WASHINGTON - The possibility that al-Qaida or its sympathizers could gain access to a nuclear bomb is the greatest danger facing the United States in the war on terrorism, Attorney General John Ashcroft (news - web sites) said Thursday.


U.S. officials "from time to time" uncover evidence terrorists are trying to develop nuclear capability, Ashcroft said without providing any specifics.

"If you were to have nuclear proliferation find its way into the hands of terrorists, the entire world might be very seriously disrupted by a few individuals who sought to impose their will, their arcane philosophy, on the rest of mankind," he said.


THIS IDIOT IS BASICALY TELLING US THE NEXT 911 IS GOING TO BE A NUCLEAR BOMB GOING OFF. I GUESS BUSH AND COMPANY ARE BUSY TARGETING A US CITY

[bahrbearian]

1. And use that for a reason to attack Iran.

[Freedom_from_Chains]

36. Oh I'm sure the best place the most likely have

to get nuclear material is Iran. Or so the story will go.

[NNN0LHI]

2. Boxcutters?

:shrug:

[RockStar]

18. I think they will incorporate there $5 laser pointers into it somehow.

[ixion]

3. seriously disrupted by a few individuals who sought to impose their will

their arcane philosophy, on the rest of mankind," he said.


Gee, sounds like BushCo to me.

Boy, that AshKKKroft is a bright boy. Isn't he a bright boy? :crazy: :freak:

[Tace]

6. No Kidding -- Bushco Projects

They all do it. Freud would have a field day.

[TolstoyAndy]

17. man, somebody always beats me

when I have a funny line. I saw "arcane philosophy" and the bells went right off.

I guess old John is a little too close to the problem of arcane philosophies to be able to help fight al Qaeda, though. Must be why he resigned.

[oneighty]

4. The elite

fear their death unlike any others. After the towers and the pentagon they feel personally targeted. Good on you Ashcroft. Many of us have lived in fear and even died for the benefit of you and your kind.

Be brave Ashcroft. God will protect you.

180

[Sterling]

11. "After the towers and the pentagon they feel personally targeted."

No they don't. Trust me.

[twaddler01]

19. Amen to that...

We all know Bush loves to put "fear" into the American people. Has he said anything about this yet? This would be a good reason to go to war again or possibly get into every other country' business because, of course, it is OUR responsibility. In the end, we will be all alone at this rate...

[Just Me]

5. Yup. OUR NUKES IN THE HANDS OF THE LIKES OF HIM!!!

Crazy, destructive, blood-spending, profitteering tyrants!!!!

Until these power-pukes came into power, I was an advocate against the death penalty. They have convinced me to make the same exception I would for Mussolin or Hitler: plan to execute them,...for the rest of their miserable lives!!!! Then, when they are dying,...give them NO DRUGS,...just a gun.

[NYC]

7. The neocons are doing this:

...the entire world might be very seriously disrupted by a few individuals who sought to impose their will, their arcane philosophy, on the rest of mankind...

And what is this?

U.S. officials "from time to time" uncover evidence terrorists are trying to develop nuclear capability, Ashcroft said without providing any specifics.

More imagination? Wishful thinking?

[Lone_Star_Dem]

13. The evidence is 100% true...

My sources collaborate the fact. I heard it from the Easter Bunny who heard it from, the Tooth Fairy, who heard it from a Leprechaun that al-Zarqawi told him that bin Laden said so.

[NYC]

14. I'm not sure about most of your sources,

but I trust the Easter Bunny.

[RockStar]

21. they havent had a chance to write that part of the story in yet. They are

waiting for hollywood then they will steal their idea.

[shanti]

33. time to ratchet up the fear level, johnny boy!

you're so good at spewing your handlers' bullshyt.

[NYC]

35. Dilemma

Are we supposed to revere and adore Ashkkkroft because the threat of crime and terra has been elimiated?

Or are we supposed to cower in fear because the terra-ists are seeking nukes (no details provided)?

I'm torn.

[Chicago Democrat]

8. SO WHAT HAVE THEY DONE ABOUT IT? (answer Make it Worse!)

Grrrrr

[superconnected]

9. and you guys thought bush was satan

"The president understands that this is almost mission impossible, to keep winning every day," he said. "To be always the winner and never be the loser is a very difficult task. The world is not absent terror. But the United States has been absent terror."


His greatest failure, Ashcroft said, was in not fully explaining to the American people early on just how the Patriot Act has helped in that war. Time will prove that the law has not been the threat to the Constitution seen by some, he said.


"Rights have not been infringed. Human dignity has not suffered. It's been enhanced and it has not carried a cost or toll on the civil liberties of America," Ashcroft said."

---------

bush is an idiot savant of satan, ashcroft is higher up on the satanic food chain.

