Feds Search Thousands of Homes and Mosques For Dirty Bombs

Another top-secret program we're reading about for some reason. Although I wouldn't be surprise if this one were leaked by an Administration-friendly source, to remind the shrill opposition that this isn't Chutes and Ladders we're playing.

The U.S. government has launched a top secret search for terrorists believed to be in possession of a ‘dirty bomb’ (radiological weapon which combines radioactive material with conventional explosives), the U.S. News and World Report revealed on its website Friday.

...

According to the report, authorities are conducting tests in hundreds of Muslim sites, including mosques, homes, businesses and warehouses to detect radioactive activity.

...

Experts contend that the impact of a ‘dirty bomb’ would be disastrous, with thousands killed and downtowns rendered uninhabitable.

...

The search, which the U.S. News and World Report says is being conducted without a court order, is focusing on Washington D.C., New York, Los Angeles, Detroit, Seattle and Las Vegas.

...

According to the report, those who protested the search teams’ entrance into Muslim site without warrants were told that it was a legal procedure and that they may lose their jobs if they object.

Merry Christmas!

Thanks again to Allah.
