Fifty

nations’ leaders in Washington will focus today on the suddenly urgent prospect

of terrorists getting their hands on so-called “dirty bombs.”

Their

nuclear summit was planned before last week’s jihadist attacks in Brussels and

the revelation that the perpetrators may have planned to gain access to, and

disperse, deadly radioactive materials.

The

fact that they could have done so in a number of ways – perhaps by kidnapping a

nuclear scientist, getting inside medical facilities or  nuclear reactors – means we’re dealing with

literally ticking time-bombs. 

We

can only hope that President Obama and the other summiteers will focus their

efforts on trying to devise realistic and effective measures for countering

such threats – and dispense with a fool’s errand that has long topped their

agenda: ridding the world of nuclear weapons, starting with ours.
