	Weapons of mass destruction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Weapons of mass destruction can be high explosives or nuclear, biological, chemical, and radiological weapons, but exclude the means of transporting or propelling the weapon where such means is a separable and divisible part of the weapon.
		Weapons of mass destruction, especially nuclear weapons, are rarely used because their use is essentially an "invitation" for a WMD retaliation, which in turn could escalate into a war so destructive it could easily destroy huge segments of the world's population.
		Weapons of mass destruction are used to justify the Bush Doctrine of pre-emptive strikes against "rogue states" thought to be in danger of possessing or developing them.

	Weapons of Mass Destruction...Inanot.com
		Weapons of mass destruction (WMD) are weapons designed to kill large numbers of people, typically targeting civilians and military personnel alike.

	Fairness & Accuracy In Reporting
		ABC was aware of this, but still chose this story as its lead news item for two days.
		But ABC's viewers were none the wiser: When the news was that ABC's "exclusive" had washed out, there was no mention of the story on the Monday or Tuesday broadcasts of World News Tonight.
		Remind ABC that retractions of false stories should be featured as prominently as the original reports, and ask that more caution be shown in reporting government claims.

	An overview of Chemical Weapons and the Toxin Ricin
		There are large-scale efforts underway to stop the use of such weapons and protect ourselves in the event of their use.
		A chemical weapon can attack the body’s nerves, lungs, skin or blood and chemical weapons are loosely classified as to the effects they cause.
		Probably the most devastating effect that a chemical weapon attack may have, however, is the panic and terror caused by an attack or even the threat of an attack.

	Arieh Stav: The Israeli Aspect of BMD
		The development of nuclear weapons requires a first class scientific infrastructure and considerable financial investment, but chemical (and biological) weapons are readily available, their technologies are simple and their cost very low.
		The rate of arming with ABC weapons and their delivery systems in the Middle East leaves no room for doubt concerning what is going to happen in the coming decade.
		Since surface-to-surface missiles are basically terror weapons against the civilian population, dispatched against towns with the intention of sowing destruction and causing panic, the hitting accuracy, Circular Error Probable (CEP) is of secondary importance, particularly in the case of weapons of mass destruction.

	CNN.com - ABC investigated over uranium smuggling report - Sep. 11, 2003
		The Justice Department is considering whether to bring charges against two ABC News employees who smuggled depleted uranium into the United States as part of a report on port security, government sources said.
		ABC said two producers packed the depleted uranium into a suitcase sent to Los Angeles aboard a container ship from the Indonesian capital of Jakarta.
		ABC said weapons-grade uranium would have given off a similar signature in the screening devices that officials use at American ports.

	Weapons of mass distortion
		It replaced "ABC weapons", for atomic, biological and chemical, which was neater, although already misleading as it conflated types of weaponry quite different in kind and in destructive capacity.
		Even supposing that nuclear weapons are uniquely horrible, the Iraq war and its aftermath have only served to confirm what Hans Blix learned, and what the International Institute for Strategic Studies said last summer: that Saddam had no fissile material to build atomic warheads.
		The truth is that "weapons of mass destruction" is a concept defined by the person using it.

	Parchin: Possible Nuclear Weapons-Related Site in Iran
		ABC News learned that US experts have assessed that this site may be involved in the research, testing, and possibly production of nuclear weapons.
		Such a bunker, which is partly buried, would allow the study of large explosions for a variety of purposes, including the development of nuclear weapons.
		According to US officials, referenced in media accounts, the concern is that this bunker could be where Iran would test a full-scale mock-up of a nuclear explosive using natural or depleted uranium as a surrogate of a highly enriched uranium core.

	Conventional weapon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The phrase is a retronym, used to describe the arsenal that existed before the other categories of weapons were heavily researched and developed in the 20th century.
		Although the term 'conventional weapons' is primarily used to refer to explosive weapons the UN Convention on Conventional Weapons also includes controls on blinding laser and incendiary weapons.

	NRDC: The ABC News Nuclear Smuggling Experiment: The Sequel
		In September 2002 ABC News smuggled a 15-pound (6.8-kilogram) cylinder of depleted uranium metal, loaned by NRDC, into the United States, and televised the story on the first anniversary of the September 2001 terrorist attacks.
		For ABC to safely store and transport the 15-pound depleted uranium cylinder it was necessary to reduce the dose rate at the surface with shielding.
		Had the 15-pound uranium cylinder been weapon-grade highly enriched uranium instead of depleted uranium (which is not suitable for nuclear weapons), the dose rate at the surface of the highly enriched uranium would have been more than 100 times higher.

