Facility audit manifests British nuclear material vulnerability – proliferation by negligence – can Al Queda get hold of the same?
According to international think tanks, there are many sleeping Al-Queda terror cells in Britain waiting for instruction from central command and control man Bin Laden.
Britain's largest nuclear facility, Sellafield, misplaced 65 pounds of plutonium in 2004, an amount sufficient to make at least seven nuclear bombs, according to a British government audit released Feb.17. The plant also lost track of 42 pounds of plutonium in 2003. The International Atomic Energy Agency has guidelines permitting 3 percent of plutonium throughput to be unaccounted for, and Sellafield's losses will fall within that limit given the quantities it reprocesses.
Sources in Britain differ with official British statement that this discrepancy in nuclear fuel is really the effect of overestimating the same. Similar statement also was heard from the Russians when nuclear materials were missing from their stockpile.
If the British story is right, UK may have caused a proliferation of enriched nuclear fuel to unknown people. While Al Queda may not have the infrastructure to steal the nuclear fuel, other Governments will try to create the nukes with these laps of security in this very serious matter.
If Al-Queda gets hold of these nuclear fuel, the security of America, Israel, India, Russia and other countries’ securities will become vulnerable.
