These are the people that Foolestroupe believes are a bunch of "neo-cons (Bushites supporters)" who put out a report some years ago which stated that Russia had more nuclear weapons than the USA.

The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) is a New York City-based, non-profit, non-partisan environmental advocacy group, with offices in Washington, D.C., San Francisco, and Los Angeles. Founded in 1970, NRDC today has 1.2 million members and online activists nationwide, and a staff of more than 250 scientists, attorneys, and other specialists. Along with Sierra Club, Environmental Defense, World Resources Institute, and Earthjustice, NRDC is widely considered to be one of the leading environmental groups.

The NRDC has published a number of studies on nuclear weapon stockpiles around the world, both as monographs and as individual studies in the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists.

According to the NRDC:

Country - Warheads active/total* - Year of first test

United States - 5,735/9,960 - 1945 ("Trinity")

Russia (formerly the Soviet Union) - 7,200/16,000 - 1949 ("RDS-1")

Still reckon that the above figures result from CIA "Black Ops" Foolestroupe?
