Amateur Scientist scares Real Scientists

A Swedish amateur scientist wanted to split atoms in his apartment so he obtained radioactive material and set out on his personal voyage of discovery.
His experiments included a "meltdown" in his kitchen (not a nuclear meltdown).
Only after contacting the real scientists with questions were his actions noticed by authorities.
Police confiscated his materials and determined that there were no radiation hazards left in his abode.

Karma or payback?

5 Russian scientists that helped Iran build a nuclear reactor are reported to have died in a recent air crash.
Is this just Karma, or did someone on our side actually do something proactive for once?

Iran nuke program having problems

First the Iranian President admitted that the stuxnet virus actually did "some" harm to their centrifuges (translation: A lot of harm), then they had two of their nuke scientists attacked by bombers on motorcycles.
One of the scientists has died.
Iran has predictably blamed Israel and made the typically ridiculous statements about their "patience" being limited and warning of extreme reprisals.

Bill Clinton lost nuclear codes

While in office as President, Bill Clinton was responsible for many things.
One of the more important things was the "biscuit".
The biscuit is a plastic card that has the current codes required for the President to authorize the use of nuclear weapons.
When the codes change, the military officer carrying the "football" (a briefcase device used to control nuclear weapons release) asks for the old biscuit in order to swap them out.
When the officer asked Bill for the codes one time in 1998, he claimed the card was upstairs in the White House.
A search could not locate the card.
It had been misplaced for a while.

I guess being able to follow simple instructions, be responsible, and protect us from a nuclear strike pale in comparison to dealing with political scandals.

Obama administration and UN throw Israel under the bus

Israel is not only the only acknowledged nuclear power in the Middle East, it is the only government in the area that could be trusted to use such weapons only in an existential defense.
Now the US has voted with others in the UN to try to force Israel to disarm.
The UN resolution does not even mention Iran's nuclear program and attempts to make Israel sign onto the Non-Proliferation Treaty and is a 180 degree shift from the Bush administration's support for Israel's right to self defense.
Even leftist journalists in Israel see this move as a betrayal by the Obama administration and a slap in the face for all Jews.
