Ah, yes, remember when it was difficult to get your hands on nails and ball bearings and rat poison? The good old days when you couldn’t find backpacks, suitcases, or fertilizer. Things were so peaceful then. What have we done?
Gee, I wonder what could POSSIBLY be a strong and smart way to limit the mobility of terrorists in today’s world? Anybody? How about just one first, obvious action?
Teacher, call on me, I know! Ban cars? Make people strip to get on trains and planes? What do I win??
[Truly, I believe we are ready to live in a planet sans Molenbeek.]
Stand with them against whom, Hilary? You can’t even name the enemy. Terrorism is a tactic. Who is the enemy?
May I borrow this for my tagline? You’re a genius.
Amen.
If you know what to look for and right formula.( I DON"T how to do it!)You can go to any grocery store and buy the makings for a bomb.
Yes. Haber's nitrogen fixation process made fertilizer cheap and plentiful. But it also made explosives cheap and plentiful.
Many historians claim that the process helped lengthen the war because the British blockade had cut off Germany's previous source of fixed nitrogen (saltpeter from Chile, of all things).
Not to mention those European gun restrictions. Those worked so well for Paris. Right???
I taught chemistry for awhile before moving on to physics (safer labs there). Anyway, now and again a student would approach me and ask if such-and-such would explode if they did such-and-such to it.
I'd always so no, even though their info was usually basically correct. So, yep, the info is out there.
This was way before 9/11, so I'm quite sure there was no terrorist angle in all that. I think they were more influenced by those old Roadrunner cartoons. Today, who knows?
MacGyver could build one out of toothpicks and sugar-free gum!

Merci bien mon chèrie.
Some thinkers (SF authors) have anticipated and extrapolated the global effort to control every single thing. The best science oriented fiction often placed human culture under the microscope, and in truth, offered us an early warning system.

If these were always Trump supporters doing these bombings, the media would blame Trump supporters.
Explosives? If WWII synthetic fuel, then Fisher-Tropsch.
So far, hillary and obama are bending over in solidarity, not standing, with Europe.
I thought I remembered that bit from Connections by James Burke.
Great book.
yeah I know. I have to study some more on the sandbox thread.
Why thank you!
