AMERICA SPREAD THIN: NORTH AMERICA, APRIL 2018

America Spread Thin: West Asia, April 2018

West Asia, or as the U.S. Department of Defense calls it Southwest Asia.  Iran, Iraq and Turkey are sometimes considered part of West Asia and sometimes Central Asia.  I consider Iraq and Turkey part of West Asia and Iran is part of Central Asia.

The following is a smidgen of what the United States is involved in, in the Middle East, during April 2018:

On 04APR2018 an honor guard from MacDill Air Force Base, Florida, receive the body of Major Andreas B. O’Keeffe, who was killed in Iraq while flying an HH-60 Pave Hawk for the 106th Rescue Wing.

At Patrick Air Force Base, Florida, the body of para-rescueman Master Sergeant William Posch, killed in Iraq, was brought home:

Another Florida resident, Staff Sergeant Carl Enis, was also killed in Iraq.

Hawaii Army National Guard personnel with 1st Battalion, 171st Aviation Regiment, deployed to somewhere in South West Asia.

At Fort Shafter, Hawaii, 47 USA (U.S.Army) personnel with the 8th Human Resources Sustainment Center, 8th Theater Sustainment Command, returned from supporting ops in Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan.

On 15APR2018, the Louisiana Air National Guard honored 16 Airmen from the 259th Air Traffic Control Squadron for their service in Iraq: “These 16 Airmen went over there and basically took charge of airfield operations. They did an outstanding job delivering sorties and increasing the payload of goods coming in and out to support our warfighters. The thing that impressed me is that they increased the MedEvac time by 75%!”-Major General Glenn Curtis

North Carolina Army National Guard‘s 449th Combat Aviation Brigade, along with British empire United Kingdom-NATO personnel, conduct aeromedical evacuation (MedEvac) training at Camp Taji, Iraq.   The North Carolina National Guard, and Vanderbilt University, donated medical books to the Iraqi Army Hospital, Camp Taji, at the end of March.

Between the end of March and beginning of April, about 285 personnel from Ohio National Guard‘s 2nd Battalion, 174th Air Defense Artillery Regiment, returned from a year-long deployment to Afghanistan and Iraq.

At Fort Hood, Texas, the U.S. Army 3rd Cavalry Regiment deploying to Iraq:

Red Neck Fail: Covert Civil War in Texas causes bullied immigrant to shoot up school with shotgun?

19MAY2018 (16:40 UTC-07 Tango 06)  29 Ordibehesht 1397/04 Ramadan 1439/05 Ding-Si (4th month) 4716

The Washington Post: Texas school had a shooting plan, armed officers and practice. And still 10 people died.

Yes, another school shooting, don’t blame guns (this latest Texas shooting involved a low-rate of fire pump action shotgun and a revolver, no assault weapons used, realizing that low-rate of fire weapons were used, supposedly by one person, it’s amazing how many people were wounded or killed, and never-mind that the ‘christian’ shooter is from an immigrant family who was bullied at school “for smelling bad”), it’s called a Covert Civil War.

“Bullshit!”: U.S. government shenanigans, April 2018

Incomplete (i-e ‘Tip of the Iceberg’) list of U.S. Federal/State/Local Government self-destruct revelations for April 2018:

Alabama: The state Department of Public Health discovered that immigrant girls under the age of 15, in Montgomery, are getting taxpayer funded abortions: “When a 13-year-old child–with non-English speaking parents–is given an abortion, without a third-party counselor and no suspicion of sexual abuse and no report, we know Montgomery needs new leadership.”-Scott Dawson, christian gubernatorial candidate

According to one political candidate most crime in the city of Mobile can be blamed on a small group of families: “In Mobile, it’s something like, 1,700 families generate 80% of the crime. We know who those families are.”Bill Hightower, gubernatorial candidate, 18APR2018

Seattle Times: Corruption case: Alabama lawmaker, 2 others plead not guilty

Chattanooga Times Free Press: ‘It smells like death’: Alabama endures New York City ‘poop train’

Slate Magazine: It’s Confederate Memorial Day in Alabama

Alaska: You might have heard that residents get income subsidies from the oil industry, but did you know most of it ends up back in the hands of state government (even though there is no income tax in Alaska), and that greedy state lawmakers are trying to find ways to squeeze even more out of residents? 

