On 26th April The Daily Telegraph reported on a bunch of Wikileaks files that KSM, the man who had been severely tortured and allegedly admitted to plotting 9/11, knew of a nuclear device that would be detonated if Osama bin Laden was captured or killed. This was backed up by statements taken from Abu Al-Libi.
It is not coincidental that terror threat meters have been raised.

Wikileaks: Al-Qaeda plotted chemical and nuclear attack on the West
Guantanamo interrogators have uncovered a determined attempt by al-Qaeda to attack Western countries using chemical or nuclear weapons, according to the top-secret files.

One of the terrorist group’s most senior figures warned that al-Qaeda had obtained and hidden a nuclear bomb in Europe that would be detonated if Osama bin Laden was killed or captured.
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the al-Qaeda mastermind currently facing trial in America over the 9/11 atrocities, was involved in a range of plans including attacks on US nuclear plants and a “nuclear hellstorm” plot in America.
A number of the conspiracies admitted by detainees during interrogation in Cuba seem improbable, but other plans were detailed and thoroughly analysed.
Some detainees displayed an apparently comprehensive knowledge of Western countries’ defences against nuclear attack.
According to the US WikiLeaks files, a Libyan detainee, Abu Al-Libi, “has knowledge of al-Qaeda possibly possessing a nuclear bomb”. Al-Libi, the operational chief of al-Qaeda and a close associate of Osama bin Laden before his detention, allegedly knew the location of a nuclear bomb in Europe that would be detonated if bin Laden were killed or captured.
