Former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Monday night that Mideast terrorists are determined to obtain nuclear weapons and when they do, they will use them on New York City.

"They're going to attack American again and again," Netanyahu told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes." And the great danger that we face is..... if they acquire nuclear weapons - if any part of this terror network acquires nuclear weapons, they will use it. And history as we know it will come to a pass."

In an exchange with Sean Hannity, the one-time Israeli chief said there is no doubt which city would be first on the terrorist nuke target list.

HANNITY: America needs to understand, if they get nuclear weapons they already have the willingness to use them. If we allow that to happen, if we don't win that race, (then) the world is a much more dangerous place for our children.

NETANYAHU: Not a more dangerous (world) -- they'll drop it in New York. They'll drop it right here -- right in the place where we sit.

"Hannity & Colmes" is telecast from FNC's Manhattan studios.

If they are going to bomb, see that they get Boston also. That way we'll get rid of the idiots that elected Kennedy as well as the ones who elected Hillary.

I believe that some would like to. There are a rainbow of disturbed people out there. Hell, if there are Americans that want to nuke Arabs, why shouldn't there be Arabs that want to nuke Americans? Bibi Maf.

[jonatron]

dang! That would be so rude...and after we've pampered them, and defended their peace-loving religion, put them on welfare, propped-up their 3rd world dictatorships...WAIT A MINUTE!

New York has Human shields - The United Nations.

Drop it from what? A magic carpet?

Acquiring the nuke is the hard part. Delivering the nuke is the harder part.

And lets face facts, Bibi, they're going for Israel first. Then maybe NYC.

Best that we nip the whole problem in the bud though, and that is what we are doing slowly and methodically. A little too slowly maybe, but we'll get it done.

[Timesink]

If they do, they might kill a couple of million Americans, but hundreds of millions of Muslims will die. Islam itself will be wiped off the face of the earth by billions of vigilantes.

[oyez]

Sounds like a death wish for a whole culture. If they did we wouldn't have to use ground troops, anywhere. I don't think the Arab world want to risk dying for this handfull.

New York has Human shields - The United Nations.
They, like certain other persons of noteriety and infamy on 9-11, will simply be "out of the country for a prolonged absence".
Having had ample opportunity/warning to "exit the building" I'm sure.
Purely "speculation" you know...

Nope. They would definately hit America first. 9-11 was in America, not Israel. America is the 'big satan', Israel is only the little one. They figure that taking out America effectively takes out Israel too.

Also, it would probably be much easier to get a nuke into the U.S. then into Israel. America has very large borders, and can't possibly patrol them all air-tight. Israel can't either, but never-the-less, security/per kilometer of border is much better there.

And finally, while i'm sure America would totally lose it and do something horrible to them in return, I'm not so sure how it would play out. I mean if they couldn't figure out who did it... like with 9-11 (for a few weeks) or the Anthrax, who would they nuke? I doubt that they would nuke everyone... i don't know maybe...

On the other hand... if they nuked Israel, that would pretty much be the end of the State... so at that point I think there is little doubt Israel would let their birds fly towards every single Arab state... regardless of who did it, or whether they could figure it out at all.

I disagree. They want to target the US before Israel. They believe that if the US falls Israel must also fall like in dominoes. Read their literature. America is the Great Satan, whereas Israel is only the little Satan.

The word 'drop' doesn't have to mean from a plane. A well placed dirty bomb in any number of abandoned warehouses in NYC would be an ideal location to drop a bomb.

And Bibi is so right. The only thing preventing OBL from using a dirty bomb is that he doesn't have one, but if that should happen, he is willing to risk all.

[IcommGen]

Oh and btw, I don't think by 'drop it' he was saying literally drop it, like from a plane or missile.

Just that they would set it off. Could be by truck. You know, get it past the borders. I mean 1000's of pounds of drugs get in every year, it isn't so ridiculous to figure a couple hundred pound bomb could be smuggled in.

Then just rent a van, load it up, and take a trip to NYC.

[IcommGen]

Took the words right out of my mouth... I think we posted almost the same things, word for word, simultaneously.

[Fulbright]

I agree. The Egyptians behind bin Laden have identified the US as target #1.

I have been amazed recently at the kind of response this kind of news, which should absoluetly scare the crap out of anybody, gets on this forum. We must have a new and very different group of members out there. My guess is that a lot of them suddenly joined up after September 11.

...I believe that some would like to. There are a rainbow of disturbed people out there. Hell, if there are Americans that want to nuke Arabs, why shouldn't there be Arabs that want to nuke Americans? Bibi Maf.

Bin Floggin and his buddies in sand-land have been threatening "jihad" against just about every country on the planet. Aside from a grenade launcher, he's seriously ill-equipped to carry this out.

If the United States wanted to declare a "jihad" on Afghanistan, all it takes is a few phone calls and some Air Force Majors turning keys to light up some serious stuff, and the candle will burn very bright.

If a nuke is used on US soil, there will be serious hell to pay.

[rebdov]

Great minds...

[Travis McGee]

The Islemming are charging for the sea screaming holy jihad. We must not block their path, but render all assistance.

[Imperial Warrior]

Netanyahu is absolutely right and I wish to God he were our Secretary of State instead of Colin "Stepinfetchit" Powell.

It is easy to deliver. Simply put it on a fright ship and take the ship into New York harbor. One could do the same thing in the San Francisco bay as well. I'm tired of people saying they can't deliver one if they had one. It would be easy.

[rebdov]

We are always being barraged from within and without with disinformation in order to disarm us. We must remain vigilant. The forces of evil are working 24/7 to find all the most vulnerable targets of the US. It's also true that some folks are so wrapped up in their Jew hatred that they can't takea minute off from their program to notice that it isn't the Jews threatening the US.

We are such a good and charitable people that we still find it hard to believe that people want to kill us. The enemy knows this and will play on it and utilize our goodness to make us targets for his evil machinations.

On the home front we need ferocious warriors to defend us, just as much as we need them in Aghanistan.