Seattle Times: 2 Alaska salmon fishermen charged with killing Steller sea lions, and interfering with federal investigations

Arizona: The governor exempted coal fired power-plants from paying state sales taxes. The irony is that the Navajo Generating Station, in Page, is scheduled to shutdown in 2019 anyway, meaning Arizona is losing about $12-million in tax revenues until then!   

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says the epicenter for a growing e. coli epidemic is lettuce farms in Yuma, Arizona.

Arkansas:  NWAOnline: $42M in state aid to fix up Arkansas schools

Arkansas Online: Ecclesia College awarded state taxpayer funded grants before it even applied for those grants!  

Defense rests for ex-Arkansas legislator accused of fraud

Man claiming to being paid by taxpayers to hunt for Big Foot arrested on child porn charges

California: After almost 50 years, and more than 50 rapes and at least 12 murders it turns out The Golden State Killer was at one time a taxpayer funded cop!  Not only that, but it took police using unethical, and possibly court challenge-able (because it possibly violates California’s own Online Privacy Protection law), use of DNA and ancestry data to catch the killer cop.  The suspect killer was also in trouble as a cop, losing his taxpayer funded police job in 1979 after being caught shoplifting.

Homeless crisis in Los Angeles County as desperate officials offer to pay homeowners to take in homeless people!

Washington Post: California limits National Guard’s border mission

KPBS: More local governments in California are resisting the state’s immigrant sanctuary policy

Washington Times: Californians defy Gov’na with nearly 1 million signatures to repeal gas tax

Colorado:  The gov’na approved a $28.9-billion USD taxpayer funded spending bill, claiming it’s the result of a booming economy and federal-level taxpayer funded ‘reforms’.    Money will supposedly be spent on schools, roads and the state employee taxpayer funded retirement system.    The Colorado Petroleum Council could be getting what it wants; an increase the number of oil and gas wells, as well as forcing “nonconsenting owners” to give up access to their mineral rights, it’s known as the ‘pooling statute’. 

Connecticut: State taxpayers could be being forced to pay University of Connecticut student-teachers a new contract worth $15.4-million USD.    

State taxpayers forced to pay for a five years plan to bailout the city of Hartford, despite the Municipal Accountability Review Board saying the bailout plan will fail by the third year: “The City of Hartford should be immediately classified as a Tier IV and should re-look at going into bankruptcy.”-Bart C. Shuldman

Florida: Defense contractor Lockheed-Martin eliminating 2-hundred jobs at its Sikorsky factory in Jupiter, which builds Black Hawk helicopters for the taxpayers of the British empire member Canada!   The Crestview Police Department arrested a U.S. Army 7th Special Forces Group (Airborne) soldier for the murder of his estranged wife.

Tampabay.com: Cops used dead man’s finger in attempt to unlock his phone

Georgia:  It’s been revealed that Newnan Police got nearly $1-million worth of taxpayer funded military equipment from the U.S. Department of Defense, half-a-million of which was classified as “non-lethal”

Chattanooga Times Free Press: Georgia city won’t share police shooting video

Guam: After telling territorial government employees they would be furloughed, supposedly due to unpaid taxes going back to 2016, the gov’na suddenly reversed course due to cutting $30-million USD from the general fund budget and because of a sudden approval of immigrant work visas!  The gov’na also said it was possible that up to $25-million in tax refunds could be issued.

Hawaii:  The federal government is suing defunct Sandwich Isles Communications in an attempt to recover 128-million taxpayer dollars, loaned to the company through the U.S. Department of Agriculture to provide phone service to rural areas.

Idaho: It’s been revealed that Gov’na Butch Otter pardoned a convicted drug felon, back in February, only now was it made public.  The Gov’na said it was because the convict successfully obtained a doctorate degree while on parole.  A former state representative was removed from the May primary elections because she is now living in a new district, Idaho law says you must reside for at least a year in your legislative district before you can run for election.  The greedy leaders of Boise are spending taxpayer funding on a new propaganda operation called Livability Ambassadors Program where “selected community members” will tour selected city sites and then “will be expected to share their experiences….through social media”.   Owyhee County Sheriff’s Department warning that a man is going around claiming he’s an undercover cop, already four people have been victimized.

