Nuclear-bomb website woos al-Qaida warriors
WND ^ | November 7, 2005 | Joesph Farah

At least one nuclear physicist is expressing alarm over an al-Qaida website that has posted a detailed manual providing instructions for building nuclear, "dirty" and biological bombs – both for the precise details the manual provides and for the site's growing popularity.

The internet forum, Al-Firdaws, or Paradise, contains "80 pages of instructions and pictures of kitchen bomb-making techniques," reports the London Times. The site has had 57,000 hits, worrying terror experts the information is serving as a recruiting tool for al-Qaida.

John Hassard, a reader in physics at Imperial College, London, says, "Normally you just get generic principles, but this appears to be more like a proper instruction manual. The thing about this website that is striking is that it is very particular. A lot of effort has been put into it."

One more time to regret that the CIA is nothing but a gaggle of shiny-loafered liberal wussies.

"At least one nuclear physicist is expressing alarm"

That must be one dangerous web site. I agree. We need that site crushed. Break out CARNIVORE. Heck, pay the Chinese Hackers. If we don't have hackers, we darn well know the Chinese Military does.

Al-Quesa probably already has an order in with Iran to purchase (or be given) one of their bombs.

No, you just trace it back to the originating servers and have an accidental fire break out.

Or change some of the HTML instructions to make it blow up during assembly.

"Find their servers and blow up the hardware."

I'm fine with that, but the real problem is the wetware storage devices.

Yes, we need them showing the blue screen as soon as possible.

Hmmm...could it be that the phrase "blue screen of death" was coincidentally prescient?

I'm pushing to have it be the new "Tango Uniform" or "assumed room temperature". He's "showing the blue screen". Pass it around.

No, they won't do that. They'll wait until a bomb goes off then, try and look for suspects on the site. TOO LATE!

It's only a matter of time. There have always been evil people in the world, it seems to me they have been limited by the technology available to them. 50-100 years from now the enemy probabably will have technology to blow this world up.

I'd like to see some dead bodies there, too. But well, I guess we can't expect super secret agents like Valorie Plame to alter their busy schedules.

Just the fact that the CIA hired her tells the whole story.
