Physically building the bomb itself isn't very complicated.

People who know what they're talking about would disagree with your view on
this issue. If I knew you were going to happen along, I would've jotted down
the names of experts who were interviewed just after the latest intelligence
stinker about Iran's nuclear capabilities. They all said that refining the
fuel was a bitch, but bomb design was the easiest part.

I'm not going to whine and demand a citation. I believe this claim.

Obviously (to me, anyway), "easy" in this context is relative.

Do you really think the technology is such a well guarded secret?

Perhaps not, particularly with the proliferation of knowledge due to internet
connectivity and access. I'm sure much of weapons nuke technology is well
guarded, but not exactly secret anymore. Too bad. sigh

myopic pacifists whine and cry when we forcibly
SILENCE [the] sword rattling [of rogue states].

You never saw me say anything indicating that I'm a pacifist.

Agreed. You're words have revealed that. I suspect, however, that you are
among those that believe that words (diplomacy) should be used well after I
think the shooting should commence.

If you disagree, please prove me wrong.

Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much. You are informed and write
well. I've enjoyed the "conversation".

Oh, wait. This is usenet: Your muther wears COMBAT BOOTS! (So there)
