On a serious note, poster Matar bin Thalig is posting nuclear explosion images again on the Arabic forums, in message about President Bush.

I can do without the pictures of exploding nukes :(

To All,

A request relating to the specific topic of this thread . . .

I am looking for an article from October/November 2001. It was published in "The Dawn", the same Pakistani newspaper that did the first UBL interview after 9/11 (the one where he claimed to possess chemical and nuclear weapons).

In a separate article, (possibly a few weeks after that), there was a story (never verified as far as I know) that there had been an effort to place two suitcase bombs in NYC. The article even gave the serial number for one of the bombs (I think it had 5-10 digits and a lot of "8"s and "0"s).

I saved it back then, but cannot find it and am coming up empty on my searches. I guess I have a need to vent, so I am going to write a letter to my local congressman after work today (maybe I should fax it with all the ricin news as they may be destroying or delaying snail mail???) and wanted to cite the article. If anybody has a link, it would be most appreciated.

(Sept-Oct 2001)

1. planes (NY and DC)
2. mail (anthrax)
3. nukes aborted or prevented (???)

(Feb 2004)

1. planes (NY and DC flights cancelled)
2. mail (ricin)
3. nukes (???)
