WMD charges don't help either. A pipe-bomb has been considered a WMD for a decade now. The term has been cheapened so much some schools ban the term as useless and carrying almost no information.

- mpyne 14y agoA pipe bomb has been legally considered WMD for almost two decades now. They didn't change the meaning for 9/11 or Iraq.
