Some time yesterday, IRRC, Cindy published a link to a story about how Scotland Yard prevented a nerve gas attack against Parliament recently. I have not seen anything in the MSM on this and not too much here on FR. I think I saw one thread with a very minimal number of posts. This is a HUGE story with potential ramifications here on home soil. Sarin ain't something you whip up in your garage, it would take a fairly sophisticated lab and hardware to do this. IMHO, it would take the resources of a nation-state to produce a device to be used in a terror attack, even if it was a piece of military ordnance, like a landmine or artillery shell. Identifying an actual nation whose chemical weapon is used against us gives us a viable nuke target coordinate.

Good point, ExSoldier.

re your post no. 3051, here are the 2001 and 2005 articles:

FOX NEWS.com (London - THE SUNDAY TIMES): "UK: AL QAEDA PLOT FOILED" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "This weekend a senior officer disclosed that the thwarted plot mentioned in the document involved a gas or chemical "dirty bomb" attack against parliament. "The House of Commons was one of their targets as well as the Tube," he said. "They were planning to use chemicals, a dirty bomb and sarin gas. They looked at all sorts of ways of delivering it.") (August 21, 2005)

News.TELEGRAPH.co.uk: "BIN LADEN BRITISH CELL PLANND GAS ATTACK ON EU PARLIAMENT" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A six-strong terror cell funded by the Saudi fugitive planned to kill all 625 Euro-MPs, and scores of officials, by releasing sarin gas into the parliament building.") (September 16, 2001)

I have not heard about it here in the western states.

To admit that the terrorists have Sarin gas, would mean
admitting that the war might be needed to keep the terrorists busy.......
