from what I have read on the internet and from a housewive’s perspective...
I have to agree with this part of your statement:
“...they might be used as dirty bombs but cannot be used as nukes...”
Smiling at you...
Yep, no bar, but I used to sing along with that song quite heartily — made me smile.
It’s global jihad...just the other day I was reading about explosives up some guy’s buttocks going off...but that’s not new technology really, either.
Then of course there are liquid (chemical bombs)...so, you’re right Doe Eyes, the jihadis (as well as other non-jihadi terrorists) could use other types of explosives.
I posted this article just to ponder on those who hate us and those who have gone the extra mile to protect us.

“Islamists Plotted to Kill Hillary Clinton in Nairobi”
Monday, September 7, 2009 3:47 PM
SNIPPET: “A radical Islamic sect based in Somalia and linked to al-Qaida and based in Somalia plotted to kill US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during her trip to Africa last month, according to The Australian newspaper.
The plot was to be carried out through a planned series of bomb attacks set to take place in Nairobi, the capital of neighboring Kenya, while Clinton was there - one in the hotel where she was staying. The plot was foiled at the last minute, media reports, citing senior security officials, said.
According to yesterday’s reports, al-Shabaab, which is viewed as increasing regional threat in Africa, planned three attacks in Nairobi while the US Secretary of State was there.”
EMP. An airborn nuke doesn’t need kilotonnage to be deadly.
And leaving Sarah Palin untouched.
NO cheers, unfortunately.
Remember what GWB was doing during 9/11? Addressing schoolchildren. Think I’ll be stopping by the gun shop on the way to work.
If it were anyone but the Troll in the White House, we would quietly let the jihadists know that a mass bio-warfare attack on the U.S. would be answered by NUKES.
NO cheers, unfortunately.
Thanks for the ping!

No, I’ll never forget Aloha Ronnie.
We will ALWAYS remember; ALWAYS.
Rosie and I were talking about the old times just the other day...
I miss them! It was a wonderful time!
McCoys grew-up near my hometown (Dayton, OH) and led by the singer/ guitarist Rick Zerringer. He later became Rick Derringer and did lots of studio work with Steely Dan, Edgar Winter, Weird Al among others. An amazing talented player.
In my teens, Simon & Garfunkle played the basement under a large shopping center called "The Caverns". The McCoys were the warm-up act and stayed onstage to be S&G's backing band.
Ditto that my dear FRiend.
“Dubious story at best but not improbable.”
What the heck does THAT mean? Dubious MEANS improbable.
What is your perspective on this?
