A nuclear attack will likely take place on US soil in the next ten years

During the Cold War there was a fear that USA and USSR (the Soviet Union) would start a nuclear war. However, it does not surprise me that there never was one. Why? M. A. D. stands for Mutual Assured Destruction. It meant that if you would launch your nukes against the enemy, you would doom your country for a counter-attack, and in the end both countries would be a pile of garbage, as seen in the Fallout-game series. Knowing that if you launched your nukes, your country would be nuked in return kept the superpowers from doing something they would have regretted. However, nowadays the situation is a bit different. The propability of an all-out nuclear war has been reduced (however it is not impossible. ) Now there is the threat of a single nuclear detonation in a major city, for example in New York. "Al Queda has no return address. " If for instance Al Queda detonates a nuclear device in New York, what could we do? America can't send their nukes to a certain country because Al Queda doesn't have one. They hide in the caves in the middle of no man's land. We could do nothing. So, the terrorists have no reason NOT to attack America using nukes. Actually, I'm very surpised that America has not been already attacked with nuclear power. I cannot present a mathematically calculated probability of a nuclear attack on the US soil. Neither do prosecutors in courts. They present EVIDENCE to show that the defendant did what he is accused of. They don't have to show the jury mathematical calculations, just evidence to back up their case. This is what I'm doing. In my last post I presented logical evidence that it would be at least possible, or even easy to smuggle "suitcase bombs" or uranium/plutonium to the United States of America. Question: Okay, say someone smuggled plutonium into America unnoticed. How would they build a nuclear bomb? Answer: It would be very easy. There are articles on the internet and even books that give precise instructions on how to build a nuclear bomb or other weapons of mass destruction. One of them is called "How to Build a Nuclear Bomb" by Frank Barnaby. (. http://en.wikipedia.org...) If I wanted to, I could go to www. amazon. com and buy the book for around four dollars ($4). So could any terrorist who has uranium and wants to strike USA hard. Question: Understood. It would be easy to smuggle nuclear material into America and build a nuclear bomb. But wouldn't the police notice something? Answer: Nope. Question: But when how is he going to detonate a nuclear bomb in a major city? Answer: Depends. Either they put the bomb in the truck of their car or rent a truck. It wouldn't be entirely impossible to steal a nuclear bomb from Russia. Bombs from the era of Cold War have relatively bad protection. Al Queda, for example, could send a group of terrorists to steal a warhead from the times of Cold War. After this they would just send the warhead via sea to, for instace, Canada. There they would rent a truck and they would be ready to strike. Or Iran could give them a warhead once they're done with their project. According to experts, Iran will have nukes after a year or two. If Iran would give a warhead to Al Queda, they could do the exact same and Iran would never be caught. Sorry, I got a little carried away. Summary: They could place a small nuclear device on their back seat or trunk, and a larger one on a truck. Either way we're in deep trouble. In addition, there is a possibility of a country detonating a nuke in American soil. North Korea has nukes. Iran will have nukes soon. Russia has nukes. India and Pakistan have nukes. However, the likely scenario is a terrorist attack. In that case there's no reason to be afraid of M. A. D.
