Yeah- IF they had em, that would be the way to get them here.

And there are the technical problems with maintaining and using them.

A healthy skeptical question would be - if they had here, why hadn’t they used them?

You're right. They don't have them.

The guy's selling a book. That should answer anyone's questions.

But isn’t it too heavy to cart around in a carry-on bag?

It seems that if the guy needed a VW bus to carry the big bomb around, you couldn’t just haul it past even a weak security at the airport.

And yeah, the people in this country has its head in the sand — at least a goodly number — but so does our congress and that scares me even more.

I mean by that: we didn’t start the war on terror. So how can our congress declare it over? How dumb is that!!!?

If one wanted to detect Plutonium while driving around in a vehicle, what type of detection device would one use? Would it be a neutron detector? Are they portable?

Errr, umm, space modulator?

Ditto. If they had them, they would have used them already.

Good point. I think that they would have used it on Israel long before any thought of transporting such a device to the US.

Is he selling books or telling truth?

"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."

Selling books

A prophet is always rejected in his own land.

McMaster University has brought a law suit against him for investigating Islamic terrorists at McMaster. He investigated the Muslim enclave called Islamberg. He got people to thinking about the radioactive Polonium 210 that poisoned Alexander Litvinenko, other than Putin's doing it. Now he's warning what our government says will eventually happen. And we all know the borders have been wide open since 911.

At any given time, there are millions of people there. Guards are all over the place to not only ensure that only the faithful go in, but to make sure that nothing weird is brought in. Mecca is one of the msot secure cities in the whole of Saudi Arabia. If OBL and his goons are truly religious, such an action would be unthinkable and the schmuck who suggested it is probably rotting somewhere in the deserts. It would be the equivalent of hiding the same in the Vatican. Most Catholics would never stand for it. They may be willing to do it in “mosques”, but the truly holy places are off limits.

Indeed, YES...!!!

It is possible that their sponsors (Russia, NK, Iran, etc.) haven’t given them the go-ahead yet. Note: it is not necessary that the sponsors share all political and religious ideology with the actors — they just need to share a common goal.

I find it hard to believe they wouldn’t have already used them.

Well probably because they have a larger strategy they’re trying to work out.

How short-sighted are most of you people?

Do you understand what they’re trying to do? I think they learned thier lesson about attacking too soon.

They didn’t anticipate our response to 9/11, so they learned that lesson.

I believe AQ is coordinating with Iran (it’s been specualted that Iran has shelted Osama at some point)

One possible explanation would be the knowledge that US submarines alone could and would eliminate Mecca and Medina within 24 hours of a nuke explosion in America.

I suspect, these terrorists aren't as stupid as we would like to think. They or their handlers (Russia, Korea, China, ?) are looking to create a scapegoat to shed doubt that the nuke came from Muslims.

But...who really knows?
