UK: AQ seeking nuke kit
Guess they didn't visit any US government websites.:sarcasm:

Usually I would trust UK sources but due to recent events here in the US, just don't know.
On that thought which is worse another over blown story or that this isreal, if it is propaganda how long till the chicken little syndrome takes over completely? Almost sounds like a episode of "Sleeper Cell"

1. I thought Al Qaeda bought a bunch of nukes from Chechnya?
Or was it several Russian suitcase nukes that went missing several years ago? Tancredo's been feeding us this bullshit for so long, it's really hard to take these threats seriously any more.

To me, it sounds like more excuses to crack down on the Muslim population. Use the ultimate scare card to whip the people into an anti-Muslim fervor!

2. Al Queda used to be part of Georgia until it broke away
Now it it is an independent region of muslims in the fantasphere. ;-)

3. This does not make sense
What is AQ anyway but simply a name given to a large number of independent like-minded actors who have no organizational structure? So, the question is, who wants nuclear technology? Where do they plan to fabricate a weapon? That takes resources beyond the reach of even highly organized Islamist groups such as Hezbollah.

4. Sorry Al Qaeda. The GOP took the nuke info off their site like 2 weeks ago.
