People have been far more concerned about the efficacy of the ALPS system at extracting other contaminants than they are about tritium contamination. The ALPS system is unproven and the wastewater they're releasing would be pretty toxic as far as other radioactive isotopes is concerned if the ALPS system isn't doing it's job perfectly.

Not clarifying the curbs is the entire point. Biden wants to reduce US investment into China in aggregate and doesn't care where that happens. The "totally tight and totally limited" curbs are just a cover that Biden is using to justify his policy.

It's fair to be critical of Hersh's use of anonymous sources, but it was those same anonymous sources that enabled him to cover the so-called "weapons of mass destruction" and "nuclear materials" used to justify the invasion of Iraq. It's not like this article is coming from a journalistic non-entity. Hersh has a pretty stellar record as far as journalism uncovering government corruption.

He's been considered crazy after pretty much every article he has written.

Evidence of heinous acts by government typically doesn't surface until years later.

Didn't German and Dutch companies fund Nordstream 2? "Russia's pipeline" indeed.
