Obama runs slap into Great Wall of Chinese no

Chinese president Hu Jintao said clearly after meeting US president Barack Obama in Beijing Tuesday, Nov. 17, that their governments disagree on tougher sanctions for Iran - or any other issue relating to the Islamic republic. DEBKAfile's sources report that this rebuff has led Washington's efforts to round up big power endorsement of harsh penalties for Iran's continued intransigence on its nuclear program, such as an embargo on refined petrol products and gasoline, have come to a dead end. The efficacy of unilateral American sanctions, the only non-military option still left to Washington, is questionable.

Secretary of state Hillary Clinton made a last-ditch bid Wednesday, Nov. 18, to scale China's negative wall, before the US president left for South Korea. She tried to talk the Chinese Vice Foreign Minister Dai Bingguo into at least issuing a Beijing statement on Iran. He refused outright.

The Chinese rejection followed a rebuff from Moscow in the form of a comment by Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov that it was premature to say that diplomatic efforts for defusing tensions over Iran's nuclear program had failed. He said it was too soon to talk about stepping up sanctions on Iran, if at all, so contradicting the supportive message Obama received from Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when they met in Singapore last week and agreed that time was running out for Iran to respond to international efforts to meet it halfway.

Tuesday, before Beijing and Moscow knocked sanctions on the head, Israeli PM Binyamin Netanyahu said optimistically that the Iranian nuclear issue should be left for the world powers and international community to deal with. In a few short hours, that option had melted away.

In the last 24 hours, Israelis have been too busy discussing the expansion of the Gilo neighborhood of Jerusalem to notice that their former and current governments, headed respectively by Ehud Olmert and Binyamin Netanyahu, have just suffered one of their biggest foreign policy defeats. They are now confronted with a most unwelcome dilemma.

The AP reported that "Six world powers will meet in Brussels to discuss what measures could be applied against Tehran for its refusal to halt its nuclear enrichment program, an EU official said Thursday. Friday's meeting will include the U.N. Security Council's permanent members - Britain, China, France, Russia and the U.S. - plus Germany, the official said on condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to disclose details of the gathering." http://bit.ly/1DXNXJ

World economic crash

FINANCIAL MELTDOWN

"As anticipated, the global financial system is now in free-fall. The bankruptcy of Lehman, the government take-over of Fannie/Freddie (essentially, a gov't takeover of the entire US mortgage market), the fire sale of Merrill Lynch (moments before it too went into free-fall), the expansion of Federal Reserve emergency lending into securities (which codifies its position as the only source of capital for big financial firms), the looming failure of AIG (the world's biggest insurance company), the impending failure of Washington Mutual (which will deplete the entire FDIC fund in one whack) all point to tougher times ahead.

The easily foreseen failure in the US/UK mortgage markets due to rampant corruption has now developed into a financial black swan that due to entanglements (connectivity), opacity, size, speed, and complexity is beyond the capacity of the US (and its allies) to control. It will get worse as the run on the massive (30 times larger than the US economy) shadow banking system begins in earnest.

To many, this developing situation will be uncharted territory. However, for those of us that have already embraced the trend lines, the roadmap for the next decade is increasingly clear.... (((And, no, you don't even wanna look. But you kinda have to.)))

Russia:

(Editor's note: Since this interview was conducted and posted, trading was suspended on Moscow's stock exchange amid sharp declines and furious efforts to boost Russia's banking sector.), Sept 18,08

RFE/RL: Writing in "The Moscow Times," you said on August 8 that Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin "made his greatest strategic blunder" and single-handedly "wiped out a half a trillion dollars of stock market value, stalled all domestic reforms, and isolated Russia from the outside world." Explain that stock-market loss part.

Anders Aslund: Well, what happens when you start an aggressive foreign policy is that you also start an aggressive foreign trade policy. And you block domestic economic reforms. And you sharply increase the political risk in your country. And UBS [United Bank of Switzerland] has assessed that this increase in the political risk means that stock prices should be 20 percent lower -- that's $300 billion right off there, off the stock market. The bond yields that are demanded now for loans to Russia are 2-3 percent higher than a month ago.

RFE/RL: You also write that, despite what happened in Georgia, the Russian economy has been headed for a slowdown for some time. Why?

Aslund: Well, it's at the end of a business cycle, the oil price has fallen by one-third, and the Russia economy suffers from massive overheating. So that's the time when you really need reform, and then Putin is turning his back on it.

