Mishap in dismantling nuclear warhead
AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 15 (UPI) -- A watchdog group charges a nuclear warhead nearly exploded in Texas when it was being dismantled at the government's Pantex facility near Amarillo.
The Project on Government Oversight says it has been told by knowledgeable experts that the warhead nearly detonated in 2005 because an unsafe amount of pressure was applied while it was being disassembled, The Austin American-Statesman reports.

Does this news concern anybody now that, apparently, the current US nuclear arsenal is due to be dismantled and replaced?

No offense, but that's because some people on here know that the information in that article is very likely BS.
