Al-Qaeda seeks nuclear kit for attacks

[Leafless]

"Al Qaeda is trying to acquire the technology that would enable it to use a nuclear device to attack Western targets including Britain, a senior British official said on Monday.

Eliza Manningham-Buller, head of intelligence agency MI5, said last week young British Muslims were being groomed to become suicide bombers and her agents were tracking some 1,600 suspects, most of whom were British-born and linked to al Qaeda in Pakistan."

Now I will start losing sleep, wonder if it is tied in with this statement which is pretty ominous.

Ahmadinejad: Israel’s destruction near

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-...3327439,00.html

According to the Iranian media Monday, Iranian President Mahoud Ahmadinejad declared that Israel was destined to ‘disappearance and destruction’ at a council meeting with Iranian ministers.

“The western powers created the Zionist regime in order to expand their control of the area. This regime massacres Palestinians everyday, but since this regime is against nature, we will soon witness its disappearance and destruction,” Ahmadinejad said. (AFP)

It seems like we hear this everyday. I don't see the point of the government telling us this unless it's to create some kind of fear complex. What are you and I going to do with this knowledge? Hmmrrph...

The chicken little syndrome is taking over here, if they keep telling me, yet nothing happens, I begin to lose faith in the claims.

What I find strange is that in Britain- " Britain's domestic spy agency said Muslim extremists were plotting at least 30 major terrorist attacks in Britain which could involve chemical and nuclear devices."

But what about Canada and the U.S.

MSM have not indicated or reported of any planned mass terror attacks in Canada or the U.S. like in Britain.

I wonder if there are indeed threats by Muslim extremist in Canada and the U.S. but they are being hushed up by government?

[geoffrey]

Or maybe the government realises that releasing such information just creates fear and doesn't solve a damned thing? I think we've got it right.

Wow, this is real quality stuff.

The Foreign Office official, asked whether there was any doubt that Al Qaeda wants to gather nuclear material for use against Western targets, said: "No doubt at all."

Yeah? Well, I want a pony. Doesn't mean I'm gonna get one. IOW, there's a few steps in between having nuclear "aspirations" and actually acquiring nuclear weapons (which are extremely difficult to obtain or build).

It seems like we hear this everyday. I don't see the point of the government telling us this unless it's to create some kind of fear complex. What are you and I going to do with this knowledge? Hmmrrph...

It's simple: these doomsayers are simply trying to justify their budgets.

This is news? Wait a few years. The head of the insurgency was celebrating that the dems gained seats. Wait till Hilary is president. We'll see how the world starts to unfold then...

Here's a question for you, Leafy: If there are oodles of terrorists so intent on causing our destruction and willing to go to absurd lengths (such as aqcuring a nuclear device) to do it, where the hell are they?

In the 5 years since 9-11, and despite the billions spent on counter terrorism efforts, the government has turned up virtually nothing to justify the fears of an omnipresent terrorist threat. Despite years of dire warnings about the readiness, will and capabilities of the terrorists, they've been strangely quiet. Why do you think that is? What are they waiting for?

Or, could it be that the terrorist threat has been grossly inflated and that you and your ilk are pissing your pants over nothing?

oh - u mean besides: london tube bombings, london air plot foiled, madrid bombings, firebombings of the danish embassy over cartoons, Bali bombings, Toronto terror plot, contant paris rioting, chechnya school murders, and general muslim exertion of control in europe?

i guess nothing.

Mmhmm. And what do domestic terror attacks (London, Madrid, Bali), alleged "plots" (London, T.O.) the kind we've seen before and tend to collapse under examination (as thes etwo almost inevitably will), domestic unrest linked to a small, poverty stricken minority (Paris), a nationalist war (Chechnya) and a myth (Muslim "control" over Europe) have to do with the threat posed by foreign terrorists? The answer, to anyone not a conspiracy nut who soils their trou at he sight of a swarthy man with a beard, is nothing.

"Where the hell are they"

Who knows and that's what the problem is.

These cowards are like chameleons and blend in with regular civilian populations.

I don't think the terrorist threat has been grossly inflated and most people 'don't piss their pants over it', but is something these terrorist love making a hapless victim do prior to severing the head off of one.

Hmm...so you're tellling me that, in spite of the enormous amount of attention given to terrorism post 9-11, the thousands of arrests and detentions, that the "terrorists" are just, like, hiding out?

Uh. Huh.

As for your bullshit website, I'll take it seriously when it figues out the difference between "terrorists who are Muslim" and "Mulsim terrorists."

They are Muslim extremist violence. And represent the globalization of the Muslim extremist violent agenda.

The majority of those attacks are in Iraq. So I would rule those out as genuine terrorist attacks, knowing we are still in a 'war' over there. Also with the current Big Brother mentality in place from the people in power, you would find out that they know and hear alot of what is going on out there. MORE ATTACKS COMMING !!! Don't worry, MI5 et al are here to help you.

How?

I see you have the same problem as the folks at "Religion of Peace": that is, differentiating between "Muslim terrorism" and "terrorism by Muslims". the tube bombing are an example of the former, the Chechyan school attack the latter.
