Arab paper theorizes Al-Qaeda may have nukes.

Yahoo news.

Read the link a little and it will explain it some. Anyone know any more about this? There's no confirmed proof, so it's just questionable. Hopefully, I would think, that our government would have the run down on this, but it is fairly worrisome. I tried searching for other sites about this, but came up with nothing really.

This has been conjectured and spoken of here at ATS for sometime, though not in detail.
Here are some threads that may or may nor be relative to what you are looking for?

"Possibility of Osama having nukes is going mainstream"
www.abovetopsecret.com...


This thread has some links to numerous articles mentioning Al Qaeda having possible nukes/suitcase nukes:

"TERRORISM: Al Qaeda: We will destroy New York within 35 days"
www.abovetopsecret.com...


As do these:

"What if Iraq were Nuked?"
www.abovetopsecret.com...

"Russian Mafia, terrorists, nukes?"
www.abovetopsecret.com...


The above threads have and are discussing such conjecture(s) as Al-Qaeda having potential suitcase nukes to nukes to possible radioactive materials. Well worth looking at them.

Just ran across this:

"The Terrorist Nuclear Bomb Threat"
nuclearweaponarchive.org...

Excerpt:

"This question leads to a set of interrelated topics. In the pages below I have collected a series of essays that treat different aspects of this question: the feasibility of terrorists building or acquiring nuclear devices; the claim that ex-Soviet suitcase nuclear bombs represent a real threat; the feasibility of suitcase nuclear bombs; and what is known about Osama bn Laden's efforts to acquire nuclear weapons.

Can Terrorist Acquire Nuclear Weapons?
Alexander Lebed and Suitcase Nukes
Are Suitcase Bombs Possible?
Could al-Qaeda go Nuclear?"
(All four above are linked to separate articles)


Very interesting read.

Thanks Seekerof; I have know of one of the links though.

Who would know better about this than their own brothers?

What do you mean? I'm woundering where they got there sources, or information from; dosn't really say much.
