U.S. Marines Guard Secret Iraqi City with Very Hot Nuclear Radiation Levels . . . Other than FOX, No American Television News Reports

In a valley 18 miles south of Baghdad the U.S. Marines guard a secret underground city. It lies under the city of Al-Tuwaitha that belongs to Iraqi Atomic Energy Commission. Earlier investigators and U.S. military Secret Operations squads located the top secret underground facility. Reports are beginning to come in that International Atomic Energy Agency inspectors sent to Iraq had never been allowed to inspect the huge secret complex. Now the Marines against enemy counter-attacks.

Reportedly, the complex has over 14 buildings that have very high levels of radiation. The radiation levels are so high that inspectors were shocked and dismayed. The inspectors also located caverns and storage facilities where many drums hold very dangerous "hot" water. The radiation levels are off the charts. It is unsafe for humans to be anywhere near this storage area.. Only three hours of exposure would cause uncontrolled vomiting.

I quote brief excerpt from the Pittsburg Tribune-Review which published this report earlier today:

* * * Last fall, they say, the Central Intelligence Agency prodded international inspectors to probe Al-Tuwaitha for weapons of mass destruction. The inspectors came away with nothing.

"They went through that site multiple times, but did they go underground? I never heard anything about that," said physicist David Albright, a former IAEA Action Team inspector in Iraq from 1992 to 1997. Officials at the IAEA could not be reached for comment.

* * * "The Marines should be particularly careful because of those high readings. Three hours at levels like that and people begin to vomit. That leads me to wonder, if the readings are accurate, whether radioactive material was deliberately left there to expose people to dangerous levels.

"You couldn't do scientific work in levels like that. You would die." * * *

I urge NewsPundit.net readers to read the complete report on the link above. It is a major breaking news report. It is very hot news.

Nuclear "Smoking Gun" Discovered

This morning FOX News was reporting the discovery. Nothing has been presented on the other major networks. When will CNN, ABC, CBS and NBC report this major breaking news story?

Maybe later this week. Maybe next week. Maybe after Iraq has been under total American control for three months. Your guess is as good as mine.

The report as been on the news wires for over four hours now. That is more than enough time for the higher ups to make a decision about whether talking heads ought to deliver the news to audiences across the nation. Why are they sitting on the story?.

Perhaps the report is too "radioactive" for the other major news networks to go near?

Are they waiting to interview Hans Blix? Mr. Blix ?

Would you rather have a nuke go off in NYC or have a ebola pandemic kill 200 million Americans? I was trying to say that the potential terrorist uses of biological weapons have the potential to kill alot more people than several pounds of illegal U or Pu.

Following the succession of posts, your remarks were offered to smith288 in post #6 who was concerned with the situation in Iraq. The situation there is what my remarks are confined to. The general topic of bioterror is something else again.

I fully agree that biowarfare is dangerous as hell (according to the Russians, SARS may be man-made and it's here in the US now). Even so, there are barriers, time elements, geographic boundaries and prophylactic measures. With strategic nukes, anyone in the kill radius gets flash fried or blenderized by projectile velocity debris. No chance for protective measures, warnings or decontamination.

In any event, dealing with the terror threat is a one nation and leader at a time proposition. I guess I could worry about an asteroid hit too, but that is beside the point.

This one report is being quoted everywhere, yet nowhere (over 24 hours later) have I seen a second, independent report. I hope we aren't being taken for a ride here.

Lol, that is one scary photo! Scary because it looks too real :-D

Marburg, Ebola and smallpox could theoretically be spread by air of they were "weaponized". Otherwise, contagion works via transfer of blood serum or lymph, like AIDS. Thus, while these diseases have a high mortality rate, they are not extremely contagious.

Some kind of superflu or a supercold (SARS?) on the other hand could be a huge problem. Can you imagine the common cold killing 90%?

Michael Moore is an insult to the human race. He is a sick DNA joke. Like most libs, they have depended on their butt buddies in the media to protect them by not showing how mentally ill they are. Those days are over.

This pig should move to Moscow or Paris where he will be welcomed.

For review.

I was trying to look up on a map last night the distance from Ramadi to Al-Tuwaitha.

I had a lot of trouble because the spellings of these words change and I didn't always know if I was reading the same towns.

How far are these two places from each other?
