Some rumor is floating around that alQaueauedaeuda is going to nuke the US, apparently with nukes they bought from Russia and somehow have had maintained by professionals since the 1980s, even though they were our friends then, rofl, to coincide with the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (Even though neither happened on the 13th.)
Why would anybody start such a stupid hoax?

How ironic, just today I was talking to a good friend about the possibility of something like this happenning. This is probably like the "don't drink pepsi" rumor that floats around every once in a while. I woulnd't worry.

That isn't what would happen.
MAD is not something that could ever happen. That's not the plan.

I dont think it would cause MAD either.. For one, if it's on the internet, it's common knowledge (i would hope) in intelligence circles, so there goes the "Sum of All Fears" element of surprise

No one is nuking the US, we're just sending a truckload of anthrax to you. Apparently the America has come against you and we want you out.

The original date for this 'event' was the 6th. It's BS, although if we do get nuked, we'll die so fast it wouldn't even matter.

How many of these rumors have started that all end up fizzling, and why should I give two shits about this one? Fucking stupid paranoia. Nothing's going to happen.
(it better not, the 13th is my birthday)

I too am fearmongered!!1
I saw this guy on the telly from sweden or something, some kind of terrism Xpert dude. He was like 'yeah there is reliable info that Amsterdam will be next, somewhere between august 15 and sept 15. He said it was the same group who claimed a whole lot of other stuff on the internet before it happened (and then he proceeded to name like seven attacks all across europe) and said 'i don't know why the dutch authorities are not taking precautions... they claim they're still investigating the claims but see no need for extra security at the moment'.
It would be so totally typical of the utterly burocratic dutcho goverment to ignore something like this that i almost couldn't help believing him instead of seeing it as some cunning guy who was trying to scare people for his own devious ends, like i usually do... I'm taking my bike to work from now on, lol.

i thought australia was fine until a moment ago (when the pop song that came out with the crocodile dundee movie jumped into my head).
now i wish i had control over some mentalist johnny jihad with semtex suspenders and a sydney bus timetable.

Seriously, if this ever happened, it wouldn't be pretty. Bush would level countries.