Illinois: The city of Harvey is on the verge of bankruptcy, already laid off police and firefighters after $1.4-million in tax revenues were blocked by the Cook County Circuit Court.  The state Appellate Court overturned the Cook County Court’s ruling. Harvey is in the debt hole by as much as $7-million USD, and that’s just for its employee retirement fund! Did you know that Cook County charges a tax on vehicles bought outside of the county?   Lead contamination found in the city of Chicago‘s tap water, three out of every ten residences contaminated.   A vehicle sharing program has been suspended in a Chicago ward, primarily because of the construction of the Obama Presidential Library.   The gov’na is spending tax dollars traveling to Germany and Poland, supposedly in an attempt to increase tourism from those countries.  Taxpayers being forced to pay for 5G cell phone service installation, this after the state increased income tax rates last year.  The Illinois Pharmacy Association says ObamaCare-ACA insurance companies are paying the more than 5-hundred independent pharmacies less than what it actually costs them to buy the drugs at wholesale, and that ObamaCare-ACA ‘benefits managers’ (like CVS) are actually favoring the big corporate pharmacies: “It’s kind of a predatory market practice and misuse of state tax dollars.”-Garth Reynolds, Illinois Pharmacists Association

Indiana:  The gov’na announced he’s going on taxpayer funded trips to Europe and Israel, supposedly in an attempt to increase economic development.  British empire Commonwealth member India based InfoTech (IT) contractor InfoSys getting at least $101.8-million in state and local taxpayer incentives to build a massive training and data center at now vacant terminal of the Indianapolis International Airport, the ecstatic gov’na Eric Holcomb referred to the bribery by saying “This is a powerful partnership. It’s going to change the way we do business.”  You know your capitalist economy is a lie when taxpayers are forced to shell-out millions of dollars to create jobs (isn’t that communism?).  By the way most of the news media in Indiana failed to mention how much the InfoSys deal was costing taxpayers, one source even lied and said such info wasn’t available, however, news sources outside the state had the taxpayer rape data.

Iowa:  An ‘ally’ of the gov’na now accused of sexual harassment, the gov’na swears she didn’t know. The Iowa Pharmacy Association says ObamaCare-ACA insurance companies are paying  independent pharmacies less than what it actually costs them to buy the drugs at wholesale, and that ObamaCare-ACA ‘benefits managers’ like CVS are actually favoring the big corporate pharmacies.  And in response to a statement by a CVS Caremark spokesperson about price adjustments, Representative John Forbes, who is also a pharmacist, actually said “Bullshit!”

Kansas:  State legislators claim they can spend more money on education because they’ve jacked-up future tax collections by $540-million USD between now and June 2019!  However, the state Supreme Court says the proposed $4-billion in education funding still isn’t enough!  Politicians started jacking up state taxes in 2017.   Three men convicted in federal court of planning to blow up a ‘refugee’ apartment complex in Garden City.  The small city of 27-thousand people is known as a “meatpacking town” and apparently the ‘refugees’ are being brought in as cheap labor at the meat packaging plant at the expense of federal taxpayers.  The influx of ‘refugees’ and immigrants began at the end of 2013 under the Obama regime.  Even an NPR report from December 2013 suggested the use of immigrants and ‘refugees’ by unAmerican corporate America is intentional saying “…many plants have moved to rural Midwestern towns, which have seen a huge influx of immigrants as a result.”,  as well as “Garden City’s refugee and immigrant population is expected to grow, as Tyson continues recruiting more workers.”  The 2013 NPR report also revealed that by using immigrants and ‘refugees’ that “requests for food stamps are up 230 percent”

Kentucky: Massive drug addiction and resulting deaths causing requests for autopsies to skyrocket 26% since 2013, and the state does not have the funding to deal with it.  As a result the gov’na suggested moving Medical Examiner’s Office pathologists from direct state employment to indirect employment through universities, which would come with a pay raise but would also mean those pathologists would lose their state employee retirement accounts. Perhaps it’s actually a covert plan to save the state’s troubled employee retirement system?   The state Department of Education is recommending direct state control of Jefferson County Public Schools, after a year long audit revealed local ignorance regarding how to use funding for the school district, among other major problems.

Massachusetts: Providing body cameras for Boston cops will cost taxpayers $2-million USD in 2019.  At one time Boston was known for its rebellion against unfair taxes, now there’s a new push to create taxes that target specific income groups. 

