Apparently the Pentagon mistakenly sent nuclear weapon parts to Taiwan in 2006 and despite repeated wtf? queries from them, didn't even acknowledge the gaffe until a year later and only now are they investigating what happened.. Instead the US has praised taiwan on how "responsible" they acted by letting them know they got nukes instead of batteries. Reminds me of the time in 3rd grade when i found a walkman on the playground and took it into the lost & found. i got a pat on the back. Thanks Taiwan!
