Like bid Laden said, the US media continues to terrorize American citizens. Let's look at the facts: A nuclear device weighs tons, not ounces. Putting one in a suitcase is out of the question. Nuclear devices give out gamma rays that are easily detected by every technologically advanced nation in the World, including the US. Sneaking one any place is out of the question. I don't know how much atom bombs go for on the black market, but my guess is they would be over priced for the average terrorist making pipe bombs out of fertilizer or black powder. Since sneaking one in a suitcase isn't an option, the fantasy terrorist will need to acquire an inter continental ballistic missile. Once again such a missile is rather large, weighs a lot, is difficult and expensive to come by, and would be next to impossible to miss by even the most incompetent intelligence agencies.

Even the most brain damaged journalist should be able to address the sheer lunacy involved in the statements they so happily quote. I'm starting to think gullibility is the latest fashion trend in America and anyone who displays an apparent IQ above 60 is considered very un-cool by the non thinking public.
