Foreign Policy appears to have stealth-edited the headline from "White Supremacists Want a Nuclear Weapon" to "White Supremacists Want a Dirty Bomb."

This is the URL, which you can see contained the original headline which is in their tweet and many others: https://foreignpolicy.com/2019/08/16/white-supremacists-want-a-nuclear-weapon/

According to the the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the difference between to two is that "a nuclear bomb creates an explosion that is millions of times more powerful than that of a dirty bomb."

The article contains no correction.



And before you @ me... Yes, I used to work C-WMD for a living.

I know more than you on this.
