#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.

#2 Well, that's that. I'm so relieved.

#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.

#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.
