India's Nuclear Arsenal
Though India has not made any official statements about the size of it nuclear arsenal, the NRDC estimates that India has a stockpile of approximately 30-35 nuclear warheads and claims that India is producing additional nuclear materials. Joseph Cirincione at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace (3) estimates that India has produced enough weapons-grade plutonium for 50-90 nuclear weapons and a smaller but unknown quantity of weapons-grade uranium. Weapons-grade plutonium production takes place at the Bhabha Atomic Research Center, which is home to the Cirus reactor acquired from Canada, to the indigenous Dhruva reactor, and to a plutonium separation facility.


Remind me again who has been the only country ever to use nuclear weapons?
 
Apparently the fact that Gaza has no more electricity and is plunged into darkness does not qualify as a World Event.

So I'm adding it to an existing Israel thread.

Gaza's only power plant runs out of fuel, shuts down.

"At least 800,000 people are now in darkness. The catastrophe will affect hospitals, medical clinics, water wells, houses, factories, all aspects of life."

Several thousand residents staged a candle-lit march through Gaza City after the blackout.

Gaza's only electrical plant shut down Sunday after Israel blocked the shipment of fuel that powers them, plunging Gaza City into darkness and sending already beleaguered Gazans to stock up on food and batteries in anticipation of long, dark, cold days ahead.

"In fact, the headline accompanied a story on the declaration of a boycott against German goods and products. The story was not represented as a "declaration of war" by the world media; the headline occurred only in a mass market British newspaper reflecting the sensationalistic style of what is now known as the tabloid press in the UK. Nizkor points out the attempted economic and financial boycott was declared in response to the (then) alleged anti-Semitic actions by the Nazi government of Adolf Hitler.[2] The date of the article is important because it almost coincides with the so-called Ermächtigungsgesetz[3][4] which passed parliament the day before (the Ermächtigungsgesetz, however, does not refer to Jews in any way, but to the German legislative process)."

:rolleyes:

As much as the Palestinian rockets hurt Israel.

Besides, the Israelis are occupying Palestinian land and building on their homes and villages.

In any country under the sun, they have a right to resist foreign occupation, by any means. The Dutch would too.

The Israelis do NOT have a right to seal them off.
 
it was an economic boycot, not a declarations of war.. :wallbang:

Post WWI Germany, it was a declaration of war.

Now if only the Jews had left the country or supported Hitler, they would not have been killed <---this is your argument.

Of course, and in this case it means loosing power.. :shrug:
