| Uhhuh, good luck buying enough of it to make a bomb, let alone processing it. |

Don't worry too much about it. The Uranium at that website is the 238 grade. To make a WMD, you have to have 235 grade uranium. In order to get that you have to take your 238 grade uranium, turn it into a gas form, run it through several thousand filters, then a magnetic field, and finally a centrifuge. By the time all that is done, you're left with about 1% of the material you started with left. To make it into a bomb requires complicated electronics.
So no your average psychopatich murderer would not be able to make much use of the material at the website. |
