Mother Fucker. You goddamn bastard, this shit sucks bad enough as it is. If your punk ass decides to break out some nuclear shit, then it’s on mother fucker. You gonna get what you give times 1000. Aint no hole deep enough to hide from the fire that will rain upon you and your supporters.
And if you do this, you will kill innocent people on both sides. There aint no such thing as surgical Nukes. They blow up big, and anyone in the area is gonna die. This world has made it almost 60 years without using nukes in combat. Now you’re gonna try to drag us down into it? Don’t go that road you evil son of a bitch. Or else we’re gonna have to send robots in to drill that oil out of the nuclear wasteland that the countries involved will become.
I hate this. I don’t like the idea of Nuclear materials getting dumped on US and then us having to Nuke those bastards. I don’t want this. Regardless, I fear it may happen. But rest assured, if this shit goes nuclear, you and your collective geese are cooked. You cock-chugging-ass-faced-freak-humping-maniacal-bitch-boy-jerk-off. Fuck you.
I did hear about this on the radio this morning, as well as bin Laden’s capacity to launch these things bein gpretty much non-existant. But then I thought, what the hell was the point of buying it? Stoking his fuckin ego? Writing ‘we hate you Yanks’ on the side of the nuke? :?
I presume that he’s going to TRY to obtain the equipment in order to launch the damn thing. I don’t think anyone in the (non-Afghan) world is foolish enough to try and ship anything remotely resembling missiles into the afghan area ATM.
In other news, the Taliban executed a former muhajdeen(?) officer who was on a peace mission from the exiled Afghan King today. I love these people. They obviously understand compromise very well.
Messy, but not disasterous. Maybe several hundreds of new cancer cases over the next decade, but overall, nothing we couldn’t absorb, and it would do his cause even more harm than 9-11 did.
I wouldn’t assume that they couldn’t make a nuclear bomb if they had enough fissionable material. From what I’ve read, it’s not really all that difficult. The problem, as has been pointed out, is the delivery system. They may be able to build a small nuke, but there is no way they have the capability to build a long-range guided missile to carry the thing.
On preview:
Well, if they could pull that off (a big if), probably a lot of people would get sick.
Hmmm, let’s see… delivery system? How about a plane? A boat? A van? These delivery systems have all been used by ObL in the past.
As for capability to deliver a weapon, I read in BBC online today that they are looking at two Pakistani scientists who helped developed Pakistan’s nuclear program as having ties to Bin Laden. And if current insurrectionist in Pakistan ever gained control, they would have an arsenal plus delivery systems.
My comments are purely speculative, but perhaps not far from the mark.
I was all primed for a fun, debaucherous Halloween weekend. Now I’ll just sit around shittin’ my pants.
I don’t know why we all are presuming Bin Laden is stupid. If he says he can build a bomb, I bet he can, and like Dalovin’ said, I’m sure he could also just poison all of our water with radioactive eels or something.
Sorry, jarbabyj. I was trying to vent my rage, not inspire fear in others. I fully intend on getting into some serious trouble this weekend. I’m going to a party tonight, tomorrow, AND on Sunday. I’m Dj’ing one for about 12 hours. Don’t let this stuff slow your fun down, or they win the only battle they have a chance of winning. Just party like you would if none of this was going on, and keep on tryin’ for them orgasms, cause that’s what’s important.
Jarbaby, don’t sweat it.
A. OBL must know that a nuke attack would destroy any credibility he has in the Muslim world.
B.It’s NOT going to happen.
C. Even if it did, you’d feel nothing because you’d be vaporized in an instant.
D. I, for one, would much rather die instantly in a nuke attack than live forever and be old and feeble, like Tithonous.
So enjoy as much as you can while you are safe and breathing. I’ve always considered every moment of life a gift. Since all this crazy shit, I feel so even more strongly. When the sky falls, if it’s gonna fall, we may as well have partied and laughed and socialized and fucked our brains out every chance we got. It’s our duty as Americans. I laugh in the face of white hot death, cause I’ve made the most out of every moment so far, and am going to do the same with every other moment I get. Be good. Stay safe. Have some fun this weekend.
Well, yes, but these are all basically short range options. He’s not going to drive a speedboat here from Afghanistan. Or even a small private plane.
He’d have to get the bomb components to North America and then put it in a van or whatever. You think you’d have problems getting a handgun on an international flight these days? Try getting on with a pound of plutonium!
I’m not saying there’s not cause for concern here. But I don’t think it’s terribly likely, in light of our enhanced concern for security these days, that bin Laden would be able to get a nuke into an American city.
I’m much more concerned over the possibility of him using it on Allied ground forces in Afghanistan, or cities in Israel…
Sigh. I hope even bin Laden doesn’t want to live in a world where people vent their anger by blowing up innocent people with thermonuclear devices, but of course I shouldn’t take that for granted.
It may be a trite statement, but it’s a pity there’s enough religion in the world to make people hate each other, but not enough to make us love each other. I wish we could all just get along.
Aegypt
