Red Mercury
The WMD no one wants to officially talk about
Its deadly potential cannot be ignored!!!
On Friday, September 24, 2004, British police arrested 4 suspects for allegedly trying to purchase a highly powerful, radioactive material, originally made in Russia, know as Red Mercury.
These four supposedly were willing to pay $ 541,000 a kilogram, on behalf of a Saudi Arabian, (described as sympathetic to the Muslim cause), whose name was not disclosed.
The News of the World said that the material was developed by Soviet scientists during the Cold War for making briefcase nuclear bombs that could kill people within a few city blocks.
Sam Cohen, the physicist who invented the neutron bomb, sheds a little more light on the destructive power of red mercury. As quoted from a June 15, 1997 article by Christopher Ruddy of the Tribune-Review, it states:
Most frightening for Cohen is the relative ease by which neutron bombs can be created with a substance called red mercury. Red mercury is a compound containing mercury that has undergone irradiation. When exploded, it creates tremendous heat and pressure the same type needed to trigger a fusion device such as a mini-neutron bomb.
Before, an obstacle to creating a nuclear bomb was the need for plutonium, which when exploded could create a fusion reaction in hydrogen atoms. But red mercury has changed that. The cheap substance has been produced in Russia, Cohen said, and shipped on the black market throughout the world.
Cohen said that when UN inspectors went to Iraq to examine the Iraqis nuclear weapons capabilities, the U.N. team found documents showing that they had purchased quantities of red mercury. The material means that a neutron bomb can be built the size of a baseball but able to kill everyone within several square blocks.
Another article, The Balance of Terror and the Red Mercury Nightmare states that Iraq possesses s-megaton micro-nuclear warheads. These are softball sized two-megaton fusion bombs triggered by an irradiated and compressed compound of mercury antimony oxide. This device doubles the nuclear yield with a hundredfold reduction in weight. Using heavy hydrogen instead of uranium or plutonium to fuel its explosive reaction, this handheld nuclear weapon cannot be detected by U.S. sensors.
Red Mercury
.The CIA says that it does not exist, yet terrorist organizations worldwide are willing to pay outrageous amounts of money to procure it
Scientists have alluded that nuclear weapons containing red mercury, can enter the United States, UNDETECTED, be placed in cities all across the country, and cause cataclysmic destruction
from a nuclear bomb, of incredible power, the size of a softball
I dont know about you folks, but this REALLY scares me!
Now, what bothers me even more, is that last year, confidential intelligence sources informed me that a Special Ops unit in Iraq had lost track of about a ton of red mercury. I have not heard anything to the contrary, so I am assuming that it is still missing. How could that happen???
According to the research that I have done and talking to the contacts that I have in the Intelligence community, red mercury not only destroys human life, but kills every living thing in its path for eternity!!! In other words, where its destructive energy has touched, NOTHING will ever live again, not at least in our lifetime!
Let me go one further, my sources inform me that it would only take a teaspoon of red mercury to kill all living creatures in the Great Lakes.
So now that I have your attention
.think about this
..We have all seen or heard about the posts from the Arabic forums that indicate that an American city will disappear (to refresh your memory click here), are these threats really that far-fetched????
Think again!

FWI...Gold at $411.10. USD at $88.46.
Yeah, I'm scared too... now it's Russian compression technology in "s-megatons" and missing red mercury and I hope that means our side has it hidden and just didn't want the UN to get their grubby mitts on it.
With all due respect, this sounds like an urban legend - this entire story has most of the stigmata.
It's quite possible of course that some isotope of mercury exists which can be used to enhance neutron radiation production in an atomic bomb (of some description). However it seems extremely unlikely that such an isotope would be radioactive enough to poison the entire Great Lakes ecosystem to the extent that it could kill all life with only a teaspoonful of the stuff. Even if it did exist, such an isotope would have to be so radioactive that it would decay very quickly - making it essentially impossible either to produce or store significant quantities of it, or for it to be able to poison the environment for generations. (Remember that we're talking about cubic miles of water, and that large quantities of water will tend to block radiation, so that any given point in that volume of water will only be irradiated by decays occuring within a very short distance - much different from propagation in air).
As for the price quoted, well, the alchemists used to be willing to pay a lot for anything that promised to turn lead into gold. Merely because someone is gullible enough to pay a lot of money for something doesn't say anything about its intrinsic value.
