After countless reports about the potential for nuclear or radioactive weapons of mass destruction being smuggled into the United States, the State of Texas is has begun to take the threat seriously.
Via Houston Public Media:
Up and down the Texas Gulf Coast, the state’s game wardens are on the water, looking for people fishing or hunting illegally. But as we’ve reported, they sometimes come across things like illegal chemical dumpsites and more says Texas Parks and Wildlife’s Tom Harvey.
“Game wardens encounter all kinds of things on their patrols, including a lot of illegal fishing, and this is a new threat we’re gearing up to be able to address,“ Harvey told News 88.7.
That new threat is terrorism. One fear is that terrorists could try to smuggle radioactive material into the country by boat. The Port of Houston has for years had radiation detectors to scan cargo.
So now, besides guns and handcuffs, game wardens will have one more tool.
“We’ve acquired about a hundred devices that allow game wardens to detect radiological or nuclear emissions. These are little devices that can be worn on someone’s belt,” Harvey said.
They’re about the size of a cellphone and can help a warden determine if something suspicious is radioactive. It wouldn’t necessarily have to be connected to terrorism: radioactive materials used in the energy and medical industries can be illegally dumped.
Game wardens began training with the radiation detectors in January and completed a mock exercise to find radioactive packages along the coast.
In March the Obama administration warned that there were four ways a large-scale nuclear attack on U.S. soil could happen,
The havoc such an attack could wreak in an urban area such as New York or London is concerning enough that leaders scheduled a special session on the threat during the two-day summit. U.S. officials said the leaders would discuss a hypothetical scenario about a chain of events that could lead to nuclear terrorism.
And just last month we learned that ISIS-linked terrorists have targeted at least two nuclear power plants in Europe – one in Belgium in the lead up to the terror attacks in Brussels, as well as a cyber attack on a German plant that made it possible for hackers to take control of highly radioactive cooling rods at the facility. Moreover, as far as Europe is concerned, officials report that CBRN weapons (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear) have already been smuggled into Europe, suggesting that mass-casualty attacks are in the planning stages.
The threats to America is equally serious, as officials have reported that terrorists have already been captured attempting to cross into the United States through our southern border. Moreover, in recent years there have been numerous cases of nuclear material capable of being used in dirty bombs being stolen from facilities in Mexico.
The issue was so serious that the Texas Rangers were dispatched to secure the southern border amid the threat.
Though ignored by most Americans as an implausible scenario, the fact that DHS recently announced they will be holding a mock poison gas attack in New York suggests that officials are growing more concerned with the potential for a serious attack on key U.S. cities.
Should a chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear attack become reality, the panic would be unprecedented. Large scale evacuations of entire cities or regions would be likely, and thousands could die or be sickened because of a lack of protective equipment against CBRN attacks.
That terrorists are actively targeting nuclear power plants is a warning sign that should not be taken lightly. The goal is mass casualties, and CBRN devices would be the optimal weapons used.

While the ignorant and gullible masses in America are entertained with so much fearporno about nukes coming from the Southern border, the real terrorists are freely entering the US by Canada and also arriving legally to this country at any point of entry.
Unbelievable how stupid Americans can be by swallowing such piece of crap of article
Hell. This just tells me that their “dirty shit” has already found its way into the country, and so now it is safe to give border agents a way to detect nothing at all. Again, duping the masses.
Of course, there is no way that “they” would not try to use either coastline or “down through Canada” …and so they gave themselves away trying TOO HARD to ‘cover it up’ too quickly. Paranoia on their parts is starting to get to them? heheh….
the main routes into the US have radiation detectors on them and have for 7 years that i know of,I don’t know about the North routes into the US, BUT what I do know is that they fear that some stuff WAS brought into the US AFTER the cold war and IF hidden correctly could be here and just waiting! sure hope that is NOT the case, but some think it is a strong possibility.I guess someday we will find out!
