ralphwiggum 6 Posted May 6, 2002 guess Buffet got pissed off after his company lost so much money. it is true that using nuke as a terrorist's weapon could be implemented, but the cost of that terrorist's action to himself whould be greater, thus preventing any attack using it. 9-11 taught everyone in the world what a lunatic can do. so if there's a chance that some lunatic is going to get his hands on weapons of mass destruction, whole world will be stopping it.

theavonlady 2 Posted May 6, 2002 Let's play the Nuclear Apocolypse Lottery! Each participant pays 20 million US dollars to the Russian Space Agency to get a shuttle ride to the International Space Station. The one that goes up when the nukes go off wins!

Aculaud 0 Posted May 6, 2002 I'm not surprised by his theory. I think its totally likely. It took a lot for whoever did it to hit the world trade center, but it was still in their reach.

If you think they would be willing to lump the entire Middle East into one group and kill millions of innocents in retaliation for the cowardly acts of a select few, you've got some thinking to do. And for those who think the scenario discussed here is not going to happen, I'm convinced that it is only a matter of time. It may not be a thermonuclear device next, but there will be weapons of mass destructions used against Western countries, and eventually, a real nuke will be used. I think the outlook for peace among nations and different religions is quite bleak... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In fact, to date it has never been done. All you would need is a suitcase bomb (like the ones Lebed claimed were missing by the dozen from Russia's arsenal), or the warhead from a gravity bomb, cruise missile, or howitzer grenade. Put it on a fishing vessel, and you can probably get close enough to either coast of the United States to deliver your message. Or you could dump the plutonium into the California Aquaduct, contaminating the water supply of more than 15 million people in Southern California. The fact that the radiation would easily be detected doesn't matter at all, since the entire infrastructure for delivering water to residents and industry would be permanently contaminated.

The comments he made were made at a stockholders meeting, and while brutally honest, probably didn't serve to instill confidence in his insurance company. I don't see how he is going to profit.

USSoldier11B 0 Posted May 7, 2002 Buffett = Rich dummy Probably pumping canal water up everyones' asses to boost sales. "Drink Coke before you get nuked." What a moron. Does being the second richest man in the world make him an expert in International Relations, Nuclear Warfar, Terrorism, as well as make him a prophet? No, I think he's full of shit.
