| Iran nuke commercial hits 20 US TV markets |
| 2005-04-13 |
| A commercial produced by an organization fighting for the freedom of Iran that depicts a nuclear terror attack in America — the kind many experts believe is possible should Tehran get the bomb — will run in 20 markets across the country this month. Titled "An Atomic 9-11: When Evil is Appeased," the spot, sponsored by the Iran Freedom Foundation, is based on a scenario described in the new WND Books release "Atomic Iran: How the Terrorist Regime Bought the Bomb and American Politicians," by Jerome R. Corsi, co-author of the best-selling "Unfit for Command." The ad can be viewed on the IFF website. Corsi believes an atomic 9-11 is an imminent threat once a terrorist state like Iran has the capability to develop nuclear weapons. "The major technical problems that have kept terrorists from exploding improvised nuclear devices within American cities are solved once a terrorist regime like the Islamic Republic of Iran has the capability to manufacture a nuclear weapon and deliver it in containers to a major U.S. port," he said. "The device can be picked up by sleeper terrorist cells, assembled and driven into the heart of the city, where it can be detonated at the height of an ordinary business day." The resulting destruction from a successful atomic 9-11 attack on a major U.S. city like New York would be enormous. "In the blink of an eye, the United States could be reduced to second-class economic status," Corsi said. The scenario described in "Atomic Iran" shows that a 150-kiloton IND exploded in New York would reduce much of the city to rubble. Some 1.5 million people would be killed instantly, with another 1.5 million certain to die over the next few days. The television ad will air for 13 days four times daily in each city. The markets include cities in Maine, Mississippi, Texas, Oregon, California, New Jersey, Illinois, Ohio, South Carolina, Alabama, Indiana, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Washington, Florida, and Washington, D.C. http://www.iranfreedomfoundation.org/ Do have a look at the commercial at the above link. It is short, sweet, and scary. |
