There appears to be a direct, immediate and relatively painless way to fight back against our costly dependency on foreign oil and energy blackmail by hostile dictators. We can help ourselves and relieve the pressure on our economy by building nuclear power plants and using our vast natural gas resources. Nuclear power plants are safe and far more ecology-friendly than coal and oil. Disposing of spent nuclear fuel rods is easy and safe. The U.S. Navy has operated many nuclear plants safely for more than a quarter of a century. Nuclear power plants are being used as primary sources of energy in France, Japan, India, Russia and other countries with great success.

Bee discusses the four fearful and separate yet overlapping nuclear races, which describe the world's experience with nuclear weapons since World War II. The first, involving the US, Britain and Nazi Germany, began during World War II and ended with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The second, between the US and the Soviet Union, began at the end of World War II and resulted in the building of enormous nuclear arsenals by both superpowers and the creation of smaller stockpiles by Britain, France and China. The third race involved--and still involves--preventing the spread or "proliferation" of nuclear weapons to other nations and has seen some successes.

The nuclear renaissance is indeed a reality within the United States today. This is apparent from the number of nuclear plant construction applications and new uranium mining applications filed with or expected by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, as well as the major merger-and-acquisitions activity within the nuclear industry. This renaissance stems from such factors as concern over global warming, nuclear energy's advantages over competitor fuels, a significant increase in public and governmental support, major scientific and technological developments, and the financial community's increasing interest in nuclear energy. But, a number of factors could still undermine the success of nuclear energy - such as workforce and component manufacturing constraints, the recent "Wall Street me...

According to accounts during the negotiations on the 123 agreement, India insisted on such a provision as an indication of its status as an advanced nuclear state. According to the March agreement, the "sole grounds" for seeking suspension are "exceptional circumstances limited to" a determination by either party that "continuance of reprocessing of U.S. -obligated material at the Facility would result in a serious threat to the Party's national security" and a determination that "suspension is an unavoidable measure.
