Dr. Bill Wattenberg is filling in for Gene Burns tonight on KGO.com, he will be on for 2 more hours.
He is hot over the Los Alamos story, says it was written by an enviromentalist and is not true.
It is a tree hugger scare story.
He just read it on air and will discuss it in detail in the next hour.
Thanks to both you and Davey for the good links.....later.
Snip: Traffic returned to normal Friday after a security breach at Spokane International Airport. Airport authorities say a man carrying several prohibited items in his luggage got past security in the C concourse around 11 a.m. His items got mixed up with other passengers' baggage, so Transportation Safety Administration officers had to rescreen everyone in the concourse.
The entire rescreening process took about 25 minutes. One outgoing Horizon flight was delayed. An airport spokesman says the man was carrying a Leatherman tool with blades and files.

Fencing firm targeted in immigration probe - 17 arrested
Snip: Golden State Fence Co. had rehired some of the 17 employees who were arrested despite previous warnings by federal authorities that they were ineligible to work, officials with the Department of Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement bureau said in a press release.
Authorities searched company offices in Riverside, where the company is based, and in Oceanside, about 35 miles north of San Diego. All 17 employees arrested were Mexican nationals. Calls to Golden State offices after business hours Wednesday were not immediately returned.
Immigration authorities have audited Golden State's employment records twice before, said Homeland Security spokeswoman Lauren Mack. Last year's audit found 48 employees were in the country illegally. An audit in 1999 found 15 illegal immigrants.
An immigration sweep last year resulted in the arrests of some Golden State employees who were working at Naval Air Station North Island in Coronado. Mack said she didn't know if the company continues to work on military bases.
Oriana Fallaci rails against Muslim immigration
Snip: Frail, slight, and dying of cancer, Oriana Fallaci told a Manhattan audience on Monday that she hates Islam and fears that Muslim immigration poses a greater danger to the West than Islamic terrorism.
IMO Binnyboy, Zarqawi and Dawood's thugs are all in Pakistain...and they have lots of money, guns and whatever they need.

from last night googles....

Here is a lttle more about him...I had never heard of Dawood before.
Why Dawood is on US watchlist
December 01, 2005 03:36
'The first blast struck at 1:25 pm, shattering the walls of the Bombay Stock Exchange. Next to be hit was the main office of Air India, followed by the Central Bazaar and major hotels. At the international airport, hand grenades were thrown at jets parked on the tarmac. For nearly two hours the carnage went on, as unknown assailants wreaked havoc upon one of the world's largest cities. In all, 10 bombs packed with plastic explosives rocked Mumbai, killing 257 and injuring over 700'
The Mumbai Blasts
This is what a USNews.com report claimed happened in Mumbai on March 12, 1993 and that it was "a chilling precursor to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, a careful choreography of death and destruction, aimed at the heart of a nation's financial center and intended to maximize civilian casualties."
Engineered by Muslim extremists, the attacks were meant to exact revenge for deadly riots by Hindu fundamentalists that had claimed over a 1,000 lives, most of them Muslim, the report claimed.
Blasts rock Delhi
"Indian police later recovered an arsenal big enough to spark a civil war: Nearly 4 tons of explosives, 1,100 detonators, nearly 500 grenades, 63 assault rifles, and thousands of rounds of ammunition. Within days of the attacks, the police had gotten their first break by tracing an abandoned van filled with a load of weapons. The trail soon led to a surprising suspect: not a terrorist but a gangster. And not just any gangster but an extraordinary crime boss, a man known as South Asia's Al Capone," it claimed.
Virtually unknown in the west, Dawood Ibrahim is a household name across the region, his exploits known by millions. He is, by all accounts, a world-class mobster, a soft-spoken, murderous businessman from Mumbai who now lives in exile, sheltered by India's arch enemy, Pakistan. Strong-arm protection, drug trafficking, extortion, murder-for-hire -- all are stock-in-trade rackets, police say, of Dawood Ibrahim's syndicate, the innocuously named D Company, it claimed.
Dawood, as he is known in the Indian press, is very much on Washington's radar screen today. Two years ago, the Treasury Department quietly designated Dawood a "global terrorist" for lending his smuggling routes to Al Qaeda, supporting jihadists in Pakistan, and helping engineer the 1993 attack on Mumbai. He is far and away India's most wanted man, his name invoked time and again by Indian officials in their discussions of terrorism with US diplomats and intelligence officers. As a result of those discussions, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Drug Enforcement Administration each have active investigations into Dawood's far-flung criminal network, USNews.com claimed.
America's War on Terror
Understanding Dawood's operations is important, experts say, because they show how growing numbers of terrorist groups have come to rely on the tactics -- and profits -- of organized criminal activity to finance their operations across the globe. An inquiry by USNews.com, based on interviews with counterterrorism and law enforcement officials from six countries, has found that terrorists worldwide are transforming their operating cells into criminal gangs. "Transnational crime is converging with the terrorist world," says Robert Charles, the State Department's former point man on narcotics. Antonio Maria Costa, the head of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, agrees: "The world is seeing the birth of a new hybrid of organized-crime-terrorist organizations. We are breaking new ground," it claimed.
Some scholars argue that terrorists and traditional crime groups both now exist on a single, violent plane, populated at one end by politically minded jihadists and at the other by profit-driven mobsters, with most groups falling somewhere in between, the report continued.