[twaddler01]

10. Ohhhh gosh

Okay okay, so let's get another reason to go invade another country shall we?

[tuvor]

12. No! That can't be right!

Because in his resignation letter to bush, he wrote "The objective of securing the safety of Americans from crime and terror has been achieved."

WE ARE SAFE, EVERYONE! SAFE!

[NYC]

15. Thanks for reminding us.

"The objective of securing the safety of Americans from crime and terror has been achieved."

That was last week. Maybe it got unachieved?

[twaddler01]

30. Woa

:crazy:

[Laurab]

41. I wish he'd make up his mind already

I was feeling so safe until I read that. Do we ALL have to build bunkers, or will they let us share theirs?

[NYC]

43. Buy duct tape and plastic sheeting.

Bunkers are no longer required. Duct tape will save you. (Tom Ridge said so.)

No, of course you can't share their bunkers. But, if you think about it, you wouldn't want to anyway. :)

If we suffer a nuclear attack, I'll have to take the duct tape off the elbow pipe under the sink. I'll be environmentally correct during Armageddon by using recycled duct tape.

[Laurab]

46. Duct tape 1st thing tomorrow

and plastic sheeting, of course, if Ridge said so. You're quite right, I think I'd rather not share their bunkers - I hadn't given it enough thought. Now that I've thought about it:

:puke:

[DrBloodmoney]

16. Wow and I thought

gays were the largest danger!

[EFerrari]

25. Welcome to DU, DrBloodmoney

Gays have to get in line with abortion seekers and leftist liberals.


:hi:

[DrBloodmoney]

38. Thanks for the welcome!

[stillcool]

20. Tommy Thompson said it was the food supply..... n/t

[More Than A Feeling]

22. Why is he still talking?

No one cares what he thinks. Alberto "Yes, I like torture, why do you ask?" Gonzalez has pushed him out of the spotlight, and he is feeling irrelevant. Boohoo.

[koopie57]

23. I wish he would just

shut up already.

[RockStar]

24. Imagine bush&Co planning on nuking San Francisco, or Seattle. Then they

blame it on the iranians...Dont you think the 60% of the baffoons in america would believe it. BETTER yet image BUSH & CO nuking our US SOLDIERS all 150,000 in IRAQ and blaming it on the IRanians. I BET 85% of america would believe his ass and support an invasion (where would you get the soldiers --DRAFT--. Just a theory

[Horse with no Name]

27. Oh God what a horrible thought

We have got to get those men and women home before the decide to further their agenda.

[twaddler01]

31. Yep, and we also need to get Bush out of office!!!

I vote to impeach Bush! Besides, Clinton didn't harm anyone in his term (possibly his wife's feelings), this president has killed over 1,000 Americans--is this more than 9/11?

Anyway, IMPEACH Bush! Who's with me?

[EFerrari]

26. No, John. You're horribly maudlin tunes are far more dangerous. nt

[orpupilofnature57]

28. Ass craft, go the way of the Dodo bird and drug czar, Floyd blame-it

These neo-Bombs fail at their jobs,then tell how, when its too late to fire them.

[jayctravis]

29. a few individuals who sought to impose their will, their arcane philosophy

Just wow.

[alexisfree]

32. there goes the nationhood.. .

:grr:

[Fovea]

34. So be good for goodness sake....

Oh.. Somebody's coming...
</sinatra-voice>

[KingoftheJungle]

37. Remember folks, people like Ashcroft are the real power behind Al Qaida

They are basically laying the groundwork for a staged attack against us to further their aggressive polices of world domination. Just be ready for it, and don't say nobody warned you.

[lovuian]

39. Yep a Nuke Bomb

:nuke:

[adigal]

40. NO, Tyranny is the gravest danger

and it is coming from within. Stop trying to scare us, nitwit. I would rather die than live under a tyrant.

[leesa]

42. Isn't it time for this fool to cash in his poker chips??

You've retired fucker, now GO AWAY.

[EndElectoral]

44. The biggest threat ot Ashcroft is not nukes...it's the truth coming out!

[mojavekid]

45. "Be afraid, always, very, very afraid"

"Yawn"...............

[Melynn]

47. Does anyone remember the Reichstag fire?

Where the Nazi's used a trumped up "terrorist incident" to declare a state of national emergency and impose martial law in Germany.

Tommy Franks, the retired Army general, has stated that martial law will be declared in the U.S. if America gets hit with a WMD by terrorists. So there is your scenario for a complete neo-con takeover.

[twaddler01]

48. Scary thought...

"...It is clear that the Nazis immediately took advantage of the situation in order to advance their cause at the expense of civil rights. The Decree enabled the Nazis to ruthlessly suppress opposition in the upcoming election."

Let's hope it never comes to this...:think:

I liked this at the top of the webpage:

"They who will not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Recent events raise ghosts of the past."

This sucks!
