Osetia registered officially", other thans South Ossetian officials saying so. 133 is the figure released by the Russian Prosecutor General. It will probably go up when graves in courtyards are opened, but it will hardly go up to 1,600. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/7572635.stm I’d like to have a source for the “more than 1,600 civilian deaths in S.

In the UK, it was presented that an outfit like al-Qaeda would not balk at setting off a nuclear device in a western city but, non-state actors being unable to produce their own nuclear device, would have to procure it from a state actor who would be willing to sell. The argument presented was that Saddam Hussein might well be willing to sell such a device under certain circumstances, and having paid attention to the whole process, it was not an argument without merit. Personally, I always thought that the unsecured nuclear kit lying about following the fall of the USSR was more of a worry, but I was no dismissive of the argument regarding the dangers of al-Qaeda purchasing a nuclear or biological device from Saddam's Iraq and carrying out a 9/11 style attack.
