This cyanide amounts to a WMD. In fact, it amounts to an almost endless amount of WMDs. It could be the source of attacks for decades or even a century or more.

Ninety-nine percent of the trucks crossing the border with Mexico are not inspected. A similar amount of the cargo containers coming in at our nation's docks are not inspected.

This nation is a prime target for terrorism. Evidently that hasn't sunk in yet. Until a major attack involving thousands or tens of thousands of deaths occurs from across the Mexican border, our leaders can pleade plausible deniability. Welcome to that scenario.

If whoever took those chemicals wants them in the US, they are most likely already here --days ago. The border is far from secure, they could bring it very easily with a shipment of cocaine ---and Mexican drug cartel types wouldn't hesitate for one moment to do that for someone.

Probably how a lot of the illegals get here.
