Reliable sources tell EurasiaNet that between 8 and 12 suspects had been contacted by Taliban and al Qaeda representatives, who offered lucurative incentives for the scientists to work on a "nuclear research program" inside Afghanistan.

I wonder if they will check Monsoor Ijaz, Pakistani financier and physics trained American with links to the Pakistan nuclear community. He was a major contributor to the Dem Party, and held various fundraisers for Gore. His objective was to get his nose in the Sudanese tent and play the oil game there.
