Officials verify dirty bomb probe results

The document indicated that Cummings had quantities of hydrogen peroxide, uranium, thorium, lithium metal, thermite, aluminum powder, beryllium, boron, black iron oxide and magnesium ribbon. Cummings also reportedly had literature on how to build dirty bombs and information about cesium-137, strontium-90 and cobalt-60, additional radioactive materials, although he did not actually have those materials.

Great Post! I haven't seen this covered anywhere else.

A few points:

1 - It's really easy to build a 'dirty bomb' from a number of sources held with low security -- medical radiological materials, medical waste, toxic waste, Home Depot aisle 8 and 17, etc.

2- The terrorists are already hear among us, and the cops can't be everywhere. Only an armed and aware citizenry could stop something past a certain point. And that's exactly what Obongo wants to end, an armed and aware citizenry.

Scary stuff.
As for terrorists on our soil, I remember how half the state of Massacheusetts got suckered into supporting the marxist PIRA terrorists back in the late "troubles" in Northern Ireland.
