5 meter kill radius would be pretty awful in a crowded shopping mall...

I didn't say that the carnage wouldn't be terrible... Words mean something. Until recently, WMD referred to "chemical, biological, or nuclear." By this definition, we've found tens of thousands of tons of "WMDs" in Iraq...

This is yet another case of words having thei meaning stripped in order to accomplish some sort of political ends.
