ok 1st thing is this thing is a joke, if i was a soldier and i found out my country and my family were dead i would not pack up and go home i would fight to the death, no hostages, shoot first ask questions later

Oh my God!! Who fucking cares about that part?! Whoop dee doo, he offended the "honor" of the soldiers. I think the nuclear weapons part is a LITTLE more important.

The interview is phony. This was on Fox News a long time ago. FN called up Al-Jazeera and asked them to confirm, and Al-Jazeera said it = teh fake.
Some jackass with too much time to hash out details wrote this up. It should be noted that this interview is old (I read it some time in January, I believe, so at least that old). Since Jan 1, New York has seen 17 days that would match their "optimal" conditions for detonation. LA has seen 24 days, Atlanta has seen 16 days, and DC has seen 22 days.
So yeah, this is bullshit.

Guys, it's fake because the person interviewed doesn't exist and even Al-Jazeera said they never interviewed the person, and if they did, this would have been in the news a long time ago.

The interview could be fake but the plan could be quite real. Think abuot it, see how it easy to obtain weapons of mass destruction or dirty bombs and spread the whole population with viruses. If you were the person with the right connections and the ambition which Osama and his network have they could pull this into reality. No jokes about it. Its a very serious thing.

Okay, first of all, let me address the crop-dusting thing.
All I have to say is: oOo:
Virii are very fragile things. Most of the time they need a very specific environment in which to sustain life. Smallpox is relatively robust, however, it can't last more than 30 or so seconds airborne before it dies. Now, in order for a crop duster to spread smallpox, the virus would first need to be placed in a solution which can be turned into a mist. This would dilute the potency of the virus. So be generous, and say now the stuff can last 20 seconds airborne. Also keep in mind that the aircraft would require refrigeration units to keep the solution cool until distribution. Now, a crop duster would carry enough to entirely cover only two blocks in LA. Two blocks. To maximize infection, those would need to be two VERY highly populated blocks. Placing them in between skyscrapers. So, you're talking about flying a crop duster into a city, through skyscrapers, near enough to the ground that the mist would reach the ground before being whisked away by a breeze (approx 10ft altitude max). So there is one ignorant rumor dispelled.
As for "dirty" bombs. Yes, they would be terrible, but not devastating. Most of the major cities around the US now have very highly trained HAZMAT teams to deal with things such as this. Probably the only deaths would result from the actual explosion itself.
As for buying nukes.. perhaps I may have believed this.. until they said they had what.. seven of them? At 800 million a pop? Granted the Saudis funding these things are rich, but that is 5.6 billion dollars. Someone would have noticed those types of transactions, period. So, while I don't dispute the fact that terrorists may well have a nuke, I do find it ridiculous to believe they have seven of them.
Another thing which gives this away as some ignorant person trying to be cool is the mention of cell phone or seismic detonation. Bahahahaha. First of all, in any major city, there are so many cell phones, and other devices which bleed into the cell phone frequencies, that pure mathematical logic would necessitate the triggering of one of the nukes by this point. As far as seismic detonation.. hah. Non-existant. Why? Because the San Andreas fault would have already nuked the west coast by now.