Apache54, remember those old “suitcase nukes” made in the USSR back in the 80s and were supposedly under KGB control? After the Soviet Union went out of existence, those nukes were discovered missing and to my knowledge were never found. I’ve always suspected they may have been smuggled in here even before the USSR came to an end. I wonder if those nukes could even still be used considering their age.
Brave,
I remember those being talked about and Hollywood even made a movie about one of those showing up in the US, I have heard the military quietly discuss, BUT i have never heard what they really think, other than most believe they exist but don’t know where they went! I also remember meeting some supposedly EX-spetsnaz
military people who said they came into the US thru Mexico illegally in the real early 90’s and were trying to make it to the east coast to work. i talked to them in Wilcox AZ in, they were friendly after lots of alcohol, but i never bought the story they told so at that time borders were really wide open. so who knows??
@ Equorial:
Right. The borders are wide open while the government expends its TSA checkpoints and the police state inside the USA.
Peter Einstein, most of the ignorant and gullible masses aren’t even reading warnings like this.
As if those if us here didn’t already KNOW that the northern border is just as porous as the southern.
Problem is, Canada should have been smarter about who they let in.
It’s not our fault Canada is run by ignorant and gullible politicians. Communists, actually.
Just what our fascist so called President wants.
Now,now Peter….The nuke threat is real, it’s just that the info has been hush, hush for a long time. Rented my winter home in Yuma to a nuke detection install contractor a few years ago. And yes, we are overrun with Bad People cells all over the US..Many are called DemoRats. When it does hit the fan, just make sure you are ready to handle it.
The threat could already be here. Sitting in the White house. Why not covertly drop a bomb somewhere?
Of course so many (not all) are stupid. They voted for Ayatola Mohammed Obama and the best the democraps can do now is Clinton II and Sanders. And 45% of the low class trash pay no taxes so they like things just the way they are.
If someone wants to use a nuke it would be in their best interest to use it in DC first to test it. I could think of other things but I guess if they have to do it. We as Americans are really in need of help no matter where it comes from.
Deer and boar with nuke weapons,knew they were gonna fight back some day!
Here is a simplistic/dumb idea,instead of arming game wardens with detectors,how about actually closing the borders down?Keep the detectors for the ports/airports for international shipping perhaps?
Yep, what WD said… Its all BS anyhows.. U got IX XI, and the ussa doesnt shut tha borders down… GMAFB… Its all very articulatly crafted and planed…
That would be too logical and require common sense ! Our government is completely out of control and incompetent. But nothing new for sure.
So if the government is so worried then why are they bringing in “refugees”.??
When a boatload of terrorists reach our shores with a nuke, their buddies who Otraitor flew in, can pick them up and bring them to a safe place to plan their attack on America. By the way, that makes Otraitor, an accessory. Actually it makes him (Obama-Osama-Otraitor) the prime facilitator.
We are only allowing in all the extra people to help soak up the damned radiation “after the fact” …simple. 😉
Uh…and did Border Patrol get any detectors? No wait! I forgot that O’salami had them pull back.
Po’d P,
the boder patrol DOES have several types of radiation detectors and IF you happen to have had a type of medical treatment that required any radiation to be used YOU WILL set them off. I watched them on a almost daily basis as i had to go thru them daily.
Thanks Apache54. Good to know.
PO’d,
You are very welcome, I try to help where i can, sometimes i get wound up slamming trolls and forget to try to share things i do know about! HA
Damn it, I was already pissed that my doctor ordered a CT scan and exposed me to a needless test– all that radiation not only guarantees cancer in 20 years I now find out I can set off a radiation detector! Just Damn!
The enemy will smuggle in RPGs grenades mortars. And we will have nothing but rifles. It won’t matter how many we are with nothing but rifles. Look at the Mid East . They have everything. Including rockets.
No need to smuggle a damn thing in when you KNOW it is already here waiting on them to arrive to use it. No diff than The Mid East and the same set of players. Obama and His Administration bringing Sharia to a Mosque near you!
