#3 The TV show Jericho had pre-placed nukes detonate in 23 USA cities as part of the initial story.

#4 Well, we do have nuclear bombs hidden all over the United States. In silos. really. But much more than 160. Obama holds the remote control. sleep well.

#5 I could see a dirty bomb or two planted around the US but a really and truly nuke?

I don't think so.

Of course, with all of the recent tales of Qurans found in the Arizona desert and coyotes saying they were paid to smuggle middle easterners into the US, I don't think for a minute that a nuke terrorist attack on the US is not possible.

It is possible.

We need to take the Holder/Obama mittens off and do the right thing for our country and that is do everything possiblet to wring every last drop of intel out of every jihadi we find.

#7 BTW, the trick to making a nuclear fruitcake is to buy one in a tin, then once each day for an entire month sprinkle one tablespoon of dark rum on it then reseal. I prefer Meyer's dark.

If done properly, the fruitcake should not be mushy, but will have an impressively strong muzzle velocity.

Traditionally, a small bowl with whole cloves would be left next to it, to help conceal the alcohol on the breath.

#8 Fred, we need that fruitcake pic in the hopper if you haven't done that already.

#9 If the quran is so precious too them why would they leave them in the desert? Who thinks osama can write in english?

#10 If they exist and are made with Chinese or NKor dies/plans we should make it very very clear to China what will happen if even one blows....

#11 Secondly.... No matter if or Prez is a Muzzie or Commie... this is reason enough to DISARM PAKIWAKILAND of NUKES NOW!
Even if it takes active use of nukes to do so.

#12 The writer, who claims to be Osama Bin Laden, tells the reader the nukes are remotely controlled.

What's the number for the one near the WH. So I will know which number not to call.

#13 Who thinks osama can write in english?

Actually ... he can. A reporter said he was threatened by Osama (in English) in Kandahar during the 90's.

However, it is doubtful this is real: Nukes degrade rapidly over time (and not just due to nuclear breakdown). The explosives and the electronics must work to very fine tolerances, and they tend to lose that over time. A friend of mine who worked in nuclear subs said they had to take the warheads out and rebuild them every couple of years.

#14 I had a special weapons platoon attached to my combat engineer company in the FRG.

Al is absolutely right about maintenance. It was an ongoing headache and a real problem in the 70's finding the time and money to train them and to get V Corps off our butts with testing long enough to do the maintenance. We had readiness testing so often that I thought we were going wear out the trainers.

#15 There is no consensus on how many Tacnukes, e.g. "Suitcase" Nukes, went missing after the fall of the USSR + end of the Cold War.

Ditto for BIOWAR, CHEMWAR WEAPS.

In any case,IMO Al-Qaeda = Radical Islam doesn't, + never did, have to detonate 160 Nucbombs includ "Dirty Nukes" inside CONUS when one, two, or a few would suffice.

The Feds must also consider that so-called ASYMMETRIC WARFARE does not preclude MilTerrs from procuring + exploiting advanced Mil, NucTechs, + dev 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd Strike. etc. "offensive" andor "defensive" capabilities ala the US-SOVIET CONFLICT [Commie Bloc].

WHOM NATION-STATE(S) IS THE US-ALLIES GOING TO GO AFTER IFF OSAMA + BOYZ CLAIM THEY BOUGHT, STOLE, OR DEV THE NUKES, ETC. "FAIR-N-SQUARE"???

#16 IMO whatever kinds of WMDS Radical Islam has hidden in the US won't be detonated = employed for domestic Terrstrikes until after Iran formally declares it is a NUCWEAPS STATE.

COLD WAR MILPOL = NUCLEAR = [post-911] TERROR DIALETECISM = RADICAL ISLAM may desire + support a "SUFFICIENT" = MINIMAL NUMBER OF MUSLIM NATIONS TO GO NUCLEAR AS PER NUCWEAPS [NUkes-WMDS] AS HEDGE AGZ THE US = US-ALLIES. AMong ohter reasons, this is why the "JASMINE" REVOLS is worrisome to the US + why the US-Allies are in no rush to get rid of Uncle Muammar despite risk of Muammr turning agz them.

POPULAR ADAGE?AXIOM > "ONCE A STATE ACQUIRES NUCLEAR WEAPONS IT CAN NO LONGER BE MILITARILY ATTACKED", widout risk of nuclear combat + ultimately Mutual Destruction.

ASYMMETRIC WARFARE > "NUCLEAR MILTERRS" = "ISLAMIST-JIHADIST/MILITANT BOMB" = THIRD-PARTY MILTERRS, CELLS + SMALL GROUPS, CAN ATTACK ENEMY NATIONS WID DESTRUCTIVE NUCWEAPS [Nukes-WMDS] BUT DISPARATE SOVEREIGN MUSLIM NUC STATES = NUC MIL POWERS CANNOT BE.

Which may explain ...

* FREEREPUBLIC > ISLAM WILL NOT BE THE LOSER.

Oh yeah, its "2012" + ultimately OWG CALIPHATE, where the US-WEST is either defeated + suborned under Islam + Caliphate, or else wholly destroyed.

#17 TOPIX > [CNN] FORMER TRUCK DRIVER DECIPHERS TOP SECRETS OF FIRST ATOMIC BOMBS. The real secret of the Atomic Bombs is HOW EASY IT IS TO MAKE THEM.

It took oer ten years of searching + copying + scrutinizing, etc. public photos, diagrams + documents, but he got 'er done short of actually physically making one [Impress the Babes, threaten the IRS at tax time, and all that].

And he is NOT an Engineer or other Tech-Specialist by trade.

Iff one makes the time + effort [diligence], you will get DA BOOM = MUSHROOM.
