True, but there are degrees. Killing thousands is different than scaring people and maybe killing dozens or hundreds.

We should have nuked mecca, medina and all arab (moslem) capitals right after 911.

I have to agree. The good news is, I’m starting to feel a little jaded. The bad news is, I’m starting to feel a little jaded.

Not that I wish for this to happen, because I don’t but I think it might take something like this to wake America up.

OTOH, probably half of the country, and we know which half this describes, would rush up to the nearest Muslim, surrender and ask to be fitted for a Burka post haste.

The problem with 0bama is that he thinks his religion gives him street cred with other Musllms.

He fails to acknowledge that the biggest killer of other Muslims.....is other Muslims.

Maybe you and Hilary need to check what you actually spelled out on the Iranian “reset” button, too.

Anyway, any such device that has been buried for many years would likely be in no condition to be used, though the nuclear materials inside could certainly be reused by terrorists.

My concern was more of a proof-of-concept sort; if the Soviets can do it, so can Islamic terrorists- even lacking the facility of a diplomatic infrastructure to operate out of.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Russian Federation had some special operations assets in CONUS. Probably not a whole lot. Most of that sort of thing probably gets done in the US by whatever the GRU is calling itself these days. It’s more up their alley.

I remember that discarded equipment with Cyrillic markings used to turn up in Alaska from time to time, way back when. The putative target -if things had gone hot- would’ve likely been the Alaska Pipeline.

Manpads, so called suitcase nuclear bombs are quite real but they give a nominal yield of only about .2 KT.

Last time I checked, MANPADS was MAn Portable Air Defense; Stingers and SA-7s and the like. You're thinking of SADMs, perhaps?

Even

IF

one knew of such organizations at my layman level . . .

MOST such organizations, groups, ad-hoc teams

would remain UNKNOWN by design.

WILL ISRAEL STRIKE BY AUGUST................(Joel Rosenberg)

Washington, D.C., April 15, 2010) — Russia has just announced that it intends to allow the Iranian nuclear reactor facility located in Bushehr (near the Persian Gulf) to go live in August. This is an ominous development.

Now Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has a fateful decision to make. Will he order a preemptive military strike against all of Iran’s nuclear sites before August when the Bushehr site becomes “hot”? His mentor, Menachem Begin, ordered an Israeli air strike against Saddam Hussein’s Osirik nuclear reactor in Iraq before it went hot in 1981. Netanyahu wants the world to act with decisive unity to stop Iran from getting the Bomb. But that is increasingly unlikely. The Obama administration is no longer calling for “crippling sanctions,” and even if they were, it appears to be too late for sanctions to be effective. U.S. officials — including Defense Secretary Robert Gates — says Iran could have the Bomb by next year. German intelligence thinks it could be sooner.

WE MUST PREPARE FOR PEACE. BUT PREPARE FOR WAR Here’s how:

* We need to preach the gospel to all the people of the epicenter, including our enemies. On Tuesday and Wednesday, I had the remarkable opportunity to go on live satellite TV into Iran and share the gospel, teach on Bible prophecy, and explain God’s love for Iran and Israel and all the people of the world. Millions saw the program. We answered live calls from Iran, Europe, the U.S. and even China......

more on....http://flashtrafficblog.wordpress.com/

Some believe Obama will stall it all until October, just before the election, so that the people will stand behind him. Thus their vote...Countries do tend to stand with their Pres. when war is declared....Ithink it’s possible could play out like this.

SADMs? Probably. I'm dead tired these days. Slightly brain dead. Wife still in the middle of radiation therapy and very unhappy. If she is unhappy we all are.
