Just heard, apparently police are out in force after hearing of the threat
I think it was 01/16, but I may be off a few...
Wouldn't that have been January 16th?
Same announced on CNN, though they don't know if the source is credible. They said there were a couple 'chemists" that crossed with others.
I did some fast math and got 1/22, but I'm probably wrong.
Thanks..........couldn't find my calculator.
Still pretty close.
Who could miss him!
It's now 5:22 PM EST in Boston and I'm not radioactive as a slight snowfall haunts the night.
British authorities have said they believe suspected Islamic terrorists were harvesting radioactive materials from household smoke detectors.One source of rad mat. Many others too. Including some bright kid and his collection of Coleman Mantles.Time magazine reported that following the arrest of a suspected terror cell in August, British police discovered large amounts of smoke detectors that contain small amounts of americium-241. They believe the group planned to use the radioactive element to construct a primitive dirty bomb.

I certainly hope the tv networks will decide to cover this press conf.
Has anyone seen what date this bunch came across?
I've seen several posts about the guy who ratted on them from the Mexico side, left pictures of them for the FBI etc. but not when they came across saying nuclear material would follow them.
They can't hit Boston. Boston is a blue state.
That is the most revolting picture ever. He really needs some help. Maybe Arnold could be his person trainer and whip him into shape.
I was thinking the same thing. Apparently Al Qaeda cant tell its blue states from red states.

The FBI might have heard "chatter" and decided to make this public to see what affect it would have.
