The equivocation brigade is back in business it looks like. Well, I hope you feel noble defending the indefensible.
"Not an attack on random people like Muslims did in Brussels ..."
Were the terrorist attacks on Iraq and Afghanistan done by Christians in the White House?
Russians and Chinese are rational and responsible. Not so much Muslims. Just look at the population growth.
You are OK with group of people getting murdered by are upset when another group gets supposedly murdered.The equivocation brigade is back in business it looks like. Well, I hope you feel noble defending the indefensible.
We SHOULD spend those billions, I think that is my point. Why are we spending so much on our arsenal and only a fraction of that in preventing those materials getting in the hands of whack jobs? Read the article. They basically flat out state that we are going to get hit. The hit that we take will be on a scale exponentially higher than 911. Over 600 documented incidents of nuclear arms smuggling.... in what world does this not blow up in our face?
You are OK with group of people getting murdered by are upset when another group gets supposedly murdered.
That shows that you value certain human lives more than others.
And you only care when white people get killed?Of course. The same occurs in all people across the world. Muslims only care about Muslim lives. Chinese care about Chinese lives. Etc.
Of course. And the gullible, blind sheep will gladly accept whatever the corporate owned media will tell them.Sounds like a bunch of bullshit scare tactics by the government bureaucracy to justify the inflated security budget and continuation of police state, and to rally the public to dear leaders by giving it some foreigners to hate. Radioactive cesium my ass.
And you only care when white people get killed?
Yeah man. Your tribalism is alive and well. It actually never went away, sadly.
Of course. And the gullible, blind sheep will gladly accept whatever the corporate owned media will tell them.
"Keep spreading the lie enough times and it will become the truth" - Joseph Goebbels
Such as Islam has nothing to do with terrorism? That is definitely one line of the corporate media.
I'm curious: How come whenever an attack happens, the media very quickly puts up images of guys with Muslim names.
Where is the investigation? Why the jump to conclusions? Shouldn't there be some momentary pause to look into the matter before putting up the guys name? Usually, this info is released very quickly after the supposed attacks.
Also, how does this media get this information so fast on these guys? And why does it spread like wildfire among all the major media outlets? Are they all working together?
LMAO @ blackoutQuite the opposite. Whenever an attack happens there's usually a blackout. They will jump to conclusions with others, but not Muslims. Effectively, there is a higher burden of proof before the media broadcastst who does the attack.
LMAO @ blackout
What proof is there?
For example, this last supposed attack in Berlin, the recent refugee, who by the way just happened to be an expert truck driver, conveniently left his ID behind. LOL
Then, he crossed TWO borders of TWO countries to only be caught in Italy by the heroic police officers. I thought he left his ID behind? How could he cross the borders of two countries like that?
That seems more like something out of a movie than real life.
But yes, the media did paint a scary picture of the guy -
recently emigrated Muslim refugee truckjacker murderer of Christmas shoppers.
I thought he left his ID behind? How could he cross the borders of two countries like that?
LOL - you guys. Guess the media and the fear mongerers have truly brainwashed you.
Your government loves people like you.
The ability of a terrorist organisation to make and deliver an actual nuclear bomb is just a non starter. Look how difficult nation states find it!
You are right. One doesn't need ID to travel between countries in the EU. My mistake.Get a train ticket from the kiosk and hop aboard?
This isn't a media conspiracy against al-Qaeda. They actually do want the US out of the Middle East and they want to effect that change by force. The fact that you think it's some conspiracy against Zawahiri n' Co. by me and the US Gov is just evidence that you're a nut. Do you believe in 911 truther stuff too?
If you think they are right, and that the US deserves to be driven out of the ME by al-Qaeda... then why don't you join them? Book a flight to Aden and go kick it with al-Shabbab or maybe Egypt with Ansar al-Sharia... or maybe Syria with Jahbat Fatah al-Sham. Al Qaeda has many affiliates that all would love help from an american like you.
How do you know for sure this isn't a conspiracy against anyone? How can one be so sure other than trusting the mainstream media? Do you have that much faith in your corporate controlled media?This isn't a media conspiracy against al-Qaeda.

This is not accurate, at least not for an implosion-type device (which is what would be used in a suitcase bomb). If it was as easy as you say it would've been done a hundred times over by now by various physics students all around the world. Fact is, you don't know wtf you're talking about. But you keep talking....1) The issue with making a bomb is manufacturing enough material for a core. Once you have that a couple of halfway decent physics students can get it go off. That's the easy part. Nation states find it difficult to enrich or manufacture the uranium or plutonium, none would have the slightest problem making a bomb out of it if they got enough.
Reference needed? The only stocks I've heard of going missing were a few kgs of HEU from stocks in kasakhstan... and most of that was later recovered.2) There's a buttload of unaccounted-for plutonium and uranium out there. Get 10 pounds of fissile material out the back door of a poorly guarded bunker in East Buttfuckistan guarded by a soldier who gets pain in goats kidneys and you're in business.
3) Russia made a lot of man-portable suitcase nukes. The terrorist organization only needs to buy/steal one to turn NYC or DC into a smoking crater.
Quick! The uneducated, evil cave dwellers with Toyotas are going to kill us with nukes they stole from a heavily protected site!1!11!11
A Nuclear Site Is Breached
Shortly after midnight on Nov. 8, four armed men broke into the Pelindaba nuclear facility 18 miles west of Pretoria, a site where hundreds of kilograms of weapons-grade uranium are stored. According to the South African Nuclear Energy Corp., the state-owned entity that runs the Pelindaba facility, these four "technically sophisticated criminals" deactivated several layers of security, including a 10,000-volt electrical fence, suggesting insider knowledge of the system. Though their images were captured on closed-circuit television, they were not detected by security officers because nobody was monitoring the cameras at the time.
So, undetected, the four men spent 45 minutes inside one of South Africa's most heavily guarded "national key points" -- defined by the government as "any place or area that is so important that its loss, damage, disruption or immobilization may prejudice the Republic."
Eventually, the attackers broke into the emergency control center in the middle of the facility, stole a computer (which was ultimately left behind) and breached an electronically sealed control room. After a brief struggle, they shot Anton Gerber, an off-duty emergency services officer. Gerber later explained that he was hanging around because he believed (reasonably, in retrospect) that his fiancée -- a site supervisor -- was not safe at work. Although badly injured, Gerber triggered the alarm, setting off sirens and lights and alerting police stationed a few miles away.
Nevertheless, the four escaped, leaving the facility the same way they broke in.
Amazingly, at the same time those four men entered Pelindaba from its eastern perimeter, a separate group of intruders failed in an attempt to break in from the west. The timing suggests a coordinated attack against a facility that contains an estimated 25 bombs' worth of weapons-grade nuclear material. On Nov. 16, local police arrested three suspects, ranging in age from 17 to 28, in connection with this incident.
A break-in at a South African nuclear complex alarms Washington and strains relations years later
A break-in at Pelindaba by two armed groups more than seven years ago convinced senior U.S. officials and some independent security experts that the vault holding the fuel lacks adequate counter-terror protections. As a result, Washington has been waging a quiet, but unsuccessful, diplomatic campaign to convince South Africa to relinquish the vault’s HEU.