Good read about a thug that rolled on other Dawood thugs...
After that, while I was shooting for Sanam, Hanif, Sameer and I used to chat about films and other things in general. During one such conversation, Hanif and Sameer boasted about a new friend by name Tiger Memon and were telling me that he was very dynamic and daring.
They said that even the customs and the police were afraid of him and that he was a very good friend. They also occasionally used to talk about their friendship with Dawood Ibrahim and his brother Anees.

There is no evidence that the weapons-grade plutonium has been stolen or diverted for illegal purposes
Well what on earth would anyone want it for other than illegal purposes?
Hoping that it is indeed an environmentalist whacko story instead of what it appears to be. The track record for Los Alamos has been so bad, it's easy to believe security may not be what it should be. As a matter of fact, knowing illegals (and spys at Los Alamos) have performed work (including at our military bases and for our nation's airlines), we've seen little to document changes have been made and those things won't happen again (reassurances we've never gotten).
Did you see my post above about the fencing company continuously hiring illegals? It is evidence the penalties have obvioulsly been so miniscule as to make the offense laughable. That company ought to be put out of business and the management fined and jailed. It's not as if it hasn't happened to them before. They are spitting at our nation's immigration laws. How can we take immigration speeches seriously when this sort of thing is the norm? End of rant.
Snip: Uses: bombs, nuclear reactors
Snip: The Los Angeles Times[2] says that one ten-thousandth of a gram (0.1 milligram) inhaled can cause cancer. This is correct: we have already estimated that 0.08 milligrams inhaled will have 100% probability of causing a fatal cancer. To inhale 0.1 milligram of plutonium, however, a person would have to inhale more than seven hundred thousand particles. (A single 0.1-milligram particle would have a diameter of over 260 micrometers, about 90 times too big to be readily inhaled.) Although a single respirable particle is unlikely to harm an individual,[13] there is still cause for concern if plutonium were to be dispersed in the atmosphere.
Interesting links.
Thanks DC.
You're welcome granny.
Hmmm....
Thanks for the link celtic-cat.
Snip: However, one imam led a prayer service in which he called for the destruction of the “Jews, Americans and Brits” and “enemies of Islam. The service included the following call:
“God, keep Islam and Muslims high and protect Islam
God, humiliate the infidels
God, humiliate the enemies of Islam
Jews, Americans and Brits
And all those who support them Who cooperate with them
And who are in alliance with them
God, destroy them all,
God, leave none of them alive,
God, give victory to mujahedin everywhere”
Imam calls prayer distortion of Islam
Snip: What is your opinion of this prayer by this Imam that asks for the destruction of Jews, Americans and Brits?
I think we should see it in the context of what a prayer leader would say when a group of soldiers is going to battle, to protect their people and destroy the enemy. Speaking like this, however, calling for the annihilation of millions of people is absurd; it is a distortion of Islam. Traditionally, Muslims pray to God to protect them from “the deniers of God”, but these do not include Christians or Jews, who are also People of the Book.

Snip: He criticised the security measures in place at British universities: "they appear blissfully unaware of the fact that an unchecked or poorly vetted overseas student admissions scheme could give potential terrorists access to state of the art techniques not just in the field of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) but also information technology ".
Snip: "A terrorist attack using a container to conceal a so-called dirty bomb...could probably stop global trade in its tracks," says U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Robert Bonner. Only about 2% are being inspected by Customs officials, according to the Brookings Institution.

