Chilling Threat Of ADirty Bomb

y Michael Richardson

As British investigators follow the murky trail linking the recent death of former Russian spy, Alexander Litvinenko to the deadly poison polonium-210, renewed international scrutiny is being focused on the black market trade in radioactive materials.


Do not worry about nukes, dirty bombs would be easier and cheaper to produce.

If you really want something to worry about--here's your chance.

And they don't need to be radioactive either. A good-sized container mounted, say, on a tall building on a windy day would do the trick.

I am sometimes amazed these things don't happen all the time. Open borders, a borderline useless DHS, millions of illegal aliens and a LOT of people with seriously bad attitudes would seem like a gilt-edged invitation to terrorists.

Naturally, I'm rather pleased this DOESN'T happen, but it does make you wonder.

I agree about the probs controlling this stuff and I think it will only be a matter of time before someone succeeds.
