Atomic bomb for the poor, part 2. Atomic bomb for the poor

In the next couple of weeks I will post videos of the film on YouTube under the general title “Atomic Bomb for the Poor People.” The content of the film is suicide bombers of the Islamic State.

The phenomenon of ISIS suicide bombers is that for the first time in many decades, suicide bombers are used as a fundamentally new type of weapon on the battlefield. We are accustomed to the fact that a suicide bomber is a terrorist, but now both Iraq and Syria are faced with a completely different phenomenon - suicide bombers, people who deliberately use their own death as a weapon against enemies in battle.

The emergence of suicide bombers was the result of a whole complex of reasons - from a purely rational design decision for their creation to deep-seated mental reasons that allowed the Islamic State to find a fundamentally new and very powerful resource to fight its opponents - death.

The power of this resource allows the Islamic State to fight almost equally with well-prepared opponents. The reliance on special forces, which the American, Iraqi, Iranian and Russian militaries made, does not work in this case. The very well prepared (by Arab standards) “Golden Division”, which was trained according to the methods of the 101st American division, turned out to be powerless in the fight against an enemy ten times smaller in number and much worse prepared. All preparation, all tactical schemes and special equipment turn out to be powerless in the face of a ton of explosives that explode near and in the middle of battle formations.

The massive use of Istishhadi suicide bombers has become a kind of atomic bomb of the Islamic State, against which there are simply no adequate weapons.

The Russian leadership, having become involved in someone else's conflict, does not have a very good idea of what it has gotten itself into. In general, there is nothing to be surprised at - a street shoe that believes in only one value - the dollar - cannot imagine a situation where something else could be a value. Refusal to live in humiliation, for example. “I will not live in humiliation” is one of the key phrases uttered by the Islamic State propaganda, and this phrase resonates with millions of people.

Nevertheless, since the Kremlin’s bullshit has dragged us into this war, we should at least understand what exactly we are facing there in Syria, and what we will inevitably be faced with here in Russia. They will clash, if only because for the Islamic State, Russia is not goal number one or even goal number two. However, constant attempts to provoke him will eventually lead to the fact that distant approaches will inevitably come here. And this is the criminal idiocy of our authorities.

The film itself is not yet completely finished, but in general it already exists. All that remains is to reduce it and break it down into readable parts. I think the film will be about two hours in total, so there will be four or five parts in total.

NSDC Secretary Oleksandr Turchynov said that Ukraine is ready to create a so-called “dirty bomb” within the framework of closed military-technical programs. According to him, “it doesn’t matter whether it’s dirty or clean, the main thing is that it’s effective.” It’s difficult to say what exactly the pastor of the Word of Life Baptist Church, Alexander Turchinov, meant.

There can be many types of “dirty bombs”. Spent fuel from a nuclear power plant or materials from nuclear centers can be used as a filling for making a dirty bomb. Moreover, unlike classical atomic weapons, there is no need to reach the critical mass of an atomic charge. Strictly speaking, such a device may consist of a container with radioactive isotope and an explosive charge. During an explosion, a radioactive substance is sprayed over a fairly large area and makes it uninhabitable for a long time (half-life of the isotope).

One option for a “dirty bomb” could be the deliberate detonation of a non-military facility that uses radioactive materials. Typically, the most common assumption remains that those who want to create a dirty atomic bomb will try to do so simply because it is much easier and cheaper. In addition to the so-called “classic” “dirty bombs,” mechanical dispersion of radioactive material was also considered. In science fiction literature, this option was first described by Robert Heinlein in the story “Solution Unsatisfactory” in 1940. The idea of a cobalt bomb was proposed in 1950 by American physicist and Manhattan Project participant Leo Szilard, as an example of a weapon that could make the earth uninhabitable. Created by an explosion high in the stratosphere, the cobalt 60 isotope is capable of dispersing over large areas, contaminating them. Szilard himself owns a phrase said on the air of one of the radio stations in the late 50s: “It is easier to completely destroy all of humanity with a cobalt bomb than any part of it.” Since then, this idea has been “living and winning.”

Two incidents that can be classified as radiological terrorism occurred in Russia. In 1995, law enforcement discovered cesium-137 in Izmailovsky Park in Moscow, and in 1998, a container of radioactive material attached to a mine was discovered near railroad tracks near the Chechen town of Argun. In Tbilisi, a taxi driver stopped by the police in May 2003 was found with leaded boxes containing one hundred strontium-90 and cesium-137. In Belarus, customs officers intercepted 26 radioactive cargo in 1996-2003. The former head of the IAEA, Mohamed ElBaradei, said back in 2003 that the use of such a bomb would not necessarily lead to a large number of deaths, but “could provoke panic and change.” public life in connection with radiation, which is exactly what terrorists are trying to achieve.”

Thus, the use of a “dirty bomb” is already a factor of both politics and blackmail. At the end of last year, Islamic State militants announced that they were ready to create nuclear weapons from radioactive materials (according to some sources, up to 40 kg of uranium) seized from the university in the Iraqi city of Mosul. And they threatened to blow up their infernal machine in London or another big city Europe. The English press noted then that British explosives expert Hamayun Tariq was seen among the militants threatening to detonate this bomb in Europe. In 2003 CEO British counterintelligence MI5 Eliza Manningham-Buller called such a terrorist attack in one of the major Western cities “a matter of time.” But if the threats of IS militants can still be considered hypothetical, then the words of the head of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine are a much more real threat. A huge amount of radioactive materials are located in Ukraine absolutely legally. And creating a “dirty bomb” will not be difficult. If we remember that about a year ago, Ukrainian passionary Yulia Tymoshenko also spoke out for the use of nuclear weapons against Russia, then in fact we can talk about the fact that Alexander Turchynov and Yulia Tymoshenko publicly support nuclear terrorism at the state level.
