Is this for real?

If Israel found a terrorist with any form of atomic weapon, surely we would have seen a massive retaliation?

On the other hand, if this is for real, then this kicks the possibility of a radiological attack against the US from 'possible' to 'probable', maybe even inevitable.

Is there anyone here who does not believe that the threat of a nuclear strike from Bin laden is no longer a matter of if, but when and where?

IMHO, this will be our third wave here in America. Radiological Hot Zones: coming soon to a symbol of capitalism near you.

God help us.

Scary. Arizona Republic had article that the Phoenix hiking club had 6 individual reports of suspicious middle eastern men with identical orange backpacks at the top of Squaw Peak Mountain. Announcement made to alert hikers. I do not know how to copy articles, but now would be the time. I believe it was in yesterdays online edition. Could you please try to add it Annie? Game here this weeend as well as Nascar.

From bin Laden I think the where would be NYC or DC. As to the when, that depends entirely upon what steps we are willing to take.

He will do it if he has any opportunity to do so.

Inevitable, yes I would agree. I just hope they haven't discovered the nightmarish consequences of Cobalt-59.

Hey, I wonder if WND is getting their stories from FR!

Not only was this posted over a week ago, but it was discussed in great detail, and then the source was tracked down and posted by Freeper spycatcher.

The other thread is here: Israelis Capture Man With Radiological Backpack Bomb

FR Axiom 23: Every old story has been posted at Free Republic at least once whether you can find it in a search or not. ;-)

This was a frightening story when first posted and it is still frightening today.

I could write ten pages outlining all the implications of this story but the thread covered many and the rest you should be bright enough to figure out for yourself.

"suspicious middle eastern men with identicaL orange backpacks at the top of Squaw Peak Mountain"

And what is it about Squaw Peak Mountain that might attract terrorists?

If you go to arizonarepublic.com Under sight search: type in Sqaw Peak and read article from yesterday. Could you copy it to here?

So once more we will have so called experts telling us that it is impossible for those who are engaged in a Jihad against us to have these weapons. when one goes off in the USA they will blame some Right Eing Group as they are now with the Anthrax attacks.

I guess we better get used to the Liberals who want to go after their enemies instead of the enemies of America.

Stay well - stay safe - Stay armed - Yorktown

I think I might need a tin foil hat. This is the 1st time I'm feeling a little nervous. Let's hope this is nothing!

If accurate, let's start at the "A" line in Israel and evict the Islamic squaters to a place more in line with the object of their worship, the Moon.
