Driven by profit, hatred of U.S., ex-Soviet nuclear smugglers seek Islamist clients
Over the pulsating beat at an exclusive nightclub, the arms smuggler made his pitch to a client: €2.5 million for enough radioactive cesium to contaminate several city blocks.
It was earlier this year, and the two men were plotting their deal at an unlikely spot: the terrace of Cocos Prive, a dance club and sushi bar in Chisinau, the capital of Moldova.
“You can make a dirty bomb, which would be perfect for the Islamic State,” the smuggler said. “If you have a connection with them, the business will go smoothly.”

German Reporter Reveals ISIS Plans 'Nuclear Tsunami'
A veteran German journalist who became the first to gain access as an embedded reporter with Islamic State (ISIS) revealed the jihadist terror group plans to bring nuclear annihilation across the globe.
The journalist, Jurgen Todenhofer (75), released his findings in a book called "Inside IS - Ten Days in the Islamic State," reports the UK's Daily Express on Friday.
Todenhofer, who previously was an MP in German Chancellor Angela Merkel's CDU party before turning to journalism in 2000 as a war reporter, spent ten days with ISIS.

How Israel prevented ISIS from going nuclear
The entire free world owes Israel an enormous debt of gratitude.
Were it not for a prescient strike against a Syrian nuclear reactor in 2007, which foreign media sources credit Israel with carrying out, the fanatics of Islamic State would now be in possession of their own nuclear facility.
This revelation came to light thanks to a recent article on the NK News website by former US diplomat Dennis P. Halpin, who highlighted an intriguing tidbit of information that was otherwise almost completely ignored by the mainstream press.

US Declassifies Document Revealing Israel's Nuclear Program
Obama revenge for Netanyahu's Congress talk? 1987 report on Israel's top secret nuclear program released in unprecedented move. ✧ In a development that has largely been missed by mainstream media, the Pentagon early last month quietly declassified a Department of Defense top-secret document detailing Israel's nuclear program, a highly covert topic that Israel has never formally announced to avoid a regional nuclear arms race, and which the US until now has respected by remaining silent.

Why Netanyahu's Speech Matters
The emerging nuclear deal with Iran is indefensible. The White House knows it. That is why President Obama does not want to subject an agreement to congressional approval, why critics of the deal are dismissed as warmongers, and why the president, his secretary of state, and his national security adviser have spent several weeks demonizing the prime minister of Israel for having the temerity to accept an invitation by the U.S. Congress to deliver a speech on a subject of existential import for his small country. These tactics distract public attention. They turn a subject of enormous significance to American foreign policy into a petty personal drama. They prevent us from discussing what America is about to give away.

Bolton: Abject Surrender by the United States
By John Bolton
What does Israel do now?
Negotiations for an “interim” arrangement over Iran’s nuclear weapons program finally succeeded this past weekend, as Security Council foreign ministers (plus Germany) flew to Geneva to meet their Iranian counterpart. After raising expectations of a deal by first convening on November 8-10, it would have been beyond humiliating to gather again without result. So agreement was struck despite solemn incantations earlier that “no deal is better than a bad deal.” ✧ This interim agreement is badly skewed from America’s perspective. Iran retains its full capacity to enrich uranium, thus abandoning a decade of Western insistence and Security Council resolutions that Iran stop all uranium-enrichment activities. Allowing Iran to continue enriching, and despite modest (indeed, utterly inadequate) measures to prevent it from increasing its enriched-uranium stockpiles and its overall nuclear infrastructure, lays the predicate for Iran fully enjoying its “right” to enrichment in any “final” agreement. Indeed, the interim agreement itself acknowledges that a “comprehensive solution” will “involve a mutually defined enrichment program.” This is not, as the Obama administration leaked before the deal became public, a “compromise” on Iran’s claimed “right” to enrichment. This is abject surrender by the United States. Read more at the Weekly Standard... Read More......

Obama sounds death knell for nuclear power
AMERICAN THINKER, 5/8/2009 by Richard Henry Lee - Under the guise of cutting wasteful spending, President Obama is terminating support for the Yucca Mountain spent nuclear fuel repository in Nevada. While not unexpected, this development means that there will be no place to store nuclear waste, probably for decades, other than at temporary storage locations at each of the nation's nuclear power plants. ∴ This termination decision was one among several contained in a document titled "Terminations, Reductions, and Savings" which were announced today by the White House to cut $17 Billion from the FY2010 budget.

US admiral: Iran has enough material to make nuclear bomb
BEEITBART NEWS, 3/1/2009 - The United States believes Iran has enough fissile material to build a nuclear bomb, top military officer Admiral Mike Mullen said, marking the first time Washington has made such an assessment. --"We think they do, quite frankly," Mullen told CNN when asked if Iran had enough nuclear material to manufacture an atomic bomb. --"And Iran having a nuclear weapon, I've believed for a long time, is a very, very bad outcome for the region and for the world," said Mullen, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Shameful Stupidity
Global Analysis, Weekly Column Published 2/6/09 by J.R. Nyquist
"We no longer have a universal ideal!” exclaimed Fyodor Dostoevsky in the nineteenth century. Everything is flabby, vapid, all people are vapid! We all … are empty!” According to Dostoevsky, civilization had become an “ant heap” and Western religion was “fast approaching atheism.” A few years later a German philologist named Friedrich Nietzsche foresaw the advent of what he called “European nihilism,” which signified the future collapse of Christianity and the rise of totalitarian states, destructive wars, and a new barbarism. “Everything will be mob rule,” Nietzsche predicted. England only had another fifty years as a great power. The United States would “seemingly” become a great power, but would be “quickly consumed.” The country that would emerge on top, said Nietzsche, was Russia.
If a man of great insight and intuition, like Dostoevsky, thought our great grandparents were “flabby” and “vapid,” what would he say about us?" Read more at Global Analysis... Read More......
