"American Hiroshima"

[Theologian in Training]

It seems the next projected attack by Al-Qaeda will take the form of a nuclear attack by briefcase nukes or some other semblance thereof. The news is brimming with this, especially since many are looking to August 6th, the 60th Anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima. I don't quite know what to believe, but I do definitely think it is high time we storm the gates of heaven with prayers for peace and security.

still haven't seen this on any major news sources... how reliable is this "frontpage magazine"??

[Fidei Defensor]

Note - It is a good idea to keep this on hand, because sooner or later, there will be some kind of nuclear threat..

I am not trying to spread fear, nor am I validating these claims, I am merely encouraging us, as people who pray, to rally together and pray hard.

Whether it is possible or not, God has the greater probability, so let us implore Him to do as He Wills whatever that may be. Please God that it is not to wipe out millions of people.

And pray hard we should...

[jezic]

ohh yes, pray hard.

But with america today, i still think it will happen. I don't know that anyone can say where though. It is just sort of a reality of nuclear proliferation.

I was just thinking the same thing.

[quote]al-Qaida has nuclear weapons, probably many of them, and that some of them, according to a variety of sources, have already been smuggled into this country using our porous borders and with the help of criminal enterprises like the MS-13 gang. [/quote]

MS-13 is crazy. There are a lot of them around here. They wield machetes and stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if they were involved with terrorism.

Other than the fact that my brother was published on it...not much. It's sort of a conservative online tabloid...

[thessalonian]

Regardless of the credibility of the publication, we know that the terrorists would like very badly to do this. If they have the capability they will try to use it. We have no way of knowing if they have it or not but it is not far-fetched that they do. Pray the don't or if they do they will get caught before the use it. Personally I am very surprized they have not done anything in the US since 9-11. Somethings up.

Prayer is all that can help now,prayer . Many Memorares everyone ,many Memorares .


Remember O Most Gracious Virgin Mary that never was it know that anyone who fled to your protection ,implored your help ,or heeded your intercession was left unaided .Inspired with this confidence ,I fly unto you ,O Virgin of Virgins ,my Mother ,to you I come ,before you I stand ,sinful and Sorrowful.O Mother of the Word Incarnate ,despise not my petitions ,but in your mercy hear and answer me .Amen

I believe this was posted last month. I really am not a fan of Paul L. Williams (their source) and I don't entirely trust someone who wrote a smear campaign book about the Vatican. I suppose anything's possible and will pray.

I'm sorry, but this is fear-mongering. Nowhere in the mainstream news media (CNN, FOX, MSNBC, etc) am I finding anything about this "imminent nuclear threat." If there were anything to this, believe me, there would be coverage.

And no, World Net Daily is not a credible news source.

[thessalonian]

I agree that we should not be screaming "the sky is falling" because wnd says so. Nor am I saying we should all be running around in fear. But logic says that the #1 thing the terrorists would like to do is set off a nuke in the US. If they can they will. Not saying they can. Just:

a) Keep your soul free from mortal sin
b) Pray that it doesn't happen.
c) Pray "thy will be done" however.
d) In the words of a late great pope taken from scripture "be not afraid".

First off, I said that I am not trying to spread fear nor am I trying to be pessimistic. Rather, I was merely indicating a threat that many others feel we can be subjected to, and therefore, was encouraging prayers not fear.

Second, just because CNN, Foxnews, etc. do not have any indications does not mean that it is not something that could be in the works, as it were. Did CNN or Foxnews have any indication of Sept. 11th, the London bombings, etc.? Sometimes, and this is personal opinion, I find the free presses and independent journalists more reliable than the mainstream news. Granted, that is sometimes, but sometimes is better than no time at all.

God Bless
