"bomb with deadly viruses"

They have used bombers with disease in Israel to spread the diseases. Note that when a bus is bombed in Israel, all the rescue workers will have on plastic gloves.

I had the thought that the bomb, could mean a balloon, or other type of object that would break if thrown or dropped.

As for the water, the Arizona Department of Health warned of the danger that vials of germs could be dumped into our local water supplies. Here it is in storage tanks of 10,000 to 50,000 gallon size, and smaller.

I was at the Golden Valley Board meeting when the letter was read, back in the 80's when the Olympics was in Los Angeles.

I can imagine that it has not changed today.

I think that there are germs today, that a small amount goes a long way.

But I am willing for you to be correct.

The nails and screws used in the dirty bombs, may be thrown clear of the heat and they are what have been dipped in the poison.

At one point, didn't they have a suicide bomber blow himself up and he had vials of AIDS infected blood strapped to his body? The idea being that besides the death wrought by actual blast, the resultant abrasions and cuts might introduce the AIDS virus into the system.

The nails and screws in the Palestinian bombs are often laced with warfarin (heparin) to ensure the woulds caused will bleed heavily instead of coagulating normally.

Yes- didn't they somehow have aids tainted blood in an explosive device?
