You are absolutely right. In the OP there is also the question why so many people worry about the reach of Iranian nukes while a detonation of a foreign nuke between the US borders should be on top of the list of their worries.

For example...today,as a matter of fact Februari 5th 1958 the US airforce lost a nuke somewhere at the coast of Georgia....the nuke was never recovered. You can bet it is still between the US borders after all these years.....and also bet someone has it. Foreign or domestic powers....

Here is what is scary, think of all the illegal drugs that make it into the US on a daily basis. If we cant stop that, how will we stop a nuke from making it into the country? I always wondered how many the Soviets must have smuggled in during the cold war, that are probably still here. Scary.

Precisely...so why do people fear so much the missile nuke attack all the way from Iran, N.Korea or Russia for that matter. There is the technology to intercept most if not all misiles before they reach the US continent.

You probaly watched the movie The Fourth Protocol? If you haven't.... it deals with a russian agent (007 Pierce Brosnan) who has the order to detonate a nuke on UK soil.

I really think that the possibillity of an already present foreign nuke on US soil should be considered the most realistic threat for the USA. And I think that the DoD is very aware of this and will try to keep such a doom boom senario as much as possible out of the public domain.

I currently live almost on top of the US/Canada border on the east coast, and have for 20+ years. In my opinion I can't see how the US border is any more secure now than it was 15 years ago (with the exception of needing a passport to cross from time to time...). From my perspective it would be easy for a "sleeper cell" to bring whatever they need through customs, especily if they have built a friendly relationship with the slack officers that "work" for american customs.
I personally used to drive over to work 6 hours south of here (into the states, Im a canadian citicen) for months at a time, bringing a truck piled high with tools and building equipment, would stop and chat with the officer for five minutes or so, never get checked for a passport or any ID of any sort or even asked where i was going. So, really it would be easy to bring whatever they want into the states, IMO.


There are now many radiation sensors in border crossings. If you know what to look for you may occasionally see them

It's not like how it used to be.
