Well they are just trying to play on our fears. Their stories aren't even competent. But they do have a lot of people wondering. So far the plane thing and the odd torpedo on SS Cole are all basic stuff. Of course they did not even have to be suicidal to do the WTC plane stunt. They could have flown to 30K, broke a window and with cockpit control pf oxygen, killed the passengers in 2 minutes. Then set the GPS and jumped. All they would need is a crowbar and the chutes. I will grant that they seem to have no shortage of suicide warriors.

Did they buy 1.5 billion worth of weapons and get some Pakistani scientists to assist them to retrigger them with timers? hmmmmmm I don't doubt that they would love to try it. But would the Russians, with all their Chechyen problems, no matter how greedy, have been dumb enough to do it? I have strong doubts about that. And how easy is it to smuggle atomic warheads into the US? Not that all fired easy. Needs somebody at the waterfront to help, and some business people to conceal the crates. They are around I will warrant. No way they took them apart, and no way if they did get them in here that they did it without some advanced engineering help from some loyal, probably Pakistani technicians. If Pakistan were missing some weapons, they should know about it. They don't have that many. No doubt someone is taking inventory now. It pays to doublecheck nightmares just to see if you are really asleep when you have them. There are people in the Pakistan military that are Islamic crazies. Could they conceal a missing warhead? Have to have a convincing dummy in place. Or steal the core itself and leave a convincing facsimile in place too. hmmmmmm... not easy to do.

But ...