Michigan:  A state judge ruled it’s unconstitutional to use taxpayer money to fund private schools, this after state ‘christian’ lawmakers gave 5-million tax dollars to religious schools in the past two years!  Taxpayers of Michigan will be forced to help fund a British empire United Kingdom based study on driverless cars! 

Minnesota:  Texas based Enbridge Energy spent $5-million USD bribing, I mean lobbying state politicians in 2017, making it the most costly state lobbying effort since 2007.  A now former FBI counter-terrorism agent, from Minnesota, pled guilty to leaking classified government documents to the mainstream ‘fake’ news media. 

Mississippi: More proof the criminal justice system is about making money as “Current Mississippi law requires an inmate to pay a monthly $55 fee when he or she is paroled…”  It’s been revealed that Japan based Toyota is getting even more taxpayer funded incentives to re-tool its Blue Springs Corolla factory, yet how much has not been revealed.  One of the taxpayer funded incentives rewards Toyota for paying employees more than $41-thousand USD per year.  Past state and local taxpayer funding for Toyota amounted to $325-million.  If the only way you can create ‘private sector’ jobs is with taxpayer funding then your capitalist/corporate economic system has failed.

Missouri: The gov’na is now charged with felony computer tampering regarding the theft of a charity list from his own charity organization, The Mission Continues.

Montana:  One of the biggest recycling operations in the state, Aware Incorporated, shutting down ops in Butte due to the crashing prices of recycled materials and crashing state taxpayer funded subsidies for recycling companies.  

Nebraska: A new law was created to protect state taxpayers from an ‘inadvertent’ increase in state taxes, which supposedly could be caused by the Trump Tax Reforms of 2017.   Another new law ensures “that gun control extremists won’t have access” to gun owner’s personal information.

Nevada:  Atlantic Richfield, owner of the former Anaconda copper mine-now a federal SuperFund site, suddenly halted home delivery of bottled water to the Yerington Paiute Tribe: “I believe that this dismissive, arrogant act means to punish us by cutting off our water in an attempt to pressure us to stop fighting for our legal rights.”-Laurie Thom, Tribal Chairman

New Jersey:  A new law automatically registers people to vote when they get a drivers license or I-D card.  The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says New Jersey has the highest rate of autism in their latest survey.   U.S. Senator Robert Menendez ordered to pay-back ‘gifts’ he got from a doctor whom he actively promoted by using his position as a U.S. senator.  

New Mexico: Albuquerque now requires federal immigration agents to get a warrant before entering the cityState taxpayers have been funding up to 75% of job training for call center employees, already the state has set aside as much as $9-million USD for this year’s call center job training!  On top of that, taxpayer funded subsidies for job training for all industries is at $13.7-million!  One of the biggest recipients of call center training subsidies is Ohio based Convergys, who has already laid off 258 New Mexicans so far this year!  To prove that the U.S. is now run by communists, the state Legislative Finance Committee justified the spending of working class taxes to create working class jobs as a way of “…creating well-paying opportunities for a skilled labor force that in turn bolsters the state’s average income and incentivizes workers to stay.”

New York:  Yet another reason that more and more people are leaving NYC as the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge is now considered the most expensive toll bridge in the United States.  State taxpayers being forced to create a new Medicaid Doula (Greek for ‘servant’) system in an attempt to stop the unusually high maternal mortality rate among ‘black’ women.

North Carolina: The paranoid gov’na wants taxpayers to fork-over an additional $130-million USD for school building safety improvements and to hire hundreds of additional school nurses, psychologists and police officers.

North Dakota: The gov’na ordered state agencies to prep for major taxpayer funding cuts, caused by a reduction in budget funding of $1.7-million USD as a result of crashing petroleum industry activity.

Ohio: The Ohio Pharmacy Association says ObamaCare-ACA insurance companies are paying  independent pharmacies less than what it actually costs them to buy the drugs at wholesale, and that ObamaCare-ACA ‘benefits managers’ are actually favoring the big corporate pharmacies like CVS, who just happens to be the subcontracted pharmacy benefit manager.  As a result, 165 independent pharmacies in Ohio have gone out-of-business in the past two years!   Taxpayers funding a new law to study why Ohio courts have been reluctant to upload criminal records to the anti-gun National Instant Criminal Background Check System.

