Why is the government buying 7 million bottles of potassium Iodide? What do they know that we don"t?

I heard on short wave this morning that the government is buying up 7 million doses of potassium Iodide, Are they expecting a attack soon on power plants? Or is it because of India and Pakistan? Or maybe Israel and Iraq? And by the way thats just enough Iodide for the washington crowd!!!!!

You can bet the government is NOT paying bottom dollar like Wal-Mart does. Remember the $45 hammers etc.

Talk to you later.
