One thing potentially stronger, would be poison gas. Completely 100% wrong.

Okay, I admit I may be wrong. But keep in mind that 19 years ago, an accidental explosion in Bhopal, India at a Union Carbide pesticides factory released poison gas and 5,000 people died that night and a half million people were injured. Today 50,000 remain disabled from their injuries. This was from one single factory, one incident.

According to federal government sources, there are 123 chemical facilities nationwide that could kill at least one million people if they were attacked by terrorists. And some of these are in major American cities and can put 8 million lives at risk.

So I may be wrong. Just repeating some of what I've read elsewhere.

I've read similar things as well.

The threat is real and could be devastating -- the way to prevent it is exactly by recognizing it and foil it and prevent attacks, not by pretending there is no threat, as some are doing.

Please provide the exact source for that.

I have a feeling if you do it will be from the Northeast Stupidity Network or a similar site and of course their supposed "federal government sources" will unnamed.
