   Christian Zionism with it's violent apocalyptic delusions now up for Secretary of Defence and in charge of the Pentagon? Yep...
   
   I swear, someone needs to seriously turn the temple mount into a radioactive smoking glass crater for the next 10,000 years. Right away. When infants won't share their toys, they get taken away.
   
   Incidentally the Pagan emperor Flavius Claudius Julianus (grandson of Constantine I) tried to have the 3rd temple on the mount constructed in the early 4th century CE, but the Christians of that era quickly put a stop to it and had it demolished again.

     That isn't possible with nuclear bombs, as spicy radioactive elements decay mostly within minutes, hours or days and the less spicy ones decay mostly within decades.
     
     Nagasaki and Hiroshima are completely fine to visit and live in now for example.

     The only real nuclear waste is low to medium-level medical equipment etc that you dump in a warehouse for a few months and then dump in normal landfill.
     
     There really isn't that much volume of slightly used fuel available, although such highly concentrated Uranium will indeed continue to be radioactive for billions of years.
     
     You could leave it concentrated and dump it in one area, but that would just contaminate that one area only and be rapidly cleaned up, or you could grind the fuel into a really fine power and spread it out, which would make it a massive pain to clean up, possibly making some areas no-go zones for the next 1000 years (but you would probably die from heavy metal poisoning from the Uranium metal powder before you manage to grind down all of it).

     True. Mind you it'll never happen anyway. It's all just wishful thinking. That said, if someone were to take it upon themselves, I'm sure they could figure out a way to make it happen, such as dumping a bunch of nuclear waste on site or that kinda thing.
