Weeks after Fukushima alleged terrorists were found making their way towards Sellafield in the UK. The obvious viability of this hypothetical attack became apparent after March 11th.
- Typhon 15y agoYes, and ? Nothing happened. The fact is that terrorists want to target nuclear plants. What's unlikely is that any of them should succeed. Terrorism isn't that easy.
- eliasmacpherson 15y agoOver a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everything drops to zero - and nuclear has a pretty long timeline.
- moe 15y agoIt seems about as unlikely as someone flying planes into the world trade center... But gladly terrorism isn't that easy, right?
- Typhon 15y agoYes, it is probably more unlikely than a big earthquake followed by a tsunami. How many terrorist attacks of that scale have been successfully conducted ? Over the last twenty years, only one. During the same period, there has been a dozen of large-scale earthquakes. And as I said, you're fare more likely to die from a car accident than from any big disaster you see on television.
