I recently found it important to try and find out where these NRC people came from. At first I thought it would
be useful to understand where they come from with respect to ideology. I now understand that it is even more important
to understand where they come from geographically. Where they come from and where they spend their time isn't necessarily
in the USA.
From reading about my case, Ron Bath VS the NRC, you have learned that members of the NRC allegedly make
bad decisions, lie to officials and stand poorly on human rights decisions.
My investigation started out in a far different direction than where it ended. In my opinion and belief, what I
found was a model for possible divided loyalties and early exposure to negative human rights doctrine.
Reading only one article about individual NRC officials shows a simple viewpoint. What is disturbing is when you
cross reverence the information found in more than one article and see the big picture of their views, affiliations and activities.
This is greatly compounded when you review and compare one NRC official's article against the other. A whole new dynamic may
be seen as it comes into view.
Nils J. Diaz is the Chairman of NRC Commissioners.
President Clinton named Dr. Nils Diaz and Edward McGaffigan, Jr. to the Commission.
Nils J. Diaz was reappointed to the post by President George W. Bush on April 01, 2003. Chairman Diaz has
had a long career in the nuclear industry. He also has been a consultant to Spain's nuclear regulatory commission.
Chairman Diaz's subordinate, Edward McGaffigan, was a senior policy advisor to Sen. Jeff Bingaman (D-N.M.) and a
former science attach'e to the U.S. Embassy in Moscow
Let's examine Chairman Diaz's background.
o Raised and educated in Cuba
o Served as consultant to Spain's nuclear regulatory commission
o Champion for plan to buy weapon grade nuclear materials from Russia
o Works with Edward McGaffigan, Jr. former science attach'e to the U.S.
Embassy in Moscow
o Both Diaz and McGaffigan have publically made statements implying that
President Bush, their Boss, has lied to the American people
Examples of Radical NRC Views
Nils Diaz of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission discussed the US program of buying enriched uranium from Russia,
downgrading it, and using it for energy generation. "Despite the tradition of dividing civilian and military nuclear materials",
he argued," the present efforts show that this is an artificial distinction that has outlived its usefulness".
An artificial distinction that has outlived its usefulness? I wonder what our military leaders would think of this
new found wisdom? Intelligence analysts might not agree. Just because there are present efforts by Chairman Diaz to
invoke a contrary idea, it doesn't automatically rule a distinction to be artificial and condemn its usefulness. US Intelligence
analysts might be well served to take a long, hard look at prevailing motives and affiliations related to this international
initiative and related issues.
Diaz, who has a doctorate in nuclear science and has been in the business for 40 years, also said
he doesn’t believe Osama bin Laden or his al-Qaida terrorist organization has access to nuclear weapons.
“I believe they have no capabilities whatsoever,” Diaz said. “Some of those
things are purposely planted to create fear,” he said.
Will this viewpoint expressed by the NRC's boss have any impact on the vigilance at US nuclear
power plants and national security? My point; If you don't believe a wolfs at your door, you probably won't be prepared
to greet him in an appropriate defensive manner.
