Dirty Bomb? Chem Attack? Bioweapon? Require vacating a neighborhood? No. Read that again. I said NO.

Chemical weapons are not weapons of mass destruction they are "Area denial," and terror weapons that don’t destroy anything. When you leave the area you almost always leave the risk. That’s the difference; you can leave the area and the risk.

Chem weapons are not gasses, they are vapors and/or air borne particles. Chem must be delivered in sufficient quantity to kill/injure, and that defines when/how it’s used. So open a window. There problem solved.

I already explained dirty bombs. See post #1,126.

And bio weapons, well, if it is as easy as the TV makes it sound, why has Saddam Hussein spent twenty years and millions of dollars trying to get it right? If you’re a clean person and you eat well and are active you’re gonna live.

Even the 'little' stuff will inflict short-term terror, enough to make them sorry they even entertained the thought.

Who would get the spanking after a stunt like this?

So you think they are going BIG this time around?

A suitcase nuke or a few multi-MT warheads that have gone AWOL from the former Soviet Union would do the trick.

I certainly hope the folks in the know and in charge of preventing something like this aren't too busy looking in the wrong direction.