	Despite Lack of Proof & Contrary Evidence, Nets Insist “Bush Knew” WMD Not Found \| NewsBusters.org
		ABC News has even reported that President Bush knew what he was saying about those trailers was false.
		The purported mobile weapons labs, the ones that Colin Powell cited at the U.N., one of the most vivid arguments supporting U.S. military intervention in Iraq, finally located by allied forces just weeks after Baghdad fell, cited then as proof that there was too WMD in that country.
		Most importantly, the Post and ABC stories omit that THREE teams investigated the trailers, and two of the three thought they were weapons labs, even though that view did not prevail in the long term.

	The World Today - Alkatiri denies involvement in weapons transfer
		But it found no evidence the former Prime Minister Mari Alkatiri was personally involved in the illegal transfer of weapons, as some have alleged, although it suspects he knew of the weapons transfer and should face further investigation to see if he bears any criminal responsibility.
		ANNE BARKER: At the very least, the UN criticises Mari Alkatiri for failing to use his authority to denounce the weapons transfer, given the credible information that his own government ministers were involved.
		I tried to visit the places of where the weapon was supposed to be, and I was (inaudible) the weapon (inaudible).

		Trade with Iraq was forbidden until the country was certified as being free of ABC weapons.

		The research was conducted by nuclear scientists at the Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore weapons laboratories and reviewed by an outside panel of nuclear physicists and weapons experts known as the JASON panel.
		Some nuclear weapons watchdogs said the new finding undermines the Bush administration's plan to build a factory to make new plutonium pits and its program to replace current warheads with more robust designs for longer reliability.
		These factors include the aging of high explosives and other organic components in the weapons and corrosion of weapons parts.

	Call for Japan to consider nuclear weapons. 16/10/2006. ABC News Online
		A senior figure in Japan's Government says the country must consider developing nuclear weapons to defend itself in the wake of North Korea's nuclear test.
		The taboo of Japan talking about owning atomic weapons is apparently one of the casualties of last week's nuclear test by North Korea.
		The head of the governing Liberal Democratic Party's policy council says the idea must be actively discussed, although Shoichi Nakagawa says he is not advocating the idea.

		We've had this unbelievably powerful weapon, nuclear weapons, since what 55 years now plus, and it's not been fired in anger since 1945.
		RUMSFELD: The answer was that that we ought to be very proud of the record of humanity that we have not used those weapons for 55 years.
		But there are so many ramifications of the use of a nuclear weapon that I don't believe that that would be a serious option because I think there are so many other ways we could achieve the goals we seek.

	AN ABC - AGAINST NUCLEAR WAR
		Naturally, all nuclear weapons of one's own national government and all plants for their construction should also be destroyed - by the people themselves or under their supervision and that of the world public.
		Nuclear devices are anti-people "weapons" or mass murder devices, in a situation where the people are rendered powerless and helpless, The bomb-makers and users would be rightful targets but even they could not be safety be attacked with nuclear weapons without hurting innocents.
		Thus, those condemned to die through the use of nuclear "weapons", without having been accused of anything, without having had a hearing, may hear of their death sentence only when it is already too late, when they are already being exterminated as if they were a pest.

	Weapons of Mass Distortion
		If the first casualty of war is truth, then language itself sustains the heaviest collateral damage, as Orwell used to point out (before "collateral damage" proved his point by entering the vocabulary of poisonous euphemism).
		Certainly he possessed the biological and chemical material in ABC, although here again the "W" in WMD is notably misleading: "weaponized" was just what this material was not, a fact which makes the pretext for war even more phony.
		Now there's another: "We have defense forces, you have dangerous arms, he has weapons of mass destruction." As usual, it depends who you are.

	Malta Today • ABC weapons components shipped through Malta
		An Austrian intelligence official has revealed that Maltese companies may be unwittingly playing a transshipment role for components used in the assembly of atomic, biological and chemical (ABC) weapons.
		It adds that in several cases firms that were involved in illegally transmitting components used for ABC weapons technology had already attracted attention in this respect and are now being monitored by the security authorities.
		Malta's possible role is clearly not in the production of ABC weapons or their components, but rather through the participation of Maltese firms in the trade.

		The commander of these three special companies of the ABC defense regiment, Col. Eliezer, had been trained in the U.S. for such a job.
		To deal with problems by using weapons of mass destruction, no matter under what circumstances, is no joke.
