    Uranium even highly enrichened is a totaly stupid dirty bomb. Its just not radioactive enough to be a problem. Its far easier and more efficient to break into a hospital or university lab and steal highly active isotopes.

    Whats worrying is that the enrichment is so high, they need to find out where this uranium is from and make sure nothing else is lost.
