No, that is not a valid counterargument to the statistical argument of Nuclear's safety. One catastrophic accident is not necessarily worse than many small accidents. In fact that's the whole point behind the argument.

I agree that my comment was ill formed. My point was that when comparing the kind of worst case scenario of nuclear against other energies you get a very different result.

In part I am also worried about nuclear power plants in case of war.

I understand that there are many advantages on many sides, but in my opinion it is not worth it considering what could happen if thing go very wrong.
