A leading Muslim cleric Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, founder of the Islamic Supreme Council of America (ISCA), insists bin Ladens network has bought more than 20 nuclear warheads carried in suitcases.
In 1999 Kabbani first warned the U.S. State Department of bin Laden's impending terrorism.
He told the U.S. Government bin Laden was training suicide bombers in Afghanistan ready to move to any part of the world.
Kabbani said the nuclear weapons, sometimes referred to as "suitcase bombs", were sold by the Russian mafia.
How about...hey...maybe plans for de-stablizing tail fins of airbuses.
How about a bad hair day for Hillary Clinton.
What we need is a pepto bismol and a nap.I think they have all come out of the woodwork here...and with the anniversary of the shooting of JFK coming up this month.More conspiracy theories.We better hope to God they don't have one suitcase nuke let alone 20.
His death or capture. One at a time would get him released, more than likely. Or most of them if he's killed. They Love Revenge.
I thought I recognized the name of this muslim, and I did.
This sheik is a world renown Sufi, and his books are numerous and extremely intellectual and scholarly. Here's one page of his book titles at Amazon:
You have mail.
Terrorism tolerance is another name for political correctness.
Guess it's time to get rid of the Democrap party. Lets roll!
I hope someone in the FBI is taking this seriously and following up on it. ---Fitz
I think we the American People should be taking this seriously. Not this particular report --- which is most-likely a PR hoax --- but the very real possibility that the Russian Mafia has sold bombs to terrorists and the very real possibility that those terrorists either have one inside the USA or will try to sneak one in at some future date.
The way to get serious, in my opinion, is to recognize how deep the hatred for us is in the Muslim community, rethink the the whole question of immigration law, put aside our fears of profiling, support a Terrorist Deportation Plan and let our representatives know our votes will hinge on this issue.
One of the big problems with people such as yourself as well as most journalists is that you are hopelessly uneducated.
Educated people know that the U.S. has nuclear-armed Trident submarines which can not be detected by the rest of the world. It's safe to say that they would always be able to get off a shot. Educated people know that the U.S. maintains secure ICBM's in thousands of diverse locations. Timing and geography insure that we will always be able to get most of those shots off regardless of the form of attack against us.
Further, educated people know that North Korea, Iran, Iraq, and Syria have never carried out a single nuclear test (which are easily detected with century-old seismic equipment). You don't go starting a nuclear war with the U.S. if you aren't certain that your nukes work in the first place.
Moreover, Russia is on our side and China DESPISES the Islamic militants who are causing trouble in its Western provinces. In fact, Russia is literally at war with Muslims in Chechnya, Bosnia, and Serbia/Kosovo. Furthermore Russia really wants to sell its oil to the largest oil consumer on the planet, the U.S. (not that you'd know that fact, either). Clearly their economy would suffer if the largest market in the world were to be suddenly nuked.
What is even more clear is that you are a typical uneducated newbie who spouts nonsense on FR. Come back when you get a real education. Until then, go away.
They are a mostly united force, but not a sovereign nation. The question is: Is our love for freedom more powerful than their religious zeal?
I am NOT arguing with you -- I am just sharing that I once looked at a number of his books, and he is obviously very intelligent and educated.
Does anyone know the whole story
While I doubt few really know, I can't imagine that the "fuse" which processes the codes, can be all that hard to work around. At some point the "fuse" has to tell the "package" to go. Now that might be one signal line, it might be multiple ones, but given enough time an electronics engineer or electronics technition should be able to find it, and patch around it. But then what do I know? I do know that I wouldn't want to bet my life, or the lives of countless others on it being impossible.
Like who'd a thunk! Of course they'd go to the socialist indoctrination centers. We've known who the enemy was for years! Left wing waco extremists!
We didn't need him to tell us that!
I would rather die on my feet than live on my knees!
