"WASHINGTON — The United States can expect a terrorist attack using nuclear or more likely biological weapons before 2013, reports a bipartisan commission in a study being briefed Tuesday to Vice President-elect Joe Biden.
It suggests the Obama administration bolster efforts to counter and prepare for germ warfare by terrorists.
"Our margin of safety is shrinking, not growing," states the report, obtained by The Associated Press. It is scheduled to be publicly released Wednesday.
Click here for the report.
The commission is also encouraging the new White House to appoint one official on the National Security Council to exclusively coordinate U.S. intelligence and foreign policy on combatting the spread of nuclear and biological weapons.
The report of the Commission on the Prevention of WMD Proliferation and Terrorism, led by former Sens. Bob Graham of Florida and Jim Talent of Missouri, acknowledges that terrorist groups still lack the needed scientific and technical ability to make weapons out of pathogens or nuclear bombs..."
We can probably expect a nuclear attack to be the works of Iranian funded/supported terrorists, or the Iranian government themselves. However, it is easy to understand how a biological terror attack is more likely.
We must be very much aware of our surroundings and anyone who is suspicious looking. I believe that the next 4+ years will be very horrendous, and not just because Obama is our President to be.

Yes, it started shrinking more rapidly on November 5.
Ms Gorelick, tear down this wall!
2013?? Why would they have to wait that long?? Nothing will be done to close our borders and no aggressive moves will be made in any extended WOT.....especially now.
They won’t wait until 2013.
Oh, Lord. What will Joe be saying on the evening newscast?
"Our response will seem inadequate. It will seem weak. People will say, how could we have elected these buffoons? But do not be deceived my friends -- we know what we're doing."
Joe, the Biden warned us!
What a people of ingrates we are - so much bashing towards a President that works relentlessly to keep on top of all the threats against this great nation and no one gives him credit! Not until he has taken his place in history will it truly be understood just how strong he was on this war against terror. A war we are now in danger of being swept into without responsible and wise leadership at the helm! God help us!
We need to pick several hot spots where terrorist are getting support and areas where they live and nuke the whole freaking area.
Kill them by the hundereds of thousands, millions if need be to prevent this from happening.
Start with Iran, tommorrow.
Well, they’re going to miss the boat then. I’ve read that the world is due to end in 2012. ;~)

