"The possibility that al-Qaeda or its sympathizers could gain access to a nuclear bomb is the greatest danger facing the United States in the war on terrorism, Attorney General John Ashcroft said Thursday."

They probably are. From their al-Qaeda and company's point of view, it would be logical. That's why we have undercover agents, the CIA, etc. Are we supposed to cower in our homes every time the government starts stressing out over the possibility of a threat? I don't think so.

Remember the story about the little boy who cried "wolf" too many times? The U.S. government is coming very close to that point.
