IMO- if/when AQ strikes the US with nukes- war will break out between the US and Russia+ China.

We will enter into a global nuclear world war at that point.

Here is yet another post from Sean regarding delivery of nukes into our cities:

Quote:Which method would a terrorist choose?

I suggest the low altitude airburst since it is emotive pictures of decimated sectors of cities and high numbers of immediate casualties that they want the world to witness.

For sure, fallout from a ground burst could kill many more over the following months and years, but that does not generate the razor-sharp publicity that a terrorist hungers for.

But could a terrorist pull off a low altitude airburst?

The only conceivable way to do this is to carry the weapon over ground zero in a light aircraft.

Getting the aircraft would probably be quite easy as would be the loading of the device.

Flying the aircraft over the city is more difficult, but once again the nefarious deed could be executed before the military were alerted, scrambled a fighter jet, and engaged the enemy.

The likelihood of a USAF fighter catching such a plane is also diminished if a lower-priority city is chosen.

In that respect, I will assume a low-altitude airburst. If they can kidnap and fly three out of four Boeing jets into their intended targets in one day, they can do this as well.



Crop Dusters have been high on the acquisition priority list of Al Qaeda for quite some time.

Al Qaeda, Anthrax and Ayman

The group claiming responsibility for the Madrid bombings said that Operation "Winds of Black Death", involving a planned attack on the United States, was 90% complete. Attorney General Ashcroft has described the statement as coming from an Al Qaeda spokesman.

"Dad," he whispered. His Dad could barely hear him. "'I've been arrested, I'm being taken, I don't know where or why." Moazzam Begg was in the trunk of a car being taken away from his apartment in Islamabad. He had been picked up by Pakistan and US agents. The Britoner had come to Pakistan with his wife and children after the US strikes began in Afghanistan. It was February 2002. Months later, he would confess to being involved with an Al Qaeda plot to disperse weaponized anthrax using a remote-controlled airplane. His name had been found on a money transfer in the one-room chemical bunker of Egyptian scientist Midhat Mursi (aka Abu Khabab) at a camp in Afghanistan. . . . .

For those of you who have loved one's in denial about suitcase, backpack, mini (or whatever else you want to call them nukes), do not forget Congressman Weldon's words:

""I can tell you unequivocally we built these devices similar to this and so did the Soviets during the Cold War," said Rep. Curt Weldon, R-Pa. "The defense minister of Russia told me to my face, 'Yes, congressman, we built these devices. Just as your country built them during the Cold War.'"LINK

Then, bookmark THIS site and when you have the time, watch the videos and read the information. Refer those who doubt you to this site.