RFE/RL: Russia has made it an official goal to reach half the U.S. per capita GDP by 2020. You don't think this is going to happen. Why not?

Aslund: I would say that I think that the most important [factor] is the combination of massive corruption and [the] inability to build infrastructure when the need is at its greatest. Russia today can't build motorways; they can't build pipelines. And they need some of them very badly. The traffic chaos in Moscow is just characteristic of the main problem in Russia today...

A wave of bittersweet melancholy has descended on the thousands of phishers, hackers and credit card swindlers inhabiting the computer crime supersite DarkMarket.ws. On Tuesday the site's operator, known as Master Splyntr, announced that he was shuttering the forum, which has hummed along for nearly three years as a premier vehicle of criminal commerce.

"[R]ecent events have proven that even in our best efforts to expel and deactivate the accounts of suspected LE [law enforcement], reporters, and security agents, it is obvious that we haven't been entirely successful," Splyntr wrote in a message on the site.

Chief among those recent events is last week's arrest of Cha0, a Turkish hacker -- and alleged kidnapper -- who served as one of DarkMarket's administrators. Cha0 was known for selling high-quality ATM-skimming hardware that crooks could affix to cash machines to grab debit card swipes and PINs. Turkish police arrested Cha0 on Friday, identifying him as one Cagatay Evyapan.

China:

Sept. 19 (Bloomberg) -- China's benchmark stock index rallied the most since the gauge was created in April 2005 after the government said will buy shares in three of the largest state-owned banks and scrapped the tax on equity purchases to halt a slide that erased $2.64 trillion of market value.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Feds:

All the various programs are designed to manage the liquidity in financial markets; that is, the amount of cash or near-cash equivalents that can be used for transactions, reserves or for lending. By increasing liquidity, the Fed and the central banks hope to prevent the seizing up of daily market operations because banks and other financial institutions are hoarding liquid assets.

In most cases, the Fed provides a liquid asset, such as cash or U.S. Treasurys, in exchange for less-liquid assets, such as agency bonds or mortgage-backed securities. Almost all the transactions are considered loans, with the Fed earning a profit on the transaction.

For a summary of the Fed's various programs, their terms and conditions, go to the New York Fed's site at www.ny.frb.org. Read more.

Here's a scorecard of what the Fed has done:

Federal funds rate: The Fed has lowered its target rate by 325 basis points from 5.25% to 2%. The fed funds rate is the rate banks charge each other for overnight loans to meet reserve requirements. The Fed can influence the rate by injecting or withdrawing money from the system via sales or purchases of Treasurys.

Repurchase agreements: The Fed flooded the financial system with $105 billion in cash on Thursday. The repurchase agreements allow primary dealers to sell Treasury bills, notes and bonds to the Fed on a temporary basis, and then repurchase them at the maturity of the agreement, either the next day or up to several weeks later. Reverse repos work just the opposite, with the Fed draining money from the system by temporarily buying Treasurys. By managing the daily money supply through repurchase agreements and reverse repos, the Fed's Open Market Desk can keep the federal funds rate near its target

Discount rate: Lowered by 400 basis points from 6.25% to 2.25% and extended the term from overnight to 90 days. As of Wednesday, banks had $33.4 billion in outstanding loans through the discount window. The discount rate is the rate the Fed charges banks for overnight loans from the Fed's discount window to meet reserve requirements. The Fed has tried to remove any stigma attached to borrowing from the discount window.

Primary Credit Dealer Facility: The Fed has opened up the discount window to primary dealers (including broker-dealers and investment banks) at similar terms and rates. As of Wednesday, the investment banks and dealers had $59.8 billion in outstanding loans, compared with none the week before. The loans are likely to help Lehman Bros. liquidate its assets, analysts said.

Term Auction Facility: The Fed has auctioned $150 billion in 28-day or 84-day loans of cash to commercial (depository) banks" in generally sound financial condition." The loans are fully collateralized by bonds, equities, asset-backed securities or commercial paper.

Term Securities Lending Facility: The Fed has auctioned $117.2 billion as of Wednesday in 28-day loans of government securities to primary dealers (including broker-dealers and investment banks), including $50 billion in options. The loans are fully collateralized by bonds, equities, asset-backed securities or commercial paper.

