Breaking! 6 people in Moldova arrested for trying to sell 55 pounds of highly enriched uranium!
Enough to make one nuke...

And it's coming out of Russia.

[link to news.yahoo.com]

Interior Ministry official Vitalie Briceag said the uranium-235 was brought in from Russia. He said the smugglers were trying to sell it to a North African country for €20 million ($28.85 million).

The International Atomic Energy Agency considers 25 kilograms (55 pounds) of uranium-235 a "significant quantity" — technical language for the amount needed to make a nuclear bomb.



Doom?

Libya wanted a nuke. Gaddafi is quite pissed about now. Anyways this has been happening for along time, since the fall of the USSR.

Marty McFly: Doc, you don't just walk into a store and buy plutonium-- did you rip that off?

Doc: Shhhhhh. Of course. From a group of Libyan nationalists. They wanted me to build them a bomb, so I took their plutonium and in turn, gave them a shiny bomb-casing filled with used pinball machine parts.
