[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Nuclear capabilities - !!!

Posted: 7/13/2006 4:51:46 PM EDT

With the current situation in the middle east, I became interested in the nuclear capabilities of Israel versus the the arab world.

I googled it up, and I came up with the following site:

www.fas.org/nuke/guide/summary.htm

While most of it was pretty much as I had expected, I was quite surprised by the numbers from both france and china. I wouldn't have expected that france was better fortified than china, and I wouldn't have suspected that china was so poorly equipped.

BTW, that site is current as of 1999. If someone has more recent figures, please post them.

What? If I've googled up some bad info, I'd like to see something accurate.

Or are you gonna just keep slapping me?
