According to the BBC, the Taliban regime helped al-Qaeda construct the device, which has not been recovered, by providing medical isotopes.

Now we know why the fears were generated.

Taliban? How 'bout Pakistanis? Or even Iranians? Herat is in the West.

In November the British Government issued - and then hurriedly withdrew - a statement warning that al-Qaeda might be prepared to use a "dirty bomb", or some kind of poison gas. It was replaced with a more general warning of terrorist threats.

Hmmm.
