Reaction to Final events

In light of the fact that differing reports are coming out of the swat valley we would like to set the facts straight. Although the Taliban did manage to expose some of the Uranium-235 used in making the cores of the weapons, actual radiation was minimal. Uranium is only very slightly radioactive before it undergoes a fission reaction, simply exposing the Uranium would not cause anywhere slightly near the devastation reported. After the fission reaction has occurred the split uranium molecule is very radioactive, the Chernobyl disaster was caused by a nuclear reaction that got out of control. No nuclear reaction took place during the raid of the compound, the uranium was simply exposed. Although the exact results are still unknown we must strongly disagree with the UN official who stated that "fifty miles around this plant will be devastated for years". However, unfortunately there will be some damage and I must pledge my full support to any victims of this event there may be, as any compassionate man would i will make sure that the world provides this small amount of victims with any and all support needed. We must view these events as a success for these reasons, the Taliban is no longer in control of nuclear material, many of their fighters have died, the world has and will continue to band together to crush their evil organization, the freely elected government of Pakistan still stands and our scientists believe that the effects of radiation will be minimal. Due to the remote nature of the facility, the fact that almost two million civilians have been evacuated in order to prevent them from being harmed by the Taliban, and what appears to be a fairly unharmful release of radiation we believe that no civilians have or will die as a result of this crisis. This is great news because almost 1 billion people were believed to be in range of the Taliban's missiles before it was announced that the Pakistani government had wisely allowed the United States of America to place unbreakable security codes on the missiles. Although we have won this great victory over the Taliban it is necasarry that we keep them on the run, we must go for the jugular!
