I wonder if very many Americans really realize that using any one of these three things would cause severe problems for Americans who lived through such an attack. When people think of WMD, I think they think of nuclear, but IMO, by far the most dangerous situation would be biological WMD....Nukes could wipe out entire states, and millions of people. But Bio weapons have the potential to cause huge problems for not only this country, but world wide trouble....

Many people screamed loudly when "no WMD" was found in Iraq....but those people and others have forgotten about the Chemicals that were used on the Kurds by Saddam....Bio weapons are small....who knows what the situation is on those....

The other side of the same coin is this - Massive use of WMDs (chemical, biological, nuclear) has the potential to rapidly change any of the equations.
