its now being reported that in october of 2001, there was a possibility that a small grouping of terrorists managed to get a nuclear bomb into new york city. the report was soon found out to be false, after an extensive researching of the information. however, now that the information is released, some are criticising that the information did not go public at the time. opinions?

as one of the people that would have been kablooeyed... id still say im glad they didnt say anything. saying something really would not have accomplished anything, other than mass chaos and panic. every evacuation path would have been clogged beyond belief (and with good reason). and, then, only to find out within hours that the leads are false? ... that would make all of the panic and jitters unnecessary. id say it was a good move.

United Airlines in a day.
How do they sneak the nuke in the city and where did they steal it? Did they build one themselves? Where did they obtain the enriched radioactive material?

There have been several sting operations led by U.S. and European police, where police have pretended to be criminals seeking to buy enriched uranium stolen from facilities in the former Soviet republics. And recovered stolen uranium.
There are also supposed to be several "suitcase nukes" developed by the Soviets for battlefield use. Which the former Soviet military officer and one-time Russian Presidential candidate Alexander Rutskoi (who died recently in a plane crash) said were missing from Russia's arsenal.
Or those seeking nukes could seek what they need from the oldest source: purchasing enriched uranium through corrupt individuals working at nuclear energy facilities in Europe. Which is how Israel first obtained the necessary material for its nuclear arsenal, that became weapon-ready in 1973.
More recently in the news, a number of nuclear stockpile facilites in the U.S. have been in the news as inadequately guarded, where enriched uranium could be stolen.
A related terrorist potential (spotlighted on 60 Minutes, if i recall) is flying a plane into a nuclear facility. The report I saw noted that the 9-11 plane that crashed in Western Pennsylvania flew directly over such a facility. Obviously unaware they did, because it would have been an even more destructive target than the Capitol, where the hijacked plane was headed.
Most of these possibilities have been mentioned recurrently in the news since 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed.
