It's obviously hard to know the credibility, but putting everything together, including that they did raise the alert, even though now they have a higher standard for raising it, my guess is that at least some of this info is true or at least likely.

Over the years there has been a lot of talk about the suitcase nukes -- they could well be hidden in the US.

There have also been credible threat alerts about cargo planes.

So everything considered, horrible it is to contemplate, but I think the possibility is there.

Of course I am also sure that our intel services and law enforcement are pulling out all the stops to prevent it, I hope they succeed.

I know this has been mentioned on other threads but I just don't recall what was said. Does the material in a suitcase nuke have a "shelf life"?

The other day we were watching a show on TBN and they were talking about how this Christian Org. uses the Russian Cargo planes to deliver supplies to other Nations.

There are potential targets for hijacking everywhere.

This is where I find my own personal reassurance for all the fears...these alerts are good things in that it does avert and deter the attacks IMO.
