"but please, do your job as a good Freeper and research the story before giving us all your 'incredibly valuable' opinion."

The issue of backpack nukes and suitcase nukes being smuggled into America has been discussed numerous times in great depth here at FR. This subject has already been researched and reported in great detail. The consensus conclusion has been that it takes a very high level of technological support to maintain this type of weapon, which means terrorists would need state support to actually detonate these nukes. No nation wants to take that chance and risk being hit with a devastating retaliatory nuclear strike, although we have to closely watch rouge agencies within the world's nuclear powers.

What about dirty nukes?

What about the wider subject of a coordinated Ramadan attack, either with bio or conventional weapons? I agree, the Russian suitcase bomb theory is unlikely to play out, but these other possibilities aren't so easily dismissed.

Further, there was some good discussion concerning Ramadan and eclipses, as they relate to the Muslim mind.
