Thank you Jim.
This isn't the forum to discuss the variances of warhead types. Suffice it to say that these are not the multistage fusion or fusion enhanced weapons that he's describing. These are believed to have a variable yield with a maximum of 1kt, similar to our SADM. Tritium is irrelevent. These are pure fission type weaps.
This is SIMPLE STUFF. Remember that they were reported MISSING by General Lebed. They may have been sold on the black market or by disenfranchised GRU or KGB.
HI LAURA.
You sound fine!
Remember in your translation that their cells were instructed to use different names to overextend our intelligence apparatus.
Do I understand this message?
Nope.
Are you lost in the bar, do you need help?
LOL

"Hassoun in Excellent Condition"
Saturday, July 10, 2004
I know you didn't address that to me, but smiling anyway!
I think quite the reverse. Buildings change hands, they get condemned or leveled for other reasons. Weather or other natural disaster will have a greater effect on a building than an object buried properly in soil. The key word is properly. I have training in creating a cache of firearms for use at a future time. Done correctly any modern firearm and it's ammo will be ready for use once unearthed and wiped clean of preservative grease and they will stay pristine buried in the soil for over 100 years. Done correctly. Screw the pooch even by a teeeeny amount and you'll uncover a heap of solid rust.
But today, I'm going to create caches by sealing my weapons and ammo inside heavy plastic or pvc pipes with waterproof, airtight seals at one or both ends. I'm going to emplace them in an area I will recognize many years away. I'll take two or more compass azimuths to confirm positioning. I may emplace it next to a railroad track or salt the area with many shards of dense metal to throw any sort of detectors off the scent. But, was this material for my survival cache readily (such that acquiring it wouldn't raise any suspicions) available in say the 1950's or 1960's when presumably the devices were emplaced? More importantly, was the supply sufficient to cache an object the size of a suitcase nuke from that era? I dunno. Remember the movie: "The Graduate?" What was the secret word offered by the wise older man to the young stud as the secret to future riches? One word: "Plastic."
It will be interesting.
Thank you :)
It sounds like you two disagree re tritium??? etc.?
You're welcome.
Watch, no charges filed due to "sensitive information" issues.
80's, IIRC. I'll hafta look around, but I think that was the time frame for predeployment. The smuggled ones would be different, of course.
DAWN.com: Kabul, Afghanistan - "AFGHAN INTELLIGENCE OFFICIALS TALK TO MULLAH OMAR" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A man believed to be Mullah Omar's aide, Mullah Sakhi Dad Mujahid, was captured on Tuesday while carrying a satellite telephone containing the phone numbers of top members of the ousted government, Kandahar intelligence chief Abdullah Laghmanai said. "We contacted Mullah Omar by Mullah Mujahid's phone," he said, adding that at first Mullah Mujahid was forced to talk to his boss on the phone. "But when he (Omar) realized the situation ... he cut off the phone."") (July 9, 2004) (Read More...)
Makes sense. What do I know!
