"Soviet Russia was less than 5 years away from their own A-bomb..."

The world's terrorists are further away than that still to this day, and my simple point was only that the issues involved were non-trivial, anyway.

I stand by my claim that, with 110 pounds of HEU, the successful construction and detonation of an atomic bomb is trivial.

The only non-trivial part these days is getting one's mitts on the requisite quantity of Uranium-235. Everything else can be accomplished in one's garage.
