Countdown To Zero Page #2

Georgia is located

along Russia's southern border

and things like highly enriched uranium

could be smuggled from such a place

by Azerbaijan,

Iraq, Iran,

Turkmenistan, Afghanistan

and so on so forth.

The Georgians invented a so called man

of Turkish nationality

who said he was a Muslim and

representing a

serious organization.

Oleg Khintsagov

believed he was selling

highly enriched uranium

to make an atomic weapon to terrorists

If a truck driver

can get hold of it,

a small time husler

who just wants to become a rich guy

imagine what

professionals could have done

Real professionals

with an ideology,

with an agenda

with brains

Once you have moved the

highly enriched uranium,

you could use

any number of ports

in the Middle East

or the Mediterranean

to ship the

HEU to your destination.

smuggling highly enriched Uranium

into the United States,

is pretty straight forward

lead pipe will

shield the HEU.

The detector would have be

within a few inches

to pick up any radiation.

And then hide it amongst

everyday goods

A hundred pounds of highly enriched uranium

is smaller than a football.

It would fit in a 6 pack beer cans

go to the united states everyday

Every way the drugs come to new york city

would be the same way you would imagine

highly enriched uranium coming.

If you have any doubt about

the ability of al-Qaeda

to bring highly enriched uranium

into the U.S.

They could always hide it

a bale of marijuana.

Terrorism is just one threat

the deliberate threat.

There is also the

unintentional threat

of a nuclear detonation

by accident,by error

or by misjudgment.

We like to think that

the U.S. military

or other military who are

controlling nuclear weapons

are perfect organizations ,

they will never fail .

We expect them to have 100% reliability.

But even the well-disciplined,

very professional U.S military

made serious serious mistakes

with nuclear weapons.

An atomic bomb breaks loose

from a mounting shakle / i

in a B-47 jet over

Florence, South Carolina, / i

causing a sensational freak accident./ i

A B-52 bomber was loaded with nuclear weapons by mistake / i

And nobody knew.

not the aircraft crew, / i

not the commanders on ground. / i

we have had B-52's explode

in the air

to fall onto the Spain territory

and into the Mediterranean.