Security Lending: On Thursday, the Fed auctioned $17.4 billion of government securities on an overnight basis to primary dealers, fully backed by collateral. The auctions take place daily. On Monday, $28.5 billion was auctioned. For the week, the securities loans averaged $8.4 billion per day.

Foreign currency swaps: The Fed has offered to swap up to $247 billion in dollars against other currencies from other central banks that can then be auctioned into the markets, typically on an overnight or two-week maturity. As of Thursday, $88 billion in loans were outstanding at the central banks.

Bear Stearns: The Fed has taken on about $30 billion of Bear Stearns' assets as part of the fire-sale to JP Morgan. As of Sept. 17, the Fed's portfolio of former Bear Stearns assets was worth $29.4 billion.

American International Group: The Fed has offered to lend AIG up to $85 billion in exchange for a majority stake in the company. As of Wednesday, AIG had borrowed $28 billion.

Supplementary Financing Program: To boost the Fed's balance sheet, the Treasury announced it would hold special auctions of Treasury bills for the Fed's account. On Wednesday and Thursday, the Treasury auctioned $100 billion of short-term bills.

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac: The Treasury has seized control of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and has taken an equity stake in the companies. The impact of the seizure on the government's books has not been quantified

US$180 billion pumped into money markets
New Zealand Herald, New Zealand - 12 hours ago
The Federal Reserve, and central banks in Europe, Canada and Asia, pumped as much as US$180 billion into money markets on Thursday to combat shock waves ...

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Money markets have always been considered as a liquid asset. Freezing or closing them

is very serious. Money markets are marked to the market and have always been $1 a share.

Some funds marking them to the market are coming up short of the Dollar.

Cash may be king. This is going to get VERY very UGLY.

Big Russian flotilla led by Admiral Kuznetsov carrier heads for Syrian port

DEBKAfile Exclusive Report

Russia's Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier heads for Mediterranean


As the West awaits Moscow’s threatened reprisal for the treaty installing American missile interceptors at Redzikowo, on Poland’s Baltic coast – signed in Warsaw Wednesday - the Kremlin is striking back in the Middle East – hence Russian president Dimitry Medvedev’s honeyed words of reassurance to Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert in a call he made to Jerusalem Wednesday, Aug. 20.

At the Black Sea resort of Sochi, Syrian president Bashar Assad told reporters Thursday, Aug. 21, that he is considering a Russian request to deploy missiles in his country in view of Russian-Western tensions over the Georgian conflict, which he said had polarized East and West anew.

I have been tracing and tracking a Terror financing unit.

They are raising and exporting money from USA and around the world.

It is a close knit group with at least 5 levels of supervision.

My lead started in the Islamic Army in Iraq, which I traced to a Pashtun connection in the terrorist financing and donation arm and tracked that to the USA and back to Lebanon and from there over to Georgia. It is a combined Taliban, al Qaeda run operation.

The central unit is operating out of Lebanon and has operatives in USA collecting funds and moving them to Lebanon.

They are buying/renting realestate in Georgia ( location of the latest Russian activity ), developing terrorist capabilities in Georgia. And at least one member is spending the donated money on porno sites.

This group has members in Georgia, Paki border, USA, and Lebanon that I am aware of, I have four IP's and related info. And connections in Iraq and Jordan.

Government inquiries welcome.

All are running extensive security and using elite proxys, and have been in operation for at least 5 months.

Paradigm Intel:
al Qaeda's move into Georgia doesn't bode well for the GWOT, expect al Qaeda to run false flag ops in Georgia to keep trouble stirred up between Georgia, Russia and USA.

Cyber war, Cyber attacks, Russia

Cyber war, Cyber attacks, Russia.
By Gerald Internet Anthropologist Think Tank
Aug 13, 08

Georgia has been under heavy cyber attack even before the out break of military activities.

Some of the web sites have been moved to Atlanta, Georgia - Tulip Systems, Inc.
They are better suited to handling the traffic volume, our sources there say last night was the heaviest so far. And Russian servers are being cut off from the WWW. They will be releasing a list of attacking servers and PC's.

90% of the attacks are coming from Russia and the other 10% from the rest of the world.

Other sources indicate while there has been a cease fire, the Internet attacks have not let up.

The paradigm fitting Russia's actions indicates Russia is not done, and will leave behind a "Peace keeping force. And call for the current Georgian President to resign.