Doesn’t matter WHAT they have. (It is amazingly easy to ‘lift’ munitions from an enemy …and blow the rest to hell along with them).
You guy are crazy, it people like you that makes this country dangerest.
Whenever “they” are ready to make their move every police station, National Guard Armory or Reserve Center and gun sales in the country will provide all the needed weapons. It will involve a massive physical attack in sufficient numbers to easily access any and all such facilities which are lightly guarded if at all. Any losses these terrorists may incur will be acceptable as martyrdom is an acceptable and welcome result. Even an intrusion of better guarded military bases will be relatively easy for a determined group of invaders to accomplish.
the troops don’t CARRY weapons with ammo in the U.S….maybe a few M/P’s, but that’s about it….should be a cake-walk for the terriss’
Last update:
Fire is mostly under control now. Notley and her cronies have taken over for the photo opps. Trudeau showed his pretty face in fort Mac today …….what a farce. I came home. Notley is bring touted as a hero in all this. Anyone following this please pay no attention to the msm. The closest I’ve found for true news is called “THE REBEL MEDIA” pretty accurate news.
With a comment section after every arrival you folks should read some of the comments from the citizenry of Alberta.
Waiting for hcks post should be a good one today.
OH AND TO ALL WHO OFFERED THIER PRAYERS AND GOOD WILL…… THANK YOU ON BEHALF OF ALL ALBERTIANS.
the mazur detector gets good reviews…i had mine for 2 years now, on the same battery.
Which one? The PRM 9000? That’s the one I have wanted for a while now. Well either that or the S.E. International Inspector (or it’s US Medcom equivalent). I actually have quite a few radiation detection devices and geiger counters if for no other reason than I like them and collect them. The next time you take a road trip, try turning your geiger counter on and placing it on the dash with the detector facing out the windshield. You will be quite surprised at just how many 18 wheelers will give off somewhat high readings. I did this with the old Radalert 50 I keep in my bugout bag, thinking I would pick up pockets of radiation from driving through mountains made of granite ( you get various elements from the Neptunium decay chain in granite) but it was actually big trucks that set it off the most.
mine’s the 9000….keep it in house, but since you made the suggestion, i’m going to take it on a couple trips soon. thank you
That takes care of the “one-third of the earth’s trees will burn” theory (saying this with kid-gloves).
Its only a matter of time. Wake up one morning; and POOF. Philly is Gone. Maybe not such a bad thing.
If our gov did a false flag nuke texas then we be trapped and couldent flee south gotta keep them sheeple pinned up
I knew that this as real.. now look what’s going in in my city a d dumbasses come in here calling bullshit on me and my friend hour scientist.. Texas phuck wind up in a bad. Bad shtf situation..I won’t even bother to use the end game prepper formula.. Good luck to everyone, some of us are going get our asses killed by the foreign enemies.. like I said I am already in deep shit.
HCKS.
You called it.
Sgt.
Just like the illegals coming across the border. Obullshit will let the nukes come in. That POS.
Sgt.
Thank you, obama, you scumbag POS.

Remember the Jan. 2005 PANIC due to a rumor that Chinese with a NUKE had crossed the Mexican border and were headed to blow up Boston. The border is STILL wide open …… so like …. they care about airplanes but NOT about whole cities being NUKED?!
http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/02/26/60minutes/main4831806.shtml
Above is a transcript from March 2nd 2009 (rerun on June 21) 60 MINUTES. In brief, the Government acknowledges that it has no control of the border. TONS of drugs and Millions of ILLEGALS enter this country. TONS of cash and TONS of weapons leave this country. They have no way of knowing how many “TERRORISTS” have crossed .
TWO things were of major interest:
(1) The Department of Homeland Security acknowledges they have no control – therefore, HOW are they going to protect YOU from TERRORISTS, if they cannot stop gangbangers, YARD WORKERS, NANNIES, COOKS from strolling across.
