Divine Strake back in Nevada

[Waya]

The fight is on, again. Sen. Pete Domenici, R-N.M., a member of the Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, says the Defense Threat Reduction Agency told him the Divine Strake test explosion of 700 tons of ammonium nitrate and fuel oil will take place at the Nevada Test Site.

After public outcry and legal machinations, the test, which was to have taken place last summer at the NTS, was rerouted first to a gravel quarry in Indiana, then to White Sands, N.M. and now it's back in southern Nevada.

Take off the gloves, it's time to go bare knuckles against this project and flush it once and for all.

This test is likely to kick up settled radioactivity from the desert floor and spew it into the atmosphere, only to be dumped at the will of the jet stream who knows where.

They have been in the forefront of stopping this test and drawing attention to it. wsdp.org
Also, Randi Rhodes @ air america brought a lot of attention to this test several months ago when it appeared to be stopped for good.
Let's hope that we can get the word out and everyone motivated again.
I dont understand the test. Who are we thinking of nuking this time? Iran? That would not be too swift on our part. I hope that cooler heads will prevail, but I'm not counting on it.
