According to the Fox News story, portable nuclear
bombs can range from suitcase- (or backpack) size to
"the size of two footlockers".  Backpack bombs (not
one-coffee-can bombs) have a 3-5 kiloton yield.

It's far more important that we worry about this improbable possiblity, than do anything about the environment, education, the job market, or corruption in politics. We can really terroize the voters with images of Arabs with suitcase nukes. But actually do anything about global warming? Especially when the USA is the main cause? That's unpatriotic.
