Iran condemns US nuclear test
Iran condemned the United States’ latest nuclear test on Saturday, saying it reflected “inattention to full disarmament which is a deep-seated demand of international public opinion.”
Foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast made the remarks to state television, the Agence France-Presse reports, after the U.S. Energy Department on Wednesday conducted a “subcritical” test at an underground site in Nevada. The limited test was the first since February 2011.
Mehmanparast said Iran was “one of the victims of weapons of mass destruction” during its war with Iraq and as such “will pursue the supreme leader’s fatwa regarding the prohibition of production, storage or use of such weapons until it has been fully realized.”
The United States is leading an international coalition to impose harsh sanctions on Iran to get the country to abandon its alleged nuclear weapons program.
Iran says its program is for peaceful purposes only, such as energy production and medical research.

Why is the stupid US still testing this shit? You would think by now, they would understand how this stuff works, and that it will work.
Or perhaps this more political. Either way stupid.

This is just more sabre rattling from the dying Empire. Just think about how many taxpayer’s dollars disappeared in a flash of radiation! Many millions gone in a split second! And we have thousands more scattered around the world waiting for an ‘accident’ to happen.
Last count, there were about 20,000 of these city killers in the nuclear arsenals of the world. Will we cause our own extinction by nukes or climate change? Stay tuned in…
