Author Paul Williams: Al-Qaida 'Definitely Has Nukes'

America is facing a nuclear attack from al-Qaida terrorists living in the U.S. or crossing our all but unguarded borders, warns Dr. Paul Williams in his chilling new book "The Day of Islam: The Annihilation of America and the Western World."

Remarkably, just hours after NewsMax.com conducted an exclusive interview with the author, U.S. authorities announced the arrest of three terrorists who planned an attack on New York City's JFK airport — which read as if details surrounding the plot had been taken directly from the pages of his book.

Williams, a former FBI consultant and an expert on the subjects of al-Qaida and Osama bin Laden, also is the author of "Osama's Revenge," "The Next 9/11," and "The al-Qaida Connection." He has long maintained that the menace posed by this sinister group of murderous terrorists is both real and widespread.

In his interview with NewsMax, Williams discussed al-Qaida's successful efforts to obtain nuclear weapons for use against the United States.

NewsMax: Does al-Qaida have nuclear weapons?

Williams: They definitely have nukes. There's no doubt about it. There's positive proof. As I wrote in my book, in the first three months of Operation Enduring Freedom — the Gulf War — our troops found in a cave outside of Khandahar in Afghanistan a canister filled with Uranium 238 [the basic ingredient for a nuclear bomb] and in Turnak Farms [where at one time 1,800 members of al-Qaida lived and worked] they found jars and jars and jars of yellow cake [pure uranium, dried].

The most alarming thing of all involved a Pakistani operative who was driving over the Allenby Bridge between Jordan and Israel in a shabby Volkswagen mini-bus. The Israelis stopped him and in the back of the Volkswagen was a plutonium implosion device, the most sophisticated of all nuclear weapons. According to the Mossad people I spoke to, it was in excess of 10 kilotons.

It could have taken out all of Israel in the blink of an eye. If one of these babies went off with 10 kilotons, first of all you'd have the conventional explosion, which if it occurred at the site of 9/11, would take out all of lower Manhattan.

From that would come a fireball that would be about 750 feet in diameter — the core would reach a temperature of 10 million degrees Celsius, which means in the blink of an eye everything would disintegrate. After that would come juggernaut blasts ripping through the city with winds in excess of 640 miles per hour, and after that would come the mushroom cloud and the radioactive fallout that would spew into the five boroughs of New York, into Connecticut and New Jersey. The end result is that millions would be dead.

NewsMax: What is the possibility that there is a store of nukes here in the United States?

Williams: There's no doubt about that. Before 9/11 a guy by the name of Sheik Kabbani, the president of the Supreme Islamic Council of North America, appeared before the Senate and the House and said that over 48 nukes were here. There was also a Waziristan summit meeting in Pakistan in April 2004. Attending it were the leading planners of the next 9/11. Included was one Sharif al Masry, and Adnan el-Shukrijumah, the next Mohammad Atta, and a terrorist from Brooklyn.

They all confirmed that nuclear weapons had been developed by al-Qaida with the help of scientists and technicians from the A.Q. Khan Research laboratories. The most chilling thing, they said was that all of the weapons had been forward deployed to Mexico and transported over the border into the U.S.

This story was reported in a little tiny paragraph in Time magazine. It was buried in there. The fact that nuclear weapons had been developed [by al-Qaida], and the researchers at the A.Q. Khan facility had confirmed that, and transported to Mexico and then into the United States — you couldn't get a bigger story than that.

NewsMax: Doesn't this indicate the seriousness of the problem with our borders?

Williams: It's madness. The borders are not just open. People say the "porousness" of our borders but that's not accurate — our borders are wide open.

"A nuclear bomb here; say good bye to Mecca and Medina."

Add Tehran and Damascus and that the right response but I truly wonder if we have the guts to do it...

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Not at this time. We’ll have to be hit first.

[Little Ray]

He’s selling books.

Anyone who thinks a 10 KT nuke would take out all of Israel has failed his WMD classes. It would make a hell of a dent in a city, and the fallout would be a b!tch, but it would not take out “all of Israel in the blink of an eye.”

