For a little more background on this, I found this article. It's a little bit long, but got lot's of good info. I'm not posting the entire article here, just this excerpt and a the link. I would encourage people to read it:
Loose Nukes A radioactive "dirty bomb" could be headed for your neighborhood (source= SFGate.com)
There was the U.S.-made nuclear fuel rod smuggled from a reactor in the Congo - Italian mafiosos were arrested for trying to peddle it to an intermediary for a Middle Eastern buyer. There were the Chechen rebels who planted a container holding the cesium-137 core of a medical device in a Moscow park and then tauntingly alerted Russian reporters.

I am outraged to learn that the DNC has lost a nuclear fuel rod. But did they really LOSE it? Why, it wouldn't surprise me if Terry McAuliffe and his minions over at the DNC sold the nuclear fuel rod as a way of raising more millions for their Dem candidates. This is an absolutely outrageous, unpatriotic . . .

Wait. You say it's the DRC, not the DNC? Never mind

Those who form stratagies aginst this nation know the locatins of the bases and labs and their detection equipment. These places purge the air alot. A SIMUlTANEOUS exposer would be mistaken by the supercomputers as an attack and they would start up automatic self defense of our nation! BUT I AM SURE WASHINGTON KNOWS THAT.
