| Al-Qaeda does not have "nuclear cells" in Italy |
| 2005-09-13 |
| Al Qaeda does not have nuclear cells in Italy - of this Stefano Dambruso, the ex-Milan public prosecutor and an expert in terrorism who is currently working with the UN in Vienna on anti terrorism matters, is convinced. "We find ourselves faced with scenarios that are proposed by analysts - explains Dambruoso, commenting on the article in today's La Stampa that talks about nuclear devices already being in Italy. They are hypotheses, I don't mean purely academic ones but almost. There is no need for alarm therefore and above all we need to think about in strategic preventative terms considering the greatest risks but thinking concretely about emergencies requiring investigation. In this case there is no emergency requiring investigation that leads us to think that there are nuclear cells at Al Qaeda'a disposition in Italy." |

| #10 I'm not sure what they mean by "nuclear": that could mean covert Islamist cells working among the Muslim immigrant population that are at the absolute minimum size to enhance covertness. On the other hand, if they mean a nuclear device. well yeah, there definitely are not- -Mainly because if Al Qaeda HAD them in Italy, they'd USE them in Italy. The USA may be the Head Satan, but that didn't stop them from going after Aussies in Bali, Spaniards in Madrid, and Brits in London. |

| #9 Spelling only counts if you are writing in a recognized language. Mucky has his own language that we can only guess at. Perhaps someday we'll stumble on a Rosetta Stone (carved on the bottom of a skateboard) that will enable us to grasp the true beauty of his wisdom. Or not. |

| #1 If AQ had one nuclear device, I can see they would use on the Vatican given their penchant for symbolism. Probably hoping Mecca is nuked in retaliation, a recruiting dream. |
