ABC News: Seized Uranium Was Enriched Enough to Make Dirty Bomb: “Two Hungarians and a Ukrainian arrested in an attempted sale of uranium were peddling material believed to be from the former Soviet Union, and it was enriched enough to be used in a radiological ‘dirty bomb,’ police said Thursday. The three men, who were arrested Wednesday in eastern Slovakia and Hungary, were trying to sell about a pound of uranium in powder form, said First Police Vice President Michal Kopcik.”

Not good. You can be sure there is other nuclear material available for sale.