The rest of the paradigm suggest other Russian military operations in other break-away nations.
Latvia is at risk. Russia has been handing out "passports" for there, thereby giving them an excuse to intervene to protect "their people, Russians".

Another paradigm this suggest is one we have pointed out before, how an WWW attack is a level above WMD.

GWOT weakest link

There are economic sanctions, and ECONOMIC SANCTIONS.
Cutting a country off from the Internet would be a economic crippling blow.
And we have seen the pieces activated piece meal which point to the possibility of shutting down the WWW, for months.

Cutting Iran off from the Internet could bring their banking centers to its knees.
And would cause problems even selling their oil.
Their infrastructure would crumble slowly over time but it would cripple them.

It could also be crippling if it happened to the world, if the WWW went down,
Bring it back up would also re-activate the bots that would be causing the attack.
Causing it to go back down again.

It would take considerable time to work out some work around for the bot attacks problem.
As no one has done any contingency planning for the WWW to go down. Thru bots and physical attacks.

There was a DNS bug which created a skeleton key across all Web sites. This has been under played in the news, SLQ injection has help create the most infected number of computers on the WWW in its short history.Security Epidemic: SLQ INJECTION

And the number of new vectors for infection races far ahead of the security the big Security companys sell us. Race to Root.

CYBERWARS's Pearl Harbour

Talk about 5GW.

Our Cyber war capabilities paradigm.
Russia's Cyber war capablities are the most sophisticated in the World ( assuming they inherited the RBN, Russian Business net ) but pale in compares to China's volume of bots.
USA leads in penetration/physical attacks, but their bots are virtually non-existent.
I think we, the think tank, have more bots than the US government, and we have BSU's available.

Lots of work to do.

eight years in Russian prison, HACKING

Perps
Ivan Maksakov, Alexander Petrov, and Denis Stepanov

Status
All three are guests of the Russian penal system, sentenced to eight years at hard labor and a 100,000 ruble fine

Dossier
Looking to make a little extra money while at college in 2003, Ivan Maksakov, then 22, devised an inventive, entrepreneurial scheme that probably sounded good at the time: He created a botnet to engage in DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks and then blackmailed online gambling sites based in the U.K., threatening to take the sites down during major sporting events.

However, Maksakov -- a student at the Balakov Institute of Engineering, Technology, and Management -- couldn't anticipate that the Russian government, looking to demonstrate its resolve in dealing with cybercriminals, would make an example of him.

The botnet, based in Houston, was directed to launch DDoS attacks against the U.K.-based bookmaking Web sites and online casinos only if Maksakov's demands weren't met. According to Russian news reports, Maksakov, along with co-conspirators Alexander Petrov and Denis Stepanov, attacked nine Web sites

The Balakov City Court, Saratov region, has sentenced to eight years in colony with a strict regime and 100,000-ruble penalty each of three hackers of Russia accused of extortion, causing material damage and establishing and applying hostile software.

jEEZE one year in a Russian Prison would have been enough.

He was tired. It is a long flight from the one part of country to the capital. They arrived to meet him, at Sheremet'evo. He looked over their heads.

- Supposing somebody else? - one of them asked, they call him - the mister Z. His tricky smile sometimes really irritates Alexander. Mister Z has created a mighty things in the past, but for now, he retired. As well as all others from the group. Alexander doesn't answer and pointed on others.
- I wouldn't say I am like to see most of us.
- Just leave it, 2002 is over, - said one of them - lame man with a small cane. He smiled just like the mister Z. Mister Z doesn't like it, because they were no friends and more - almost enemies.

13 February 2007, somewhere in Moscow.

- It is wonderful, - she said. She was standing right with window and can see a vista of the part of Moscow Kremlin.
- I saw photos, - Alexander doesn't looked into the window and moves to table where heap of equipment were located. Two notebooks (AMD Turion), several hard drives with overall capacity up to 1 Tb and a lot of wires.
- You lost all of your romantic, - she ascertained the fact.
- And you are not? - he asked by the way turning notebook power. The Windows 2003 R2 welcome screen appeared. Hard drives were blinking with blue lights. She moved and watched on login. R2 has launched, and restored network connection. He started cmd.exe and typed

ping http://******cops.com (actual name hidden, ZHadum remark)

