Federal law enforcement officials are investigating to determine whether sleeper cells or freelance agents of Saudi terrorist mastermind Osama bin Laden may have smuggled small, portable nuclear weapons or radiological bombs into the United States.

The deepest concern centers on the chance that bin Laden has acquired and will use a finished nuclear weapon. Rep. Chris Shays, R-Conn., chairman of the House subcommittee on national security, told United Press International: "It's possible, and it's very scary."

I'm really not interested in the bad case of linkitris you've developed; and seems you've also developed a case of "hey, notice me, see the posts I've done". To reoterate, I've said what I had to say. Just follow your leader, and you'll be given a pat on the head. ;-)

I got bored with the Cohen thing... sorry. There's not much else for me to say about it, other than its obvious I won't be the one solving the 'red mercury' mystery, so why waste my time. You and others gave me the information I needed to suit my purposes. Thanks.

Get off it, Nita. You're playing a silly game, and I'll not be part of it. There are several here who had a hand in discussing (at least to the extent of posting articles), so let them come forward if they want to discuss. I haven't been shy in the past, and won't be now either. If you're wanting me to taunt OKCSubmariner, forget it; I said what I had to say to him, and that is the end of it, so long as we understand it is an opinion. You're not much of an instigator, since you're waaay too transparent;l you might want to practice that before you work on your "project"..

"Get off it, Nita."

That's all you needed to say, and I knew you couldn't do it, you wuss. :)

"I just knew..........".

Brilliant try, brilliant comment, etc. Like I tol' you, I said what I had to say to the one intended, and you're not gonna drag me into something you'd probably like to do yourself; instead you just sorta go along with the crowd. Who's the "wuss", wuss? Something else you'd like me to say for you? LOL

You, too, just keep on doing your good work, and wait around for your pat on the head. That is, if you're still a "believet".

Like I tol' you, I said what I had to say to the one intended, ...

Then stop saying things to me.  It's really quite simple.  Really.  To avoid triangulating, you only address the problem with the person with whom you're having the problem.  Not me.  Not others. Not anyone that you're not having the problem with. Get it?

 

...and you're not gonna drag me into something you'd probably like to do yourself; 

I'm not a mind-reader and don't have a clue what you're trying to say here.  But I'll respond to your insinuation as soon as you say it bluntly and very directly so I don't have to play mind games and waste my time.  

 

...instead you just sorta go along with the crowd. 

Right.  I do that a lot around here, don't I?   Nita is a great example of someone who never speaks her mind and forms her opinions around others. Great analysis, chickpea.   

 

Who's the "wuss", wuss? Something else you'd like me to say for you? LOL

Great comeback.

 

You, too, just keep on doing your good work, and wait around for your pat on the head. That is, if you're still a "believet".

What the heck are you talking about?  A "believer" in what?  Red mercury?  Treason ala Bush?  Santa Claus?

Never mind.  I don't really want to know what you're trying to say. I'm bored with dealing with someone who keeps acting like a pesky pissant at a Willie Nelson picnic.

Thanks for the ping. I'm going out on a limb on this one, and I am going to take the wishful-thinking view: I have to assume that GWB is going to try and use more U.S. personnel (that is consistent with using Halliburton, which has long been CIA-Black-Projects-associated, BTW)than Russian personnel. This would be so as to actually exercise some real oversight (resistant to the Russian Mafia, etc), unlike the pompous pretenses of the Clintigula administration. Implicitly, One of the high priorities of any such effort to reduce nukes would be aggressively nail-down the satchel nuke problem.
