At this point who can say ? However I'm trying to avoid implying They have "nukes" mostly because to many people take that as radical. Making the best of a bad situation I cut it back to just "dirty" McVay type bombs. This much I'm sure they can do. They don't need actual "nukes" to cripple major ports. A container with the sort of type Bomb like McVay made but wrapped with some of the more common radio active material that is easy to get would at the least shut down the port for a month or two. There is over 100 types of radio active material I expect they can get without a lot of trouble. This is what most pundits & people don't seem to understand. ------------ I got called out to help sail a large barge today, and had the chance to visit with some Harbor Pilots as well as the port engineer While we don't get a lot of containers in our small port ( Freeport ) They were if full agreement with me about cargo containers will eventually arrive with bombs in them if we don't change the way they are inspected. Every one said it's 100% certain but none offered to venture we would change anything before it happened. Jim