They wait few second. Packets doesn't come. 50% lost.
He switched window and launched Miranda. They all were here. Waiting for assistance.
-Huh, - she told and has gone to the bathroom.
V: I'm getting 50% packet lost during ping
Z: checking from outside
Z: wait...
Z: 75% are lost
V: what is the peak of bandwidth?
A: around 700 M/bits per second
L: it is jumping through
Z: growing baby
V: can we locate the source of attack?
Z: suppose to be no for now :)
K: this attack isn't managed, fully automatic
Z: sync-flood and teardrop, guess
V: doesn't like that it is working, I'm still able to ping them
K: and what we suppose to be do? storm doesn't answers, it is fully automatic
Z: depends on the number of bots, guess this is not a network limit
L: more to go :)
He logged out and started Opera browser. Then typed a web resource address and begins wait, it was predictable slow. Network still hold the line. Alexander smiled and turned off R2.

1X February, the same place.
"All your base are belongs to us", lalala
He and she laughed a lot. Even mister L enjoyed such approach.
- Remembers old MSDOS times, - he said.
Alexander has noded and again start laughing.
On the Miranda screen they can see a last message
Peak bandwidth rate is 860 M/Bits per second

1X February, the same place.
"We are sorry, maintenance problems". F5 was pressed and site has been resolved to 127.0.0.1.
Network was almost dead, bandwidth was around 1G/bit.
- Can rdbot give the same results? - asked she (she always interested in network security) from mister L.
- If they will gain more resources it is possible to shutdown whole target network.
- It is depends on what kind of hardware they have, - noted Z. - If they are rich... you can continue.
- Guys and girls did you read the stuff they are posting around? - Alexander smiled. - They tracked several bots and went to the Moscow.
- Bugaga, - said mister Z. - They can reach this result with a lot of other captured bots.
- Computer Police is upcoming - she was in the high spirits state. "Computer Police" was a something unreal and unknown for this country, well because most of it members were totally lame and nobody doesn't really wanned to do his job, all doesn't matters.
- Thats a Storm problems, - mister L said.
- Attack strength will decrease its rate while bots will die - added mister L. - Three days maximum.
- Storm Manipulation stage complete - said Alexander and turned notebook power off."

Ruskies move out of Iran

Russians employed at Iran’s Bushehr nuclear reactor suddenly depart in a body, according to local Arab sources

October 1, 2007, 11:01 AM (GMT+02:00)

The Khorramshar News Agency, which is published by the ethnic Arab underground of Iran’s oil-rich Khuzestan, reported early Oct. 1 that the entire staff of Russian nuclear engineers and experts employed in building the nuclear reactor at Bushehr had abruptly packed their bags Friday, Sept. 28, and flew back to Russia. The agency’s one-liner offers no source or explanation. DEBKAfile have obtained no corroboration of its report from any other source.

The story appears to have originated with the ethnic Arabs who live near the reactor or who come in contact with its Russian staff. If true, DEBKAfile can offer three hypothetical scenarios to account for the Russians’ precipitate departure:

1. Another crisis has cropped up in the patchy Russian-Iranian dealings over the Bushehr reactor. This is unlikely because Russian president Vladimar Putin is due for a high-profile visit to Tehran on Oct. 16, when he plans to sign a series of nuclear accords with the Islamic Republic. Furthermore, Moscow, like Beijing, stands foursquare behind Iran’s efforts to delay harsher sanctions for its continued uranium enrichment. Only this week, the two powers gained Iran two to three months’ grace by forcing a delay in the UN Security Council session that was to have approved a third round of sanctions.

2. Moscow or Tehran has been tipped off that a US or Israeli attack is imminent on the Bushehr plant and Iran’s other nuclear installations and acted to whip Russian personnel out of harm’s way.

3. Moscow has learned that an Iranian pre-emptive attack is imminent against American targets in Iraq and the Persian Gulf and/or Israel.

Aside from these hypothetical scenarios, DEBKAfile’s Iranian sources report that the Khorramshar News Agency keeps its ear to the ground on happenings in Bushehr, because it is claimed by Khuzistan separatists as Arab land which they will fight to liberate from Iranian “occupation.”

They did this once before over payments

Intel and ops round up

BELGRADE, Jun 12 (IPS) - Weapons from the Balkans wars of the 1990s are beginning to arm conflict in Iraq and Afghanistan, well-placed officials have revealed.

A vital element of the Dayton Peace Agreements that ended the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina in 1995 was the destruction of huge caches of heavy weapons, artillery, small arms and ammunition.