The MSM and DNC care barely wait.
Hey wait a minute!! The world should love us now- look who/what we elected!
Actually, we can expect a nuclear attack (on NYC) anywhere between 2010-2013.
If you think we’re foolish enough to believe that Osama’s group will sit around on their hands for the next three years, you’re crazy.
Die Spiegel interviews THREE YEARS AGO were saying this, but nobody listens. Read step four. It ain’t gonna be just cyber-terrorism from those sickos.
kumbaya! kumbaya! never fear, for the One has been elected, and terrorism has come to pass! terrorism is is a thing of the past! The One, who is currently residing in the Office of the President-Elect, is ushering a new era of peace and harmony even as speak!
Wait, why would anyone want to attack us? The Messiah is President!
Barack Osama, the Kenyan god-king, and his court jester Joe bin Biden will save us. Don’t worry.
>US will likely be attacked by 2013 by terrorists with nukes or biological weapons<
Too late then. The Mayan calendar predicts the end of the world some time around September 10, 2012.
“The MSM and DNC care barely wait.”
That’s what really irks me. Where do these idiots think
they can hide? They must think they are immune to all this.
They are absolutely out of touch with reality.
Anyone not willing to give up their weapons are by definition "terrorists."
If I was feeling the least bit unsafe at the election of Obama (which I was!!) I am feeling really unsafe now. This is pretty much terrifying. But hey the people that voted him in wanted CHANGE. Looks like they are getting it.
The report of the Commission on the Prevention of WMD Proliferation and Terrorism, led by former Sens. Bob Graham of Florida and Jim Talent of Missouri, acknowledges that terrorist groups still lack the needed scientific and technical ability to make weapons out of pathogens or nuclear bombs...”
That is a complete lie. Iran is progressing along nicely with their weapons program, and they are the biggest terrorist group in the world.
WWOD?
Thank you for your praise for President Bush.
On November 4, 2008 American voters went to the polls and by their votes,52% said that they did not give a damn.
I’m pushing all my co-workers who voted Obama to the front.
I’ll hang back. Let them feel the love.
NYC will be hit in 2010, during Hillary’s term.
Rome will be hit in 2013.
The terrorists have no souls - they want complete destruction of the west. Those are the top 2 targets you hit when Iran gives you the means to hit them.
Given the democrats assault on anti-terror efforts to date, and the building (and defending) walls prohibiting sharing of intel between agencies, and given they oppose the PARIOT Act and any given common-sense anti-terror activity or step (like profiling), and their firm belief that talking and understanding will defuse the mad mullahs, yes, I can very well expect The One and his team to do nothing.
The democrats contempt of America and defending the great nation is revealed in their playing politics with the Iraq and Afghanistan war, as well as other WOT efforts.
For many years I have lived and worked inside the Beltway, and while partisan fighting does happen on both sides, I have regularly seen the democrats fight for party over country, as opposed to the republicans that fight for “country first.”
I usually am not this cynical, but the tone of the incoming democratic hacks and bureaucrats depresses me greatly.
“We need to pick several hot spots where terrorist are getting support and areas where they live and nuke the whole freaking area.”
If we do what you suggest we should start nuking certain neighborhoods right here in the US.
“On November 4, 2008 American voters went to the polls and by their votes,52% said that they did not give a damn.”
Stupid, complacent idiots.
I would think they really mean 2/13.
The attack in Momnai was an excercise, they know now what they did wrong and have no doubt found out ways to improve the mission, where is a good question but my guess is the next attack could be either France or England.
2013 represents the time 20:13 or 8:13 pm.
January 20, 2009
There is no doubt in my mind an attempt by Adnan El Shukrijumah and his goons are going to try something in 2010 on NYC we must be ready.
We’ve already been attacked by a “biological” weapon. His name is Barack Hussein Obambi.
We are doomed.
Will the Islamfascists attack another Muslim? You know who.
It will all still be Bush’s fault.
Any shorter timeframe would have implied the terrorists are emboldened by an Obama administration.
Which would be absolutely true.
“The terrorists have no souls - they want complete destruction of the west.”
I’ve been trying to tell friends and relatives this for years. They simply don’t believe me or want to hear it.

The past 6 years of diligent efforts on the part of our friends on the international left & our mainstream media, unfortunately, have made it virtually impossible to 'prevent' such a catastrophe, and have all but guaranteed thousands of Americans will need to die before effective 'preventative action' can be taken.
I hope everyone remembers who's to blame.
I thought what’s-his-name the vpinwaiting said 6 months to test the O. Someone don’t kno nuttin about matt.
You are sooooo right!! The dems put political correctness over the welfare of our Country. God help us.
The RAT party’s dedication to tolerance, fairness, affirmative action, and multiculturalism along with its abhorence of interrogation, intelligence gathering and profiling will ensure that this happens.
Well an interesting time happened on the way to January 20, 2009.
A liberal black friend who voted for O and was ultra-anti war, and all Bush’s war said the following to me two days ago..
“We need to go over and just keep bombing the terrorists non-stop, we need to (here’s the part you’ll really love) take the fight to them and pound them into submission.”
God what a difference an election makes.
ssdd
Let this constitute Obama’s Presidential Daily Briefing (PDB) / memo advising him of an impending terrorist attack. See if he is more attentive to it than he accused Bush of being to his in 2001.
WWOD???
I agree Bush did a wonderful job keeping us safe.
It’s just too bad the idiot socialist George Bush sold us to his socialist masters in his one world cabal.
George W. Bush Republican Socialist aka compassionate conservative.
“By 2013” means as early as next year . . . or next week.
I have no doubt that terrorists would use such weapons if they had them. Therefore it’s imperitive we stop them from obtaining such weapons, and hopefully from drawing breath at all.
No worries we will all be dead by then.. The Mayan Calender says so!
