Nuclear Power Plants: Pre-Deployed Weapons of Mass Destruction

That's what nuclear power plants are. And that's another very big reason--demonstrated again in recent days with the disclosurewww.rt.com/news/336985-brussels-terror-nuclear-plants/ that two of the Brussels terrorists were planning attacks on Belgian nuclear plants--why they must be eliminated.

Nuclear power plants are sitting ducks for terrorists. With most positioned along bays and rivers because of their need for massive amounts of coolant water, they provide a clear shot. They are fully exposed for aerial strikes.

The consequences of such an attack could far outweigh the impacts of 9/11 and, according to the U.S. 9/11 Commission, also originally considered in that attack was the use of hijacked planes to attack "unidentified nuclear power plants." The Indian Point nuclear plants 26 miles north of New York City were believed to be candidates. http://www.resilience.org/stories/2004-07-25/911-report-reveals-al-qaeda-ringleader-contemplated-ny-area-nuclear-power-plant-p
