"Ex-hostage hires bounty hunters"
Herald Sun Australia ^ | 26 June 2005
Posted on 06/26/2005 3:40:14 AM PDT by naturalman1975
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A HOSTAGE held alongside Australian Douglas Wood in Iraq has hired bounty hunters to track down his former captors, promising to eliminate them one by one.
Swede Ulf Hjertstrom, who was held for several weeks with Mr Wood in Baghdad, was released by his kidnappers on May 30.
Mr Hjertstrom has since claimed he shared information with US and Iraqi troops about Mr Wood which led to the release of the 63-year-old Australian engineers two weeks ago, after 47 days in captivity.
Now, he wants to find those responsible."
Selling nuclear on the black market, worth reading, as it covers more than the usual reports:

Cheney knows where bin Laden is hiding, but not exact 'address'
(Agencies)
Updated: 2005-06-25 17:16
US Vice President Dick Cheney said that he knows where Al-Qaeda terror chief Osama bin Laden is hiding out, but not his precise location.
"We've got a pretty good idea of the general area that he's in, but I -- you know, I don't have the street address," Cheney told CNN in an interview, confirming comments by Central Intelligence Agency chief Porter Goss.

Russia: Militants tried to steal nukes
UPI ^ | 6/24/05
Posted on 06/25/2005 7:14:05 AM PDT by Straight Vermonter
MOSCOW, Russia (UPI) -- Russia`s head of nuclear arsenal safety says terrorists, whom others say were Chechen militants, have tried twice to steal nuclear weapons.
Col. Gen. Igor Valynkin said the thieves had tried in 2002 and 2003 to break into nuclear warhead warehouses, Britain`s Independent newspaper reported.

Good links granny it is for sure they are out there, but who knows where? Its seems there is a news block for about a year on the Russina Nukes and Mafia or it just could be me?!?! LOL
This is interesting but a year old...
Then the question comes up: why was this done and who benefits?
The operation which was carried out had many goals. It was an artificial stimulation of demand. An attempt to prove that there exists in Russia organized crime; that a nuclear mafia similar to the narco-mafias exists which can order and transfer whatever is needed. But such a mafia does not exist. This is confirmed by the fact that the people who steal this material, as a rule hide it very painstakingly for a long time and only then begin to look for a buyer. Some of them kept it for a year and a half because they couldn't find a distribution channel or a buyer. In all these cases, the end-user of the materials is very important. What is most interesting is that there has not been one case in which we have been able to get our foreign colleague to give an answer as to who the end-user is for the material. Claims that it is for Libya, Iran or Iraq become unsustainable myths.
Secondly, the above named countries can't be dependent on casual and unclear shipment through non-professionals... All of these countries are placing their bet on creating an independent system of producing enriched nuclear materials. They would never get into business with chance partners.
It should be said that the field of information around the nuclear problems in Russia is filled with such disinformation that it makes your hairs stand on end. By the way, there was a confirmation, for example, that, Narzarbaev sent nuclear material from Kazakhstan to the US by airplane. All of this is nonsense.

We're leaving Tuesday, and so I'll be around the TM and bang list until then, but I choose to post this now and our general itinerary in the hopes that folks who have knowledge of these areas and what is going on there NOW may be able to give me some important tips about traffic backups due to construction, or local crime waves underway or anti-gun jurisdictions, or locally infamous speedtraps designed to generate revenue (the entire state of Louisiana has a history of this!). Feel free to freepmail me with this info if you can. I'll check back in when we get back in mid-July. Prayers for safety would be greatly appreciated, too. And don't worry, I'll be lawfully armed and carrying for the whole trip. I just wanted to explain my absence from posting.

MOSCOW. (Vladimir Orlov, director of the PIR Center, for RIA Novosti) - A key issue on the global agenda is how to stop international terrorists from gaining access to weapons of mass destruction and their components, including weapons-grade materials.

In San Antonio you MUST stop and have a cold cervesa at Menger hotel bar which is within short 100 Yard walkin distance of the Alamo.
The old Menger Bar is where TR recruited some of his Rough Riders........my favorite stop when I'm in San Antonio.
Ya won't regret the visit.....
I hope you have a wonderful trip.
Stay cool.
