missing or vanishing service personnel. The vanishing for weapons-cause servicemen is likely an illusion. Accidents seem a little wild but motorcycle accidents are the top ranked non combat killer of Air Force personnel. That statistical notice could be indicative of something, but it doesn't have to be secret. I'd make sure it was leaked, but these kinds of weapons are nothing you can hide your equipment from. Dispersion and multiple copies is about as good as you can get. And one buster won't work except to show intent. I do NOT think the underground hardened facility could take a direct surface blast of the Submarine Launched ballistic missile 5 megaton variety from a boomer and survive. Yes it would be an inspiring mess. It could lead to III. Quickly. Of course, the cruise missile bunker buster needs to be "tested" on something, right, something military and hardened. So why not Iran? It is no good to have a variety of weapons if you can't pick a fight or encourage one so you can touch them with a new weapon. What is America, if not the military industrial government milking machine complex? If the goal is to counter the threat of nuclear weapons from Iran as entered into the Islamic Jihadic world or to stop Iran from meddling in the Iraq exercise, it may take several actions. Of course, I am familiar with the W-80 and the delivery capacity of the cruise missiles or their deployment. I apologize for misunderstanding what was your issue. Now, a good thorough world war would still not remove the CO2 but could curtail the coming century's increase. Over nuclear bunker busters, and even boomer weapons, I favor an engineered viral pandemic or good destructively engineered selectively formed bacteria for worldwide release. Or maybe an intelligent group of leaders. I do agree something is occurring with the cruise missiles and would suggest the non-secrecy, or leak of it has been intentional propaganda. That is all we need. A war so a State of Emergency can be called and Martial Law covering all US states and territories and people, so we can keep the Bush or his named brother as successor. . .something to get the new imperial family set up. Maybe terrorize American's and, yeah keep the vote to the Congress, suspend elections and get the Court to say the executive as unlimited power in war time... I'm sure the missing weapon will show up somewhere. Watch out or "They" will think you are a conspiracy theorist. nice story anyways jd.

We have "boomers". Submerged, all over the planet, quietly. We do not need to remove one H-bomb from an old B-52 collection and "lose" it -- unless someone of the good ole boys in the current administration's neocon flakers group has figured out a way to really profit from selling an H-bomb nuke to terrorists. I don't buy it. Nuclear War, with H-bombs to turn much of the Middle East into an Alamogordo-white-sands greenish glass -- at least the places dear to heart -- would take at most, one boomer. Maybe smuggle the H-bomb into Iran for use at their facility? Nah. Atom bombs are one thing. Hydrogen bombs are a hundred times more destructive. I suspect if an H-bomb is missing, it has been sold. But it could have been "lost." The ones "lost" in accidents are scary enough. We have toned our bombs down to 'civilized' size: 5 megatons -- whereas the Russian boomers carry a lot of less accurately targetable 20 megaton ordnance. Only the nihilistic radicals of the religious sort (any of several opposing religions) would advocate their use. One thing certain. If used, we all failed. If used, there will be much green glass.
