The Nuclear Suitcases Of Sheikh Osama Bin Laden - A Christmas Message From Daleel Almojahid
PipeLineNews - Editor's note: As we consider the heightened state of terror awareness, it may be instructive to read a sample of the type of "chatter" that has alarmed the intelligence gathering mechanism of the United States.
It comes from an Internet source called Daleel Almohahid which means roughly, Guide or Directive of the Jihad, in Arabic. Internet message boards such as this one have been increasingly cluttered with such ominous warnings.
This is a remarkable document. Many of the facts claimed by it are either not verifiable or provably incorrect - [nuclear yield figures, weight estimates, portability, etc] - still, if it contains nothing more than pompous boasting, it gives some insight into the Wahabi mindset and what we are up against in this Third World War which is being fought against Islamic fundamentalism.
We did nothing to change the content of this message, except a small amount of editing/formatting and a few clarifications which appear in brackets within the body of the message text.
For a short discussion about the nature of suitcase nuclear devices take the following link:
In the seventies Russian scientists were ordered to produce and
manufacture small nuclear bombs the size of suit cases by the (KGB) to
destroy the enemy's major targets in the war, like electricity
facilities and bridges, and so on.
These small tactical nuclear suit cases have a destruction power of
about 1000 tones worth of TNT, and that's about 10% of a conventional
nuclear bomb like the ones that America dropped on the cities of
Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
So if Al-Qaida was able to smuggle these suit cases into the United
States this means that its possible to destroy the Congress entirely
and everything as close as half a mile from it, and would eventually
spread out nuclear dust in all the region of Washington!.
These nuclear suit cases have the capability to kill up to 100,000
people from the nuclear dust it spreads, and the affected area will be
a ghost town for a long time to come.
These nuclear suit cases weigh from 30kg to 45 kg [65-100lbs] per suit case, it's
possible for any one to carry it on his back, and it just needs one
person to blow it up.
There is also another kind of nuclear suit cases that are made up of
only nuclear radiation waste, these kind of bombs just need normal
explosives to spread out the radiation that will eventually destroy
life in a wide area.
What does the American administration know and hiding from the
American public?
American Intelligence have noted that Osama bin laden has tried to buy
enriched uranium in 1993, but other intelligence discovered that Osama
Bin Laden was actually able of buying tactical nuclear weapons from
the black market and that's directly after the collapse of the former
Soviet Union. These weapons were smuggled out from the factory's and production facilities that have been closed with out a watching eye.
Other intelligence have told the US that bin laden was able of buying
more than 20 nuclear suit cases for an amount of 30 million US
dollars, and the Russian mafia was responsible for the smuggling of
these suit cases out of the former Soviet Union and they succeeded.
Other intelligence came out from a former Al-Qaida operative the
Sudanese Jamal Ahmad Al-Fadl that was held for the blowing up of the
two American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, he noted to the French news paper (express) that he looked for nuclear material on the behalf
of Al-Qaida in Sudan and was capable of finding what he was looking
for, after that he called a high Al-Qaida operative and sent him the
details of what he has found. Al-Fadl said that Al-Qaida was very
happy from what he has found and sent him 10,000$ and told him we will
continue the buying. And so they did!
In 1997, the American administration woke up from its sleep after a
press release from General Alexander Leped [Alexander Lebed] the adviser of the former
Russian President Bores Yalitsen [former Russian President Boris Yeltsin] speaking in an interview with an
American news channel saying (the Former Soviet Union has lost 100
small nuclear suite cases since the fall of the former Soviet Union
and that they don't know where they have disappeared to!!)
After that interview directly the Russians issued a statement saying
that General Alexander Leped was lying and accused him of stupidity
and that he was trying to have some political publicity.
But the strange thing in this story is that General Alexander Leped
was killed later on in a chopper crash in Siberia in 2002! And the
official statement from the Russian authority's to the cause of the
crash was that the shopper bulged into electricity cables due to bad
weather!!!
After the blessed attacks of 9-11 Osama bin laden was Quoted saying to
a Pakistani news paper (Al-fager)
"Al-Qaida has nuclear and chemical weapons and these weapons are there for defense purposes" and added we would use them against the United States if they use against us any sort of weapons like these."
American intelligence also knows that Al-Qaida has Nuclear
Capabilities, after Bin Sheba was detained and through interrogations
he confessed that Al-Qaida does in fact have a small arsenal of
nuclear weapons ready to be deployed and used.
When Taliban started its fast evacuation from parts of Afghanistan it
left behind it traces of paper that indicated to the American
intelligence that Al-Qaida has knowledge about nuclear and chemical
weapons. One of these papers that were found had the titled (the big
bombs) and it describes exactly how to produce a nuclear explosions in
an easy method. It was then certain to the American intelligence team
that Al-Qaida has probably been able of producing what's called ( a
nuclear radiation explosion bomb) which if deployed would make a huge
area a ghost town.
Why are we publishing all this to you?
We want the American people to start opining their eyes before it's
too late to how their government is lying to them every day, although
they know who Al-Qaida is! They know its Capabilities. America thought
that it can be one day the strongest power in the world and that no
one would be able to stand against her, but God has his ways also and
knows how to break a huge nation with a few small and weak followers.
Wake up Americans, your country was trying to be the police man of the
world, taking everything for granted as if every one on this planet is
its slave! But no, that will never be or happen, not now and not in a
million years to come.
America was made up with a huge army that would face and destroy huge
army's like her, but it could never win a war with ghosts that stand
everywhere and nowhere standing up for this so called great nation!!
Always keep in you're your mind that what goes around comes around.
Always remember how your great nation dropped nuclear weapons without any kind of sympathy what so ever on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki killing millions of children, men, and women, what a great
nation!! So don't be surprised if God decides to send you the same
revenge!! God is fair don't you think!
Praise to God almighty as we move closer to a new Islamic era whether you like it or not.

