No problem.
I had this discussion with someone the other night. My feeling is that anything (even household items) that can be mixed to kill 20-80,000 is a WMD.
Fertilizer was used in the OKC bombing but that didn't make it less than a WMD, but maybe I'm using the term too loosely.
Anyway, stay well. It's always good to see your posts. You wrote an excellent one the other day.

...
Too easy ... by that, I mean, never mix ammonia and bleach (or worse, pool chemicals) together. Chlorine gas is liberated. That is acknowledged to be the "chemical weapon" first used by the Germans in WWI (I think it killed more of them than the enemy) but very few military experts would classify ammonia and bleach as WMD precursors today.
Not too many would truly classify an abacus or slide rule as a computer, either, or a horse or ramp as labor-saving devices ... Ahh - ain't the progress of technology great!

Oh, thanks for the compliment about that post the other day. It is amazing how much we are able to help each other comprehend things here at FR, and that was simply my day for doing the helping.
I'm always intrigued by the way some other posts are totally uncommented on by the person addressed... such as my post#30 this thread. Can't help but wonder which of the several most likely reasons is in effect at those times.

Hmm. I just went back and read #30. I don't know enough to comment which is why I didn't say anything. LOL

Personally, I often simply don't have the time to respond to about 75% of the posts I do have a response to. And, that's not counting the ones I make note of or save but have nothing to add to. I don't think a lack of response means anything in particular.

It is my understanding that the neutron bomb would cause minimal damage to structures while causing a great deal of destruction to any living thing (except cockroaches) from radiation.

[C]ould have wiped out 80,000 people . . . Upon exploding, the truck bombs would have released a toxic cloud that would have extended for three miles over AmmanThis is unlikely. I seriously doubt that these yahoos could make an effective chemical attack that would be this devastating, and I'll bet the talk of nerve gas will turn out to be false (if they had it would this be the way they would use it?). Probably just industrial chemicals no more likely to be this destructive than an industrial accident or train wreck. It's like those news stories about police finding volatile chemicals in drug makers houses: "it woudda taken out half a city block!"

***plotted in Iraq with Jordanian militant Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi, a close associate of Osama bin Laden***
These lunie tunes might pull this off once; but the world outrage [sans Gaul, of course] would be such that Bashir Assad and the Iranian Mullahs - if proven complicit - would immediately receive their 72 dead virgins...

Oh yeah... didn't the U.S. media settle that issue? there was no al Qaeda in Iraq?
Oh yeah, also... CBS doesn't have 'news'... only propaganda.

The threat of terrorism is greatly exaggerated.
There were no weapons of mass destruction.
There is no link between al Qaeda and Iraq.
Rap music is full of poetry and we must listen.
I was wounded by gooks flying from my butt.
I do not own any SUVs, those're the family's.
I didn't throw my medals before I threw them.
Hitlery Butch and I share the same hairdresser.
Do you know who I am--my business not yours.

In a practical sense, you can't radiate the entire Middle East. Oil still needs to be drilled and processed.
Of course the oil fields must be protected, guys, but Surgical Nukes can remove a lot of opposition. Remember, nobody actually LIVES in the oil fields.

I've always felt that Damascus and Mecca would be ultimately destroyed, not from a Religious standpoint, but from a Militarily Strategic standpoint.
It only makes sense. Cut off the head, and the snake dies. I appreciate your comments..............FRegards
