Report that National Security Council is evaluating explosive effect of loaded 757 /767 aircraft to see if they qualify as weapons of mass destruction. Appears that explosive power is equivalent to some small tactical nuclear devices, therefore, WMD have been used.

Evidently, based on various treaties, this clears the way for U.S. to use dispproportionate nuclear response, and still be within conventions of war as understood by our allies.

I am not predicting this, but it appears that this option may be on the table.

Or this may be a disinformation ploy to scare certain nations into cooperating.

Or both.