We need to let these people flush the Saudi govenment like they want to. These idiots would then have a home they could congregate in & set up an AQ govt. We would then have a nation state as a target and could vaporize Riyadh, Mecca, and Medina as part of war against a nation.
This is the premise of the overall article. While it is something that every thinking person knows, it again reinforces the notion that these extremists will use or utilize any weapon they get their filthy mitts on. Meanwhile, we have the handwringing and lamenting of the Deans, Hillarys, Kerrys and their leftist brethren. These leftists would like nothing better than hunkering down in their root cellars with their French wine and brie while discussing such pseudo-intellectual topics as the spirituality of orgasm. All while hoping that the world understands that "war never settled anything". Pathetic lot, the left.

Very hyperbolic.
The suitcase nukes are 5% the power of the WWII bombs, but are supposedly more destreuctive, killing more people in the US than the originals did in the high density of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and make them unlivable for longer.
Yes, they could wipe out Congress, or the Pentagon, or the Whitehouse, but they could not destroy a city, and would only convince all the American people that the only good Muslim was a dead muslim, and we do have the nuclear capability to make that come true.

I believe the triggering mechanism needs periodic Mx. Also, there is no way to test these devices. If someone made 10 & tested one, they could assume the bombs worked...these morons can't do that. BAsed on the info, there is no way these islamonuts know what they have...bombs moved from the Russian mafia? Could be full of radioactive cow sh*t.

My logic can be the equal of yours!
You can't detonate an old Soviet nuke from the 1970's. The whole concept of long-missing "suitcase" nukes being hidden away to be used at some point in the future by rogue terrorists is fundamentally (religious pun intended) flawed. Let me put this into layman's terms.
For a nuke to detonate rather than "fizzle," you've got to have a precisely shaped fissionable outer shell or globe and a precisely shaped core. Most nuke designs, especially the *smaller* (read: suitcase sized) ones also require a nuclear "trigger" (which is made up of a substance that emits large quantities of neutrons at high speeds...a fact of science that simultaneously causes the trigger to decay rapidly with a very short "half life").
So for the radioactive components of a nuke, you've got to have precise shapes, and you've got to detonate the device *before* the radioactive elements decay past a certain point. The "trigger" decays the fastest, and it is reasonable to say that most atomic triggers are going to be worthless after 120 days. The core typically decays much slower, and after some number of years will have introduced numerous atomic impurities into itself, and its remaining fissionable material will gradually cease to be over the "critical mass" threshold. The globe/shell typically decays the slowest of all, but even it will have impurities being introduced into itself over the years, impurities that *will* increase the likelihood of getting a "fizzle" rather than a boom.
But wait, there's more!
These radioactive elements wreck havoc upon the electronic components used to detonate the nuclear bomb. Every day that the wiring and circuit components are exposed to this radiation reduces the likelihood of the electronics working as designed. Ditto for the effects of long-term radiation on the convention explosive that are used to initiate the nuclear chain reactions.
So for these basic reasons and many others, nuclear warheads/bombs require an enormous amount of constant maintenance.
Nukes are *NOT* like old WW2 bombs that shrimpers pull up from the sea in their nets every now and again. You don't just ignore a nuke for decades and then think that it will go BOOM!
After 4 months without maintenance, you've got about a 50-50 chance of a fizzle instead of a BOOM.
Each day after that dramatically reduces the chances of the device working as designed. Even rust or normal metallic corrosion will greatly reduce the chances of such an atomic device being anything more than a dirty bomb.
And just for the record: Uranium and Plutonium *are* metals. They are also very brittle, another factor to consider.
So anyone running around claiming that they've got old "suitcase" nukes from the Soviet Union (deceased since 1989) is either patently uneducated on atomic weapons *OR* simply bluffing.
Even if they knew the codes to activate the device, if it is more than 4 months out of maintenance it will probably just fizzle and scare the crap out of every news anchor in NYC.
And this isn't the sort of maintenance that can be performed inside someone's garage, either.
Those who know, don't talk. Those who talk, don't know.
When an AyRab is weak, he blusters. When he is strong, he's silent.