(2) The “head” of the Department of Homeland Security (and others) tries to blame your RIGHT to keep and bear ARMS for the weapons going south. The only trouble is …….. they showed and talked of MISSILES, HAND GRENADES, BELT FED MACHINES GUNS. Those are weapons STOLEN FROM THE AMERICAN MILITARY. They are not coming from the SEMI-auto Civilian world! They are direct from your Military’s ARMORIES. Not only can your Government NOT PROTECT the borders …. and YOU. The Government CANNOT HANG ON TO IT’S OWN WEAPONS!!!
OH— operation “Fast and Furious” —– your Government is GIVING guns to NARCOTERRORISTS
And now for a public service announcement.

With an unsecured border, common sense it will be exploited with dangerous consequences sooner or later. Total failure of the president from the start. Like earlier disasters bombs have to go off before he does anything and even then minimal at best to protect american citizens.
Our borders are wide open. The latest Congressional hearings on this confirmed it. O is threatening anyone who follows our immigration laws and allowing everyone across. Everything any of you have read about what O is doing is true.
How long do any of you honestly think this could go on without something really bad happening again? it is what O wants.
who cares , after 8 years of oboma , i could care less, seeing how they don’t, we have a radioactive dump right here , and it’s in d.c.. the sooner they put poor oboma out of his missary the better, 8 years of the freak and the world has gone to hell , so much for your stupid hope and change , and the pack of lies he is still feeding you all
This smuggling of plutonium has been going on for years. The Militia that worked down there reported finding “mules” dead in the US desert area and they were contaminated with radioactive material. The RM was gone..taken inland the presume. There are apparently dirty bombs already in the USA that have been here for 8 years! Who knows how many! ISIS is just across the river from Del Rio, TX.
This is old news in one sense and new news in that they FINALLY gave them meters. But ALL LEOs should have them. They could, at least, check every single illegal for radioactivity. This would lead them to the material, eventually.
Under Obama, who knows how many illegal enemy agents are in the USA!
Barack Hussein Obama did promise change when he ran, didn’t he? He didnt specify what change, but he kept his promise. Mass Terrorism is escalating both abroad and at home. He is tying Israel’s hands preventing them from trying to stabilize the region. He is dissing our allies and friending our communist and dictatorship enemies like Cuba, iran, and Argentina. He is turning our country into a third world. He is destroying our dollar and economy by increasing the debt and helping illegals take our jobs. The only way to pay it off is by stealing money from us through changing the money system. He wants to completely change over to credit cards and no cash so he can track everybodys purchases. He is encouraging iran to pursue its terroristic nature to take over the world. He is encouraging Islamic terrorists to enter the us through mexico, and the refugee program. For him only black lives matter, not american lives. We all feel insecure now, that our gov. is incompetent and self destructive. I would say, yes, Obama has indeed brought change, hasn’t he?
The mu-slimes have been waging war on all non-mu-slimes since they were created by their pedophile liar moohammed. The only way to stop them from conquering all the world is to eradicate them entirely. Unless that is done, they will one day enslave all mankind under their satanic cult.
@HellOnEarth….Israel stabilizing the Middle East ? What, are you crazy ? Before Israel bombed its way into existence, the USA had not one enemy in the M.E. The Eastern European aashkenazi Khazars, posing as the “Chosen People” from the Bible, have been a poisonous dagger in the heart of that region since Al Nakba. Don’t make me puke with your Christian Zionist or Fake Jew Zionist B.S. And many people are waking up to the fact that it was Mossad and their rogue cohorts in the CIA who planned and carried out the 911 attacks, and there will be HellOnEarth for them to pay, regardless of their Samson option and their Federal Reserve printing press that keeps them all in clover.
It has been said that politicians never let a crisis go to waste. They always use it to gather more power for themselves. It works so well. They have a never ending lust for power. How could they get even more power? Well, if there is no crisis why not help create one? The bigger the crisis, the more power they can get for themselves. Because we all have been lead to believe that government has the answer to all our problems. When in fact, they are causing our problems to benefit themselves. I think it is too late to change much at this point. Good luck everybody!
