hmm, so the article won't visualize with internet archive because evidently the IA bot has been blocked.

So not sure if post should just be deleted. Anyway, exciting story of a White South African who helped sabotage South Africa's Nuclear Weapons program:

"Dr. Christie provided the research needed to blow up the Koeberg Nuclear Power Station; the Arnot coal-fired power station; the Sasol oil-from-coal facilities that produced the heavy water critical to producing nuclear weapons; and other critical sites.

The explosions set back South Africa’s nascent nuclear weapons program by years and cost the government more than $1 billion, Dr. Christie later estimated."
