We’re Nuked Already …

“2053” – This is the number of nuclear explosions conducted in various parts of the globe from 1954-1998.

It’s hard to believe there’s not a lot of radioactive babies in the western half of the country.

Wasn’t me. I was in Oregon.

Also: Where’s Israel?

@nojo:

Or South Africa.

Alas, this video was devised from publicly available data. Chances are the numbers would be higher for all countries shown if we could track all explosions. And we’d have to add in a few countries, too.

That made my day. Thank you so much. Though perhaps it explains AZ, NV CA politics. The only thing I don’t understand is while we were nuking the West why they didn’t take out that asshole Mike Lee.

@Serolf Divad: So we’ve already fought several nukular wars. We just bombed our own countries instead of the enemy’s.

Evidently our planet was able to absorb over 2,000 self-inflicted wounds so we had to come up with something a little more cataclysmic in the quest for our own suicide. BP’s nightmare gusher may manage to tip the scales too far out of balance to allow any recovery in the short term.

Jon Stewart was poking fun at the “Day of Prayer” in Louisiana last night. He said since God had hidden the oil under 1 mile of water and 2.5 miles of rock that he had already done his part to prevent this disaster.
