Pure, unabashed speculation....that falls apart when logic is applied:
We managed to place nukes everywhere else, why not on the moon?
No, there are no "nukes" on the Moon.
You are referring to ICBMs, or other sort of rockets to act as a delivery method for nuclear warheads.
Such weapons need to be manned, and maintained....by Humans on site. There also have been NO, and I repeat, NO major payloads lofted to Lunar vicinity.
Furthermore, the "point" of nuclear weapons in terms of an all-out "war" is the time factor, and the proximity. AND, that element of "surprise".....There simply is no technology to get a weapon from the Moon to Earth and still do it quickly, and maintain a "surprise" aspect.
And as pointed out.....there are people who have been observing the Moon for decades. And, nothing out of the ordinary is seen....at all.
The scientist mentioned in the OP divulged "secrets" that are space-related, and are not to be inferred as suggested, by the thread title.....the title is a bit over-the-top deceptive.
The "presumed trade/FBI sting" was not on satellite hardware or software but on DATA collected... on the Moon and a "test" on the Nozette reliability to preserve the secret.
And Nozette know many secrets on that matter...

The government suspected Nozette might be interested in spying after a investigators searched his Chevy Chase, at his home in Maryland in February 2007 as part of the tax and fraud probe. Read more: www.dailymail.co.uk...
According to the Nature Blog, Stewart Nozette has worked for with Israeli contacts previously. The FBI affidavit says that between 1998 and 2008, an Israeli Aerospace Company "wholly owned by the Government of the State of Israel" paid Nozette some $225,000.

Israel? That seems odd....of all countries.
I thought we shared everything with them already?

I observe the moon through a high quality telescope all of the time, there are no bases or military on it as far as i have seen. Good luck building something on the far side in the dark though.
Ever heard of camouflage?

However I think it is mainly defence secrets that where being sold, not really suspicious information.
