This could lead to what intelligence officials call a "nuclear 9/11." If a dirty bomb were to be used in a populated area, thousands could die, mainly from radiation poisoning, as opposed to the devastation of a normal nuclear weapon.
Even worse, al-Qaeda could well be on its way to weapons worse than a dirty bomb. According to a leaked report, al-Qaeda terrorists "have the technical competence to manufacture an explosive device beyond a mere dirty bomb."
This could mean a nuclear weapon could already be in development.

The Vancouver Sun continues:
Security briefings suggest that jihadi groups are also close to producing "workable and efficient" biological and chemical weapons that could kill thousands if unleashed in attacks on the West.
Thousands of classified American cables obtained by the WikiLeaks website and passed to The Daily Telegraph detail the international struggle to stop the spread of weapons-grade nuclear, chemical and biological material around the globe.
At a Nato meeting in January 2009, security chiefs briefed member states that al-Qaeda was plotting a program of "dirty radioactive IEDs", makeshift nuclear roadside bombs that could be used against British troops in Afghanistan.
As well as causing a large explosion, a "dirty bomb" attack would contaminate the area for many years.

Anybody ever read the book by Tom Clancy, "Executive Orders"? He describes a biological attact by Iranian terrorists against the USA which utlimately is unsuccessful, although it brings the economy to a complete halt with many deaths, but not the full blown mega deaths expected, simply due to incompetence.
ReplyDeleteIn another of his books, he also brings to life an attack on American soil by a "dirty" bomb, again a fizzle due to incompetence of the terrorists.
Mr. Clancy was ahead of his time.
Wake up, America, before it's too late.
Get this closet muslim pretender out of the Oval Office and get a real American in there.
