| #5 Dirty nukes, container ships. Fifty-fifty probability in next one-two years I'd guess. |

| #4 A statement that the jihadis definitely have a suitcase nuke is provocative enough that it requires proof If these bozos have managed to get their hands on a small or not so small nuclear weapon and use it the American people (95% anyway) will demand the gloves come all the way off. Then we will go after the real root source of all of this crap and a bunch of sand will get turned into glass |

| #3 I think that until Europe pulls it's head out of it's collective arse (UK not included) the Western world cannot "turn the corner" on winning the war on terror. Dread...I can believe that the intelligence agencies are full of YES men afraid to rock the boat. Ever since Vietnam when the CIA was given a black eye overall, they've (station managers) have become more timid and solely career progression minded. Check out Bob Baer's book. "See No Evil" At least that's what I think the title was. I could see the same things happening at the exact same time in the ranks of the Army. |

| #2 Hmmm..I'm skeptical. Pretty "Henny Penny" if you ask me. He makes many good points, but the fact that he says many things that are true, does not make everything he says true. So much overacting in this, that I'm having trouble hearing what he has to say. |

| #1 Interesting interview, but I have some serious reservations about some of Mr. Bodansky's notions. 1. If his statement about the U.S. intelligence community being a closed-minded echo chamber is true, than pulling all of the intelligence assets in this country into one organizational structure seems to be the absolute worst thing you could do. 2. A statement that the jihadis definitely have a suitcase nuke is provocative enough that it requires proof. |