"Swedish Imam calls for destruction of Jewry"
By Susanna Abramowicz in Stockholm Updated: 30/Nov/2005 17:28
article snippet: "An investigation by a Swedish radio station has revealed a deep-set hatred for Jews amongst some of the country’s Muslim leaders who have were caught on tape calling for the destruction of Jewry and other “infidels”.
Last Friday, the Swedish Radio program Ekot, The Echo, broadcast an investigation they had made into what is said in mosques and Muslim prayer services in Sweden.
Using a hidden microphone, they taped prayer sessions and conversations with 15 imams in Sweden.
They found that all imams but one, stated that war, violence and terrorism are incompatible with Islam.
However, one imam led a prayer service in which he called for the destruction of the “Jews, Americans and Brits” and “enemies of Islam. The service included the following call:
“God, keep Islam and Muslims high and protect Islam
God, humiliate the infidels
God, humiliate the enemies of Islam
Jews, Americans and Brits
And all those who support them
Who cooperate with them
And who are in alliance with them
God, destroy them all,
God, leave none of them alive,
God, give victory to mujahedin everywhere” "

"Iranian Alert - November 30 - Iran's President: "I will stop Christianity in this country""
Regime Change Iran ^ | 11.30.2005 | DoctorZin
Posted on 11/30/2005 10:21:54 PM PST by DoctorZIn
"Iran's President: "I will stop Christianity in this country"
Secret police crackdown results in the torture of 10 other Christians."
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "November 28 (Compass) – An Iranian convert to Christianity was kidnapped last week from his home in northeastern Iran and stabbed to death, his bleeding body thrown in front of his home a few hours later."
Good job of research, thank you.
I think the one thing that stands out and makes me think each day, is the number of weapons that the terrorists have.
Even the India stash, could be considered large.
Cindy's Gov. reports each day, gives counts of weapons that have to have cost billions of dollars.
I think that I think of them, as in the OKC bombing, where they used common materials, and a common method.
When you read the reports, the terrorist/criminals are using the very latest weapons on the market and have more than we do.
The mafia, communists and jihadi muslims, intertwine like a weaving, it is difficult to tell where one starts and ends.
On the missile at the airplane in California, did you hear the caller on CtoC, who said that KSVO, got the story by hearing the pilot on the radio making the report.
It was on the 29th, someone here was watching the 29th and there was some guy who makes predictions on CtoC, who had perdicted something for the 29th, they say this was the first time that he had missed, but then it wouldn't be a miss if the missile is true.
It might be interesting to go back to some of the old Los Alamos stories and see if they are written by the same man.
The base of the story came from an activist group on the east coast, it will help them to raise funds, as all those who are so afraid of the word nuclear, will donate to help defeat the evil people who would use it in good ways.
The facts that the article were based on, came from the internet, from unclassified information.
Dr. Bill says that even though he still works for them and is still designing weapons for the Gov. he does not have access to the so called facts that are in the article and that the information on where the Plutonium is stored.
He does know that it is in several secret places and well hidden and protected, to keep it from being stolen.
The goal is to take the Lab away from California and to give it to Texas and Lockheed.
I have read bits and pieces of the attempt to get it away from the Lawrence Livermore Lab, there is a lot of money involved, so therefore, lots of under the table money involved.
What Dr. Bill had to say, fit in with what I had read before.
The hiring of illegals is a deeper subject than I can address, but it does appear to be connected to businesses.
I listened to a PA. Congressman last night, he tried to explain that the illegals are needed for the business owners.
My thought is that we will have a better country, if the people who are on welfare have to go and get a job.
Having cleaned a few hog pens, etc, in my day, it is difficult to think in terms of "work a white man won't do".
During the depression, my father took his family to California and we picked fruit, even I picked cotton in the field by hand.
He was also in the CC Camps, working for a little money and food, I remember being in a tent on the side of a river.
H found a big turtle and planned to eat it the next day, so he took Mom's galvanized wash tub, put over it and put rocks on top.
The next day, the turtle and tub were both gone.....boy, did he catch hell....3 kids and no washtub....LOL
If the Gov. does not enforce the law, then there is no use in having one.
If you listen to Mark Edwards on:
the wake up America foundation.com
he is on at 10 pm, pacific time, monday thru thursday nights and it is all about illegal immigration.
I think we should see it in the context of what a prayer leader would say when a group of soldiers is going to battle, to protect their people and destroy the enemy. Speaking like this, however, calling for the annihilation of millions of people is absurd; it is a distortion of Islam. Traditionally, Muslims pray to God to protect them from “the deniers of God”, but these do not include Christians or Jews, who are also People of the Book<<<<<
I would say you have it figured out, it strikes me the same.
