venezuela, and other countries that has at least some random chance of being true. However, for Burma and North Korea that is impossible: It is a government program. There is no capitalism, everything is government run. That goes in the opposite sense of being civilian.

There are three levels of nuclear energy: military, government, and civilian. Military is explained by you using common sense. Civilian involves businesses. Government is usually a fusion of civilian and military purposes, which is what these programs seem to be: both. That is why they can hide their military portions until they have what they need to fast track military research.

So, lets update my list when I started this blog:

I see a series of alliances forming in the world against the United States. In these alliances of the world I see four nations leading the pack.
1. Russia
2. Iran
3. Venezuela
4. China
I see the following nations being part of the alliance by affiliation to one or more of these nations.
V- Venezuela C-China I-Iran R-Russia, NK-North Korea, simple enough so lets go.
1. Syria I R C
2. Lebanon I
3. Ecuador V I R
4. Peru V
5. Bolivia V I
6. Burma (Myanmar) R NK
7. Nicaragua V R
8. Cuba V R I C
9. North Korea C
10. Serbia R
11. Somalia I
12. Pakistan C I R
13. Belarus R
14. Abkhazia R
15. South Ossetia R
16. Eritrea I
Then you have other nations unaffiliated but they hate the United States anyway.
1. Zimbabwe (Power sharing must work for me to revise this.)
2. Sudan
3. Mexico (If government loses civil war.)
4. Vietnam (If not taken over by China.)
5. Chile (If ties with Cuba and Venezuela continue to strengthen.)
6. Libya (Minor player at the moment, but one of the most powerful African states led by Pan-Am bomber Gadaffi. Gadaffi holds African Union presidency this rotation. The agenda of removing opposition is in direct conflict to our promotion of democracy.)
8. Kazakstan, other Central Asian countries (More trade, money, and promises from Russia, their former rulers during the Soviet era, than anyone else.)
Political Battlegrounds:
1. Honduras (Mitchelleti vs Zelaya)
2. Peru
3. Somalia (Government vs Islamists)
4. Yemen
5. Palestine (Hamas vs Fatah)
6. Pakistan (Government vs Taliban, Islamists)
Hidden Possibilities:
1. Sri Lanka
2. Madagascar
3. Turkey
4. El Salvador
5. Guyana
6. Nigeria
7. Guatemala
8. Argentina
9. Costa Rica
