>>> It's not easy for a country to get a nuke, let alone a bunch of terrorists.

Easy? Maybe not. But AQ Kahn showed us that with enough money anything can happen.

You give any terrorist group access to Iraq's oilfields (this is what Obama's game plan is), and they may have a nuke in short order.

Certainly, given the fact that we have no idea what the status of Russia's nuclear arsenal is, it would be incompetent to assume that it cannot be done.

Apparently, our government totally disagrees with Z on this -- the government has invested millions in equipment to scan containers at our ports multiple times and to physically inspect hundreds of thousands (after the scanner detected a "hit").

While they've yet to find one, that hasn't stopped them from trying.