The 39,000-strong Stabilisation Forces led by the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) until December 2004, followed by the 6,300 European Union Forces (EUFOR) sought to re-establish peace and ensure security. And this meant destruction of remaining weapons.

But these weapons have headed in other directions. Bosnian daily Nezavisne Novine and Croatian daily Vecernji List have quoted a former Austrian member of EUFOR, identified as "Major Erwin K" as saying that under United States pressure stockpiled arms and ammunition were ordered sold to Afghanistan and Iraq after 9/11.

At least 290,000 rifles were sold to private firms, mostly based in the United States. The guns were finally meant to be supplied to "local security forces" in Afghanistan and Iraq, the military source was quoted as saying.

Moscow Releases Nuclear Fuel for Iran's Bushehr Reactor

June 12, 2007, 1:12 PM (GMT+02:00)
Iran's Bushehr atomic reactor can start rolling with Russian fuel

DEBKA-Net-Weekly 304 disclosed on June 8 that the week before the G8 opened in Germany, Moscow released the long-withheld nuclear fuel for Iran's atomic reactor in Bushehr. It was delivered 24 hours before Israel launched its new military imaging satellite Ofeq-7, bringing forward the Iranian threat to Israel, according to DEBKAfile's military sources. One immediate result has been the stiffening of Tehran's negative posture, sparking what nuclear watchdog director Mohammed ElBaradei called Monday, June 11, a confrontation that needs to be urgently defused.

As DEBKA-Net-Weekly reported, special nuclear containers were loaded on a train in the yard of the manufacturers JSC Novosibirsk Chemical Concentrates Plant on June 2-3. They contained two types of nuclear fuel, WER-440 and WER-1000.

The special train then headed out of Novosibirsk to Astrakhan on the Caspian Sea, 2,000 km away. There, the containers awaited loading aboard a Russian ship destined for Bandar Anzili, the Iranian military port on the Caspian shore. According to our Iranian sources, a fleet of Iranian trucks was waiting at the other end outside Bandar Anzili port to transport the nuclear fuel and drive it slowly and carefully to Bushehr, a distance of 850km, arriving June 10 or 11.

But DEBKAfile's sources added the journey was interrupted by holdups ordered by the Kremlin in an episode which also laid bare the interdependence of Iran's nuclear industry and Tehran's program for arming Syria for war with Israel with the latest Russian munitions.

A few days before the nuclear fuel left the Siberian factory, Tehran delivered the sum of $327m for a fresh delivery of Russian missiles to Syria. Iran pledged another $438m for further arms consignments before the fuel cargo was allowed to go forward. Putin then ordered the cargo to be loaded at Astrakhan, but await delivery in port until payment was made.

DEBKAfile picks up the story Tuesday, June 12, and reports that Iran duly deposited the money and the ship was permitted to set sail and cross the Caspian Sea to Iran.

A Muslim extremist group threatened to behead female TV broadcasters if they don't don strict Islamic dress, leaving the women terrified and marking a further downward spiral in Gaza's anarchy.

The threat to "cut throats from vein to vein" was delivered by the Swords of Truth, a fanatical group that has previously claimed responsibility for bombing Internet cafes and music shops. The new threat was the first time the organization targeted a specific group of people, and adds to a growing climate of extremism, fear and suspicion in Gaza.

A British company has been closed down after being caught in an apparent attempt to sell black-market weapons-grade uranium to Iran and Sudan, The Observer can reveal.

Anti-terrorist officers and MI6 are now investigating a wider British-based plot allegedly to supply Iran with material for use in a nuclear weapons programme. One person has already been charged with attempting to proliferate 'weapons of mass destruction'.

During the 20-month investigation, which also involved MI5 and Customs and Excise, a group of Britons was tracked as they obtained weapons-grade uranium from the black market in Russia. Investigators believe it was intended for export to Sudan and on to Iran.

A number of Britons, who are understood to have links with Islamic terrorists abroad, remain under surveillance. Investigators believe they have uncovered the first proof that al-Qaeda supporters have been actively engaged in developing an atomic capability. The British company, whose identity is known to The Observer but cannot be disclosed for legal reasons, has been wound up.

A Customs and Excise spokesman said: 'We continue to investigate allegations related to the supply of components for nuclear programmes including related activities of British nationals.'