Oklahoma: A new law changes the way people convicted of drug crimes, including repeat offenders, are treated by the state’s criminal justice system.  But don’t think it’s for ‘humanitarian’ reasons, the state prison system is overcrowded with drug crime offenders and if something isn’t done to reduce the prison population then it’s expected that taxpayers would have to fork-over more than $1.2-billion USD to build new prisons over the next ten years.

Oregon: The state is being overwhelmed with data concerning its legalized ganja program.  By law the 1-thousand-8-hundred licensed Mary-Jane dealers have to input data everyday into the state Cannabis Tracking System, the result is that state law enforcers can’t deal with the data!

Pennsylvania: A failed political candidate and assistant vice president of Villanova University shot and killed by the wife of her lover, after getting caught: “You had a man who was married who was having an affair with this other woman.

Deutschland Über Alles!: Revell USA is dead, long live Revell Germany!

12MAY2018 /21:37 UTC-07 Tango 06  (23 Ordibehesht 1397/27 Sha’ban 1439/28 Ding-Si 4716)

“It is a sad time for the model building community… I have not seen anything ‘official’ from Revell, but It has been confirmed to me by a reliable source that Revell USA has in fact closed their doors.”-UP Scale Hobbies facebook post

Another victim of the so called recovered economy, the end of a long model building era in the United States, Revell USA (Revell-Monogram) is dead!

Starting out in California in 1943, as a subcontractor for plastics manufacturers, its first job reportedly being parts for washing machines, followed by anything relating to HO (1:87) scale train sets.   It was known as Precision Specialties.

When the company decided to focus on toys the name was changed to Revell (Wikipedia says it’s from the French word reveille, however Revell is a English/French family name that goes back to medieval times).  In the 1950s the focus was originally on model cars, but shifted to U.S. Navy ships, the most infamous being the constantly re-issued and horribly inaccurate USS Missouri.  This is humorous because supposedly the USN kits were considered so accurate that the Soviet Union bought Revell kits to learn about U.S. warship development (maybe that’s why the U.S.S.R. was constantly behind in the naval arms race).

Purportedly this crappy kit is what got the ball rollin' for Revell

Purportedly this crappy kit is what got the ball rollin’ for Revell

The success of Revell’s ship kits led to the company producing kits of almost anything you can think of.  However, this didn’t stop Revell from succumbing to the same economic forces as other industries, as I’ve previously explained in 1:72 SHOCK & AWE LOCKHEED F-104 STARFIGHTER, OR, WHY YOU CAN’T TRUST SCALE DRAWINGS! PLUS MASSIVE HISTORICAL CONFUSION ABOUT REVELL-MONOGRAM!

Monogram's classic 1974 issue Do 335, Monogram was Revell's biggest competitor at that time

Monogram’s classic 1974 issue Do 335, Monogram was Revell’s biggest U.S. competitor at that time

By 2012, longtime model kit builders thought economic bad times were over for Revell when an employee owned, Illinois based company, called Hobbico bought and merged Revell USA and Revell Germany (GmbH).  Wrong again!  In January 2018, Hobbico went bankrupt busted and began liquidating its divisions.  Immediately, Revell Germany issued a statement saying they were not impacted (“Hobbico’s bankruptcy filing was made in the United States and is strictly limited to the company’s U.S. operations, Revell-Germany is unaffected.”).

For decades (since 1970s) Revell Germany has reissued British Frog kits

For decades (since 1970s) Revell Germany has reissued British Frog kits

Revell USA production was halted in April, even shipments of already packaged kits were stopped. A group of investors called Quantum Capital Partners aus München (for some odd reason many U.S. and British sources are calling the group Blitz GmbH, my source is Revell Germany itself) which bought both Revell Germany and Revell USA.

The month before Revell was sold-off, Revell USA announced the much longed for reissue of the coveted Deal’s Wheels Baja Humbug

According to bankruptcy court documents, on 13APR2018 Quantum Capital Partners of Munich won the rights to Revell with a bid of about $3.9-million USD.  Revell USA ceased to exist, Revell Germany will continue as if nothing had happened.  I should point out that the $3.9-million was the high bid, apparently there was only one other bidder, it’s just more proof the model kit industry is in decline.  Hobbico was hoping for $10-million.

