Well, in that case I guess you'll stop 5% of Al Qaeda's nukes.

Absolutely correct, every container contains an Al Qaeda nuke. The dirty little secret that the screaming faces won't tell you is that a much larger percentage of containers are passively checked for radioactivity.

No, of course not. But if you're only checking 5% of containers, you're not creating much of a disincentive for Al Qaeda to try to smuggle in nukes that way. And passive radiation detectors might work --- or they might not.
