A port official has admitted that a 'weapon of mass effect' has been found by 'partner agencies' in the U.S., raising major questions over a possible government cover-up.
The disturbing revelation came in an interview with San Diego's assistant port director screened by a television channel in the city.
The Customs and Border Protection Department tried to dampen speculation over his remarks, but doubts remained over whether he had inadvertently revealed a dirty bomb plot to attack the U.S. mainland.

‘So, specifically, you're looking for the dirty bomb? You're looking for the nuclear device?’ asked Mr Blacher.
‘Correct. Weapons of mass effect,’ said Mr Hallor.
‘You ever found one?’ asked Mr Blacher.
‘Not at this location,’ Mr Hallor said.
‘But they have found them?’ asked Mr Blacher. ‘Yes,’ said Mr Hallor.

Okay, I had to think about that one for a minute, clever ;)
Oh, great. Another pia.
Are you NS back under another screen name?
I doubt it. I think that the administration would like to have this.
Aw come on, “you know we can absorb a terrorist attack”.
Per own very own resident Soetoro.
...I would not call a dirty bomb a weapon of mass destruction....
And I would not call you Brilliant
politics for power is the rule of today, when it comes to the security of this nation this administration’s motto appears to be “so a few million Americans are going to be killed, eff them, I got mine”
You seem to be minimizing the story without having any clue what they found. Why?
Then after we have absorbed the attack, what will the Soetoro administration do next, send an army of lawyers to litigate and punish the negligent parties?

Thanks for the ping.
Thanks!
“I would not call a dirty bomb a weapon of mass destruction.”
How brilliant, Brilliant to change the topic from “A weapon of mass destruction found in the US” to what IS a weapon of mass destruction (in your mind).
I didn’t think you were obnoxious enough to be NS but I’ve changed my mind.
BTTT
I think that the difference between WMD and this type of WME is hair-splitting. depending on what it’s made from, it could be an “area denial” weapon that would make the area unusable or severely devalued for a VERY long time.
It’s unlikely that “the enemy” (that is, you-know-who) has the ability/logistics to get a working fission device here. But as you mention...
It was made pretty clear in Iraq war 1 and in particular 2 that WMD would be responded to in the “severest manner” or words to that effect, which is “diplomat speak” for the Big Bang. So, I hope that this “differentiation” described here is not a weaseling out of this.
A nuclear device of any type needs to be responded to in kind once the source is found, with absolutely overwhelming and final force. If the government of the territory where it originated “didn’t know anything about it”, well, they should have, and survivors, (if any) need to be more watchful in the future (if any).
If this actually happens, the American people are going to demand to see a sheet of lumpy glass somewhere.
Wonderful.
What would you call it?
Would the size of the conventional explosive and the amount of radioactive material and the location of the explosion matter?
Idiot!
A more obvious, and simply answered question is: What is this administration NOT hiding???