According to a press release by Revell Germany, Deutschland is the new home base for all Revell operations, including ops in North America: “Revell is pleased to partner with Quantum Capital Partners who supports the company in its further international growth.  At this point, I would also like to thank all trading and business partners for the Thank you for your confidence during the transition period in recent weeks.”-Stefan Krings, president of Revell Germany

“Revell is a renowned and well-established company and has been an impressive and internationally established successful toy brand. We will build on this strength and the brand with its unique positioning as a model maker….”-Steffen Görig, Quantum Capital Partners

Since its founding in 2008, Quantum Capital Partners (QCP) has taken over several dozens of companies including BASF, Bosch, Deutsche Bahn and even Airbus (even joining with the Islamic Investment Bank to make sure Airbus aircraft are Shariah compliant)!

By the way, Hobbico’s demise also affected Japan’s Hasegawa and Italy’s Italeri as Hobbico had become the distributor of those brands in the United States.

Italeri's old M47 (from late 1970s) is so good that recently Korea's Academy issued it

America Spread Thin: North America, April 2018

These are just a few of the military operations happening across the North American region for the Gregorian month of April, 2018.

Canada: USS Pearl Harbor arrived in Victoria, British Columbia 12APR2018.  Commander Ben Miller stated “This visit helps to demonstrate the continuing commitment the U.S. has to our long-standing and important relationship with Canada……   the port visit gives the crew of Pearl Harbor a chance for some rest and relaxation…”  That taxpayer funded R&R includes visits to the Craigdarroch Castle, British Columbia Parliament buildings, Butchart Gardens, Fisherman’s Warf Park and the Fisgard Lighthouse.

El Salvador: Video previewing operation Beyond the Horizon scheduled for May, in which lots of U.S. tax dollars will be spent on El Salvador. The video shows U.S. taxpayer funded activities from previous Beyond the Horizon operations:

Guatemala: U.S. Naval Forces Southern Command/U.S. 4th Fleet conducting operation Continuing Promise 2018, spending your tax dollars not just on military training engagements, but on medical, dental, and veterinary help for silly-vilians.

Taxpayer funded USAF delivered a fire truck and ambulance to Tecpan, Guatemala, 20APR2018, as part of the evil USAID (United States Agency for International Development) Denton Program.  Supposedly the vehicles were paid for by religious organization Mission of Love Foundation.  As of March 2018, ‘christian’ Mission of Love Foundation, via USAID’s taxpayer funded Denton Program, has conducted 60 ‘missions’ to Guatemala: “We work on five continents with an all-volunteer force….. With a group of volunteers, the Denton Program and the Air Force together are making this possible for those in need. I couldn’t do it alone. I am just a facilitator.”-Kathleen Price, Mission of Love Foundation

Haiti: On 07APR2018, the U.S. Coast Guard captured and repatriated about 50 migrants from Haiti.

Mexico: Leaders of the Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional met with U.S. Army North (Fifth Army) as well as Arizona, New Mexico and Texas National Guards, along with U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, in Tucson, Arizona: “We not only have the huge responsibility as customs and border protection, we need this to be a team effort with U.S. Army North, Deptartment of Defense, Mexico and other agencies. By coming together we are able to exponentially provide security and safety for citizens in Mexico and the U.S.”-Juventino F. Pacheco, Assistant Chief Patrol Agent, Foreign Operations Branch, Tucson Sector Border Patrol  (THE WALL IS GOING UP, U.S. TAXPAYERS ARE FUNDING IT!)

United States:

So much for ObamaCare, operation Arctic Care involves U.S. regular forces, Alaska National Guard and British empire Canadian military forces providing taxpayer funded medical help to ‘underserved regions’ of Alaska.

This is not a CBRN drill, on 11APR2018 several nuke waste drums exploded at the U.S. Navy’s Idaho National Laboratory. Initially it was reported as one drum, but a week later it was revealed that at least three more drums exploded.  The nuke waste is said to have come to Idaho from Rocky Flats Plant in  Colorado, in the 1960s.  Contractor Fluor Idaho stated that the decades old waste had just been re-packed into 55-gallon drums the morning of the explosions. The latest nuke waste explosions are significant because the explosions at New Mexico’s WIPP (in 2014) might have involved nuke waste packaged at the Idaho National Laboratory.
