Without going through the thread--

Has anyone else speculated on the stops this ship makes in the PRC + Islamic countries? Strikes me as remotely possible that IF a nuke was/is on board that some parties might have seen a chance to do some real damage to NY or Norfolk, and have the diaper heads take the blame...

Just idle speculation.

That would be damn sneaky for the Chinese to do, and would mean total nuclear hell for them if they were found out.

But it would be a cheap easy way for them to cripple a big % of our Navy (taking out Norfolk).

I was thinking along the same lines myself, as to the chicoms. Remember W's first international "crisis" involved the chinese. Also, China supplies the Iranians and who knows who else...
