There would be no environmental disaster. We have weapons that would vaporize any bio/chem agents that were there. But even if we didn't, the ocean itself would so dilute anything as to render it harmless.

I read about this yesterday in the thread piasa linked. Having slept on the matter, this makes no sense. With all of our missile capabilities, why would these ships essentially just sit there?

IMO, our news organizations are correct to go slow with this story.

the only problem with vaporizing these ships is if they have, Nuke's on board,
that would be a big oops on our part
I would imagine our seals are ready, willing, and able to take care of this job.
