Chertoff and Homeland inSecurity

Michelle Malkin really rips into Homeland Security Chief Michael Chertoff in her most recent Hot Air Vent.

I can't really blame her though, the guy isn't one to inspire confidence, especially after insulting every American who wants him to do his job, enforce our existing immigration laws and close our borders.

Especially in light of this recent story from World Net Daily:

A nuclear terrorist attack on the U.S. is better than an even bet in the next 10 years, says a former assistant secretary of defense and author of a book on the subject.

"Based on current trends, a nuclear terrorist attack on the United States is more likely than not in the decade ahead," says Graham Allison, director of the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government and author of "Nuclear Terrorism: The Ultimate Preventable Catastrophe."

Allison, who has testified before Congress on the subject, says the illicit economy for narcotics and illegal alien trafficking "has built up a vast infrastructure that terrorists could exploit" in delivering a nuclear weapon to its target in the U.S.

Al-Qaida, which has threatened to launch an "American Hiroshima" attack on the U.S., remains Allison's No. 1 suspect to pull off such a mission.

Now that doesn't exactly make me happy when people like Michael Chertoff and Alberto Gonzales are responsible for our safety.