As for the rest, if Al-Qaeda had even ONE nuke in the USA, they would have used it, just to prove they’re still potent.

[Wyatt's Torch]

“We’ll have to be hit first.”

Even then I wonder if we have the guts. The “just talk to them” crowd will cower in fear of the “cycle of violence”...

[ovrtaxt]

You won’t get any flames from me. Check my homepage on ‘how to win the war”.

[TalkingPoint]

Iv’e been following Paul for about three years now and to be honest I don’t know what to think. On one hand most of his claims have been repeated by people in the know for years now. How much of it is truth?; one can only guess. I think I tend to think AQ would have done it already because I don’t buy the whole “they are patient” thing. You can’t sit on those thing’s like you have all the time in the world.

“I believe that between now and 2005, Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida will attack the U.S. with [stolen] nuclear weapons. I have no doubt about it,” says Williams.

“Before 9/11 a guy by the name of Sheik Kabbani, the president of the Supreme Islamic Council of North America, appeared before the Senate and the House and said that over 48 nukes were here”

yep because no one would notice arab men (or anyone for that fact) ordering the needed equipment to take care of those 48 weapons.

Plutonium gives off much more radiation than Uranium and thus makes it more likely to be detected. Plutonium also needs much thicker shielding otherwise the people working on it would be fried by the material

[oldstyle81]

you assume that terrorists can make small nuclear weapons which is exceptionally more difficult than making a car size bomb with the same yield of a large weapon.

[montag813]

I used to think this guy was a total crackpot when I heard him years ago on the Michael Savage show. But so many of his predictions, large and small, have come to pass. And his brave battle with that McMaster University in Canada was truly heroic. Here is a link to his legal defense fund, which is necessary because of the insane actions of the University to try and cover up the terrorist activities of its own Muslim students and faculty.

You should take a logic class. Bush and Chertoff being jokes has no relation on the motivation of the Jihadis plans nor their will in carrying them out.

I’m not trying to ‘scare’ anybody.. if you feel scared then maybe you should get help instead of trying to silence people with your hysteria.

[pacelvi]

I read somewhere that an attack order was given to nuke the Republican convention in NYC in 04. I dont remember what happened, either it was a dud or it was called off.

Yes, I know it sounds silly to forget the outcome, but I was half asleep when I read it.

[LIConFem]

Every time I see his face, the name “Little Enos” still pops into my head.

[Little Ray]

At they very least, if they couldn’t detonate one in a city, they would have detonated one just to PROVE they had them... and reaped the benefits of recruiting and blackmail.

[oldstyle81]

I was just watching Fox News and i hear this and was like whoa, i never heard this before. the guy named Copley said this

“they tried to set off a nuclear weaspon at the RNC but it wouldnt work” not the exact wording but he said it was because it did not work. However on another site his company has this
whats funny about this
“Ultimately, the jihadists’ plan was aborted on instructions from Osama bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri because of theological rather than operational reasons”

Which is it, it didnt work or it was called off, differing stories look bad and really tear apart your credibilty

[oldstyle81]

Deuteronomy 18
21 You may say to yourselves, “How can we know when a message has not been spoken by the LORD ?” 22 If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him.

Here is some stuff that might interest you if you consider him a prophet
the nukes he claims the british agents saw were dirty bombs

That fatwa from that saudi cleric talks about dirty bombs, not nuclear weapons. Williams takes dirty bombs and says they are nuclear weapons (given to a extent they are but no one thinks of dirty bombs when Nuclear weapons is said)

he claims that al qaida tested nuclear weapons in afghanistan in 2000, of course this is from Hamid Mir who said they were dirty bombs

Here Mir says it was a dirty bomb

Here Williams says Nuclear suitcase weapons

.

tis is the plain he claims that one guy is using to get nukes into the united states. Pretty small, multiple trips? Like we wouldnt have knocked him out of the air one of the 14 (back and forth trips) across the border

The sources for the suitcase weapons has also changed
