In a detailed response with some non-sequiturs and remarkable generalizations on Tue, 31 Aug 2004 16:21:13 +0200, "Emmanuel Gustin" wrote: .... The potential for destruction of WMD is routinely overrated, especially for biological and chemical weapons, by people who ignore the problem of distributing such agents over the intended victims. Wolfowitz probably did so intentionally, others may have done so out of simple ignorance. The same applies for 'dirty bombs'. Nevertheless, I agree that there is a very serious threat. I spent a lot of years of my life in the business of planned delivery of WMD and prepped for the defense against them. The "overrating" is quite realistic. You don't want to experience them. I'm curious as to the extent of your planning for the delivery of chemical and biological weapons. I'll agree that nuclear weapons are not overrated, but disagree as to chemical and biological. Simply including those with nuclear weapons in the blanket term 'WMD' overrates them a consequence I fear of general ignorance of the specific natures of all three and an inability by many to graps the enormity of the destructive power of nuclear weapons. -- FF |
