Detecting Nuclear Smuggling

user-pic

 

Today in the Washington Times, I apply some of the ideas in On Nuclear Terrorism to the problem of nuclear smuggling. Drawing from the arrest last week of three people who were trying to sell uranium powder, I argue that bread and butter law enforcement and intelligence, rather than fancy technology, should be central to our nuclear “detection” efforts.

I’ll post soon in response to Bill’s thoughtful points.
