| Al-Qaeda still seeking bioweapons |
| 2005-01-02 |
| THE international pursuit of Osama Bin Laden has not stopped his Al-Qaeda network from seeking to build weapons of mass destruction, senior US officials said last week. Recent intelligence indicates that the group is turning its attention to chemical and biological weapons. Despite severe technical obstacles to the launch of terrorist biowarfare, Washington believes Bin Laden has become convinced that only a WMD attack would be sufficient punishment for the US-led invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. "The overwhelming bulk of the evidence we have is that their efforts are focused on biological and chemical weapons," said John Bolton, undersecretary of state for arms control. |

| #4 Didn't we conclude yesterday that the terrorists are unlikely to be able to create a workable biological weapon, and that chemical weapons aren't nearly as effective as the scaremongers' hype? In fact, that the terrorists' best weapons are booms and bullets? If so, let them waste as much time as they please on seeking the unfindable....this generation's Philosopher's Stone. And may the search bring them much joy, as there shall -- in the end -- be no finding. |
