Does al Qaeda have nukes?
No. Next.
Excerpt from opinion piece by Jeffrey Nyquist interviewing author Paul Williams on whether al Qaeda has nukes:
I asked Williams if he could prove that al Qaeda has nuclear weapons. “Yes,” he said, “there is undeniable proof that al Qaeda has nuclear weapons.

In December 2001, as U.S. troops combed the tunnels near an al Qaeda base in Kandahar, they discovered uranium-238 in a lead-lined canister. This was reported in every major U.S. newspaper, including The New York Times. In October 2001, an al Qaeda operative was arrested as he attempted to enter Israel through the checkpoint at Ramallah. The operative had a bomb strapped to his back that Mossad first believed was a radiological devise but later discovered, as verified by UPI, that it was a tactical nuke.

Early in 2001, two British agents, as reported by BBC on Nov. 26, 2001, managed to infiltrate an al Qaeda training camp in Afghanistan by posing as recruits from a London mosque. The agents eventually were sent to Herat where they saw nuclear weapons being manufactured. Finally, Dr. Mahmood and Dr. Majid of the A.Q. Khan Research Facility in Pakistan admitted upon interrogation that they provided assistance to al Qaeda in developing nuclear weapons and that at least one weapon was forward deployed from Karachi to the United States. You can check out this story by turning to A. Borchgrave, ‘Al Qaeda Nuclear Agenda Verified,’ Washington Times, Dec. 10, 2001. There are numerous other instances in which proof has been provided but the above accounts should suffice to dispel all doubt.”
Guys: what do you think would happen if al Qaeda nuked properly (not dirty nuke but hiroshima style) any of: New York, LA, Sydney, Melbourne, Washington, London, Berlin, Amsterdam etc in a co-ordinated attack?

Would we declare war on Islam?

Would we nuke Mecca to disprove the caliphate can ever exist?

Would we take it and submit to the Caliphate or the reduced living standards?

Would we have civil war in our own countries of left vs right if the government did nuke Saudi/Pakistan etc?

Apologies for the previous wrong post
