MI6 confirms bin Laden's nukes
Pakistani scientists advising on weaponization
MI6, Britain's secret intelligence service, has identified six Pakistani scientists working in Iran's nuclear bomb program who have been "advising al-Qaida on how to weaponize fissionable materials it has now obtained."
Both high-level MI6 and CIA sources have confirmed the scientists would only have been allowed to assist al-Qaida with the authority of Iran's unpredictable President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
The MI6 report to other intelligence services followed bin Laden's threats last week to unleash a new wave of terror - with Britain and the United States his prime targets.
Former CIA operative David Dastych, a G2B contributor and one of the agency's experts on nuclear terrorism, said: "The traffic in nuclear materials is ongoing and growing."
