Terrorists including al-Qaeda pose a serious threat to world security as they attempt to obtain atomic weapons material, Hillary Clinton, the US Secretary of State, declared on the eve of a global summit in Washington to prevent a nuclear terror attack.
President Obama will call on the leaders of 47 nations today — the biggest gathering of heads of state by a US leader since the founding of the UN in 1945 — to introduce tougher safeguards to prevent nuclear material ending up in the hands of terrorists. As far back as 1998, Osama bin Laden stated that it was his Islamic duty to acquire and use weapons of mass destruction.
During the two-day Nuclear Security Summit, Mr Obama will try to convince representatives, including David Miliband. who is standing in for Gordon Brown, that the dangers of loosely guarded atomic material are so grave that a global agreement is needed to stop al-Qaeda going nuclear.
The summit is part of Mr Obama’s strategy to put nuclear weapons at the top of foreign policy. He signed a treaty with Russia on April 8, restricted the role and development of US nuclear weapons last week, and is trying to reach agreement on new sanctions against Iran. The Iran component of his strategy will be raised during the summit, notably with President Hu of China, who agreed to attend the event after initial doubts.

Hillary remains the dullest knife in the drawer.....
Well gee whiz, Hilary, what makes you think that?
Hillary is irrelevant
She heard they were in the market for nukes, so she promised them $4 billion in foreign aid to use any way they see fit.
I believe she is the drawer.
Guess she’s startin’ to worry about where they’re gonna put their bomb. Well, at least Bill will be safe.
Heh.....

No worries! Obambi has promised to totally disarm the most Evil Empire in the world, the USA. After we have absolutely no offensive or defensive capabilities, all our enemies will instantly transform into peace-loving peoples and all will be well.
“In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to rebuild his chemical and biological weapons stock, his missile delivery capability, and his nuclear program. He has also given aid, comfort, and sanctuary to terrorists, including al Qaeda members ... It is clear, however, that if left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will continue to increase his capacity to wage biological and chemical warfare, and will keep trying to develop nuclear weapons.”

“[President Bush] rushed to war...refused to let the UN inspectors conduct and complete their mission ... We need to be building alliances instead of isolation around the world”

Obviously, this lady shouldn’t be listened to whatsoever when dealing with matters of terrorism, weapons of mass destruction, or war. She’s a moron.
I just finished the book, man o man.
Our Great Nation will surive.
I do not think you can just walk into Russia and take a nuke with you.
Hey Lady....talk to your boss!
His only concern is being out of the target zone....otherwise, he shares their objective.
