On December 22, 2005 USA Today had a Christmas present for al Qaeda: the exposure of one of the most vitally important anti-nuclear terror operations being conducted in the U.S. – the monitoring “of radiation levels at over a hundred Muslim sites in the Washington, D.C., area, including mosques, homes businesses, and warehouses, plus similar sites in at least five other cities.”
Brian Roehrkasse, a Justice Department spokesman told CBS News, that the administration “is very concerned with a growing body of sensitive reporting that continues to show al Qaeda has a clear intention to obtain and ultimately use chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear” weapons or high energy explosives.” He added that the government “monitors the air for imminent threats to health and safety,” but acts only on specific information about a potential attack without targeting any individual or group.
