Russia's customs service said Friday it had seized radioactive sodium-22, an isotope that is used in medical equipment but has no weapons use, from the luggage of a passenger planning to fly from Moscow to Tehran.

A big part of what we do for the DNDO here in the US. The Russians will need to source it and figure out what the motive was.

Idiots like these are another reason why I'm currently 6000 miles from home. :td

Hmmm. Hard for me to believe these guys aren't in cahoots with each other.

Maybe someone thought they were bringing U235 to Iran and was being tracked to see where it would go?

Iran has tons of this stuff, or stuff like it.....the guy was doing it for his own reasons...
